Women Wednesday: Wonder Woman Forever Stamp

I actually found this canceled Wonder Woman Forever Stamp in a grab bag of 300 stamps that I picked up on my last road trip a few months ago. This is from 2016 and the only comic-related stamp that I found in the bag. Yes, I have a small stamp collection. Well, it's bigger now thanks to the grab bag. I still have the Supergirl stamp on my Superman Bulletin Board.

Final Faction First Impact: The Origin Story #1

To my suprise, I found Final Faction First Impact: The Origin Story #1 at the local Dollar Tree this morning. The comic book was sealed in a cheap plastic bag that I quickly discarded and is based on the cartoon, which is based on the action figures. I never paid them any attention but I guess they came out in 2021. The inside of the front cover features photos of the Final Faction action figures and accessories. They also include the space aliens known as the Kharns. There are no ads in the comic book but the inside of the back cover features ad parodies such as Final Faction Cola and Sarge's Cookie Company. The comic book is only twenty pages long and I can't remember the last time I bought a comic book for $1.25. The story and art has the feel of the old G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero but with aliens. I have scanned and shared the front and back covers along with the first three pages below. The issue has no publisher information but I can only assume that it was published by Greenbier International, Inc. since they also produce the Final Faction toy line.

Women Wednesday: Sersi Funko Pop

I was lucky enough to quickly build up enough reward points for this Sersi Funko Pop that was on clearance at Disney Movie Insiders. She is #728 and is based on Marvel's Eternals movie. I received it last week but not in time for the Women Wednesday post. Her body is really tiny while her head is really huge. This causes problems trying to stand her up outside of the box. It also didn't help that the huge head is bent backwards a little bit thanks to the spring. She is still a pretty cool figure and will go next to my Thena Funko Pop that I also got from Disney Movie Insiders. She is played by Gemma Chan in the movie.
