Super Sunday: DC's Kal-El-Fornia Love Special

DC released DC's Kal-El-Fornia Love one shot summer special last week. The cover features Superman, Lois Lane, Superboy, Supergirl, Power Girl and other members of the Super Family.

Here's the official summery: "Brighter than a Hollywood star, more powerful than Silicon Valley tech, able to leap tall redwood trees in a single bound… it’s DC’s Kal-El-fornia love! The whole Super-Family is hitting the road in a series of action-packed adventures across the great state of California. Supergirl’s day at the beach is interrupted by a demonic creature from the deep and John Constantine! Jon and Conner Kent team up to wrangle an escaped beast in the Redwoods! Bizarro (literally) crashes an audition for a major motion picture! And join Superman and Lois as a kaiju from the Pacific Ocean comes for their family vacation! The Summer of Superman is heating up, so slather on some sunscreen and snag your latest beach read!"

There are eight stories within this anthology special that includes the following: Superman in "See Spot Fly", Jimmy Olsen in "The Gorilla Ex-Wife of Jimmy Olsen", Power Girl in "Before Sunrise" (Ice guest stars), Bizarro in "Against the Wind" (guest starring Green Lantern Guy Gardner), Lois Lane in "Bite the Apple" (Wonder Woman briefly appears), Steel in "Across the Room", the Superboys (Conner Kent and Jon Kent) in "Who Do You Belong To", and Supergirl in "Something in the Water" (special team up with John Constantine).

Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 Bizarro

Bizarro is the second Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 action figure that I found last week. He's so ugly that he's cute. What makes him really cool is that he has a fabric cape (non-removable, of course). Bizarro's accessory is a parking meter that he ripped up from the ground. His face and hands looks like they should glow in the dark but they don't.

Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 Wrapper and Insert

I picked up three Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 mystery bags on Tuesday at the local Walmart's. Each package was $4.72, and they only had less than a dozen left. I didn't even see these before so I'm not exactly sure when they were stocked but the insert has a 2023 copyright date. Each action figure comes with an accessory.

The wrapper shows Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman in the lower left-hand corner. I'm only showing the front of the wrapper because the back is too shiny for my scanner to pick up the small print.


The outer side of the insert also shows Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman along with a gorilla with a battle axe, a female Troll and dinosaurs.


The inner side of the insert is the checklist for all nine action figures in the Imaginext DC Super Friends Series 1 set. The set includes Swamp Thing, Bane, Man-Bat, Batman, Martian Manhunter, Superboy Prime, Bizarro, Aquaman and Blue Beetle. Swamp Thing and Bane as glow in the dark features. Notice that there is a Batman action figure but no Superman and Wonder Woman figures.

Women Wednesday: Harley Quinn: Road Trip Special

There are several reasons why you should pick up Harley Quinn: Road Trip Special #1 (November 2015). First up is this cover featuring Catwoman, Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy:
Cover A of Harley Quinn: Road Trip Special #1 from DC Comics
The second reason is because of this cover featuring Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn and Catwoman in bikinis along with Bizarro sticking his head out of the trailer:
Cover B of Harley Quinn: Road Trip Special #1 from DC Comics
The third reason is because the story is full of fun and weirdness:

And the last reason is because Bizarro and Jimmy Olsen both show up:

Beware that this is not a kiddie book for there are some subtle nudity and adult humor in addition to the scantily clad women (I would rate this issue PG-13).
