Superman Batman Candy Sticks

Happy Easter. I picked up a bag of Superman Batman Candy Sticks that I found in the Easter section at the local Dollar Tree. I was supposed to get 25 boxes but got 26 boxes. Each box had two candy sticks and some of the images were used with the DC Trinity Candysticks that I picked up last year for Halloween at the local Dollar General. They were made in Colombia and distributed by World Confections.

Here is the front of the Superman Batman Candy Sticks bag:

Here is the back of the Superman Batman Candy Sticks bag:

My bag had 14 Superman boxes (4 green, 8 red and yellow, 2 red). All of them feature his upper torso with two sides featuring extreme close up shots of his face:

There were only 12 Batman boxes in my bag (3 blue, 2 red and orange, 7 yellow). None of the images featured extreme close up shots of his face.

I am a little disappointed that none of the boxes had both DC superheroes on them. I guess they didn't want me to call them World's Finest Candy Sticks.

Seven Soldiers of Victory Returns in Convergence

The Seven Soldiers of Victory aka the Law's Legionnaires returns to DC Comics in Convergence: World's Finest according to Levitz Bids Farewell to Seven Soldiers and Scribbly Jibbet in Convergene: World's Finest. Paul Levitz wrote the issue while Joe Rubenstein and Shannon Wheeler provided the artwork. The group will consist of Vigilante, Crimson Avenger, Star-Spangled Kid, Stripsey, Shining Knight, Green Arrow and Speedy (Wing appears to be missing from this version).

I find it odd that they would be appearing in the World's Finest issue instead of Leading Comics, which was the golden age comic where the various superheroes first debuted as the Seven Soldiers of Victory.

Yes, Scribbly Jibbet, who first appeared in All-American Comics #1 (1939), also returns again in the issue.
