Women Wednesday: Supergirl: Survive #1

DC Comics released Supergirl: Survive #1 today. Here is the official summary:

"ETHAN PARKER, GRIFFIN SHERIDAN, AND ROD REIS TAKE SUPERGIRL ON A NEW ELSEWORLDS JOURNEY! Kara Zor-El lives a life of small problems. How are you supposed to hold a floppy little baby like her new cousin Kal? Who should she ask to the spring formal? And when will her father and her uncle Jor-El stop squabbling? But the planet Krypton has big problems… like the militaristic dictator Zod ruthlessly crushing dissent and threatening to unleash the planet’s most dangerous weapons on the opposition. And when things boil over and Krypton begins to burn, Kara and her infant cousin will find themselves trapped together in a prototype rocket, struggling to survive in a hostile universe that doesn’t care if they live or die… and which might prefer the latter!"

Toy Tuesday: Hot Wheels 2026 Metalflake Purple Tooned Classic TV Batmobile

I picked up this Hot Wheels 2026 Metalflake Purple Tooned Classic TV Batmobile last Friday on a road trip to Hutchinson, Kansas. I was surprised that their Walmart's had two of them since our local one in Pratt, Kansas has none. The color of the photos may be a little off since I had to install the new version of GIMP to adjust the brightness and contrast of the photos. This is #4 of the Batman 2026 subset and #144 in the main set. I now have four different Tooned versions.

The metalflake purple color reminds me of Batgirl's costume especially when I shine my cell phone's flashlight on it. I love the red chrome on the wheels.
