Women Wednesday: Valentine's Day Edition

Okay, Valentine's Day is not until next Tuesday but this gives you guys a reminder to get your mate something special early. Here are some women from DC Comics on Valentine's Day cards:

Digging New Spider-Man Costume

Everybody has been talking about The Avengers Super Bowl trailer but I am actually more excited about the New Spidey trailer offers harder look at Peter Parker and the Lizard. I am digging the new Spider-Man costume after seeing him in action.

Powerful Man At Superhero City

Power Man...er, Powerful Man is now available at Superhero City as a Special Edition Kinetic Ability card.

This cat is so special that even his jacket becomes a source of power.

Women Wednesday: Silk Spectre

Silk Spectre is getting her own four-part mini-series from DC Comics as part of Before Watchmen prequel event according to Blastr's DC releases details (+ 8 pics) of controversial Watchmen prequel. The writer will be Darwyn Cooke with Amanda Conner doing the artwork.

Space Ape At Superhero City

I almost made a Monkey Monday post yesterday but I resisted the temptation. Space Ape is a Special Edition Kinetic Ability card available for 75 Merit Points at Superhero City.

Scary Saturday: Angelique Lives

The following panel is from Dark Shadows #3 (January 2012) from Dynamite Entertainment:

Captain Marvel No More

Captain Marvel from DC Comics will be renamed Shazam according to Newsarama's Exclusive: GEOFF JOHNS Hopes Lightning Strikes SHAZAM! I am a little saddened by the name change. Too bad that Captain Thunder was not used instead.

Women Wednesday: Miranda Kerr As Wonder Woman

Miranda Kerr appears in a costume inspried by Wonder Woman on the cover of the fashion magazine, Grazia. She is a supermodel and wife of actor Orlando Bloom. You can watch a video of the photo shoot and read the article at Miranda Kerr: Australia's new Wonder Woman.

I wonder if those are blue suede shoes that she is wearing.

Mini Purple Hulk At Superhero City

Rage is a mascot that one can purchase in Superhero City when they hit level 225 (I'm currently at level 211 but I do have the money to buy him). He looks very much like the Hulk but purple with green shorts. I love his heart over crossbones tattoo on his right shoulder. He is animated a little bit but you have to go to the online game to view him in action.

Super Deformed Beast Boy And Robin Figures

I actually bought these Super Deformed Beast Boy and Robin figures for a dollar apiece at a local store a few years ago. They were produced by Bandai and are based on the characters from the Teen Titans animated series that started in 2003 and ended in 2005 on the Cartoon Network. I finally popped them free and put them in front of my printer but I have to remember to move them so the paper will not jam when it comes out. Anyway, both have arms that move up and down at the shoulders but Robin's arms also twist at the biceps. Their torsos can be pressed down and they pop up when you pressed the button on the front. Sound is activated from that same button but it can be turned off with another button on the bottom of each figure. Beast Boy says "I am a party animal!" and Robin says "This ends...now!" They also have bobble heads. Beast Boy is my favorite one because I have always liked the character and finding him at the local store was a big surprise.

Comic Review: Princeless #3

Princeless #3 (December 2011) from Action Lab Entertainment picks up where the previous issue left off with Princess Adrienne being carried upside down with her bloomers showing by her dragon, Sparky. She believes that it is time to find a blacksmith and get some armor that fits her. Instead of finding the smith, she finds his daughter, Bedelia Smith, who shows off her women warrior's collection that includes the sonya, the diana and the warrior princess. The scene and conversation that the two girls have is hilarious. Princess Adrienne convinces her to make something less revealing and more practical for her. After she gets measured, she steps out to get some gold to pay for the armor so she puts on the diana armor that only comes with a rope. Wearing the skimpy armor draws some unwanted attention. Sparky gives her some treasure and on the way back runs into two soldiers that are looking for her. Princess Adrienne manages to defeat the two armed with only a rope before running back into the smith's building, where her new specially made armor is waiting for her. I have to say that the new armor is very cool looking. Princeless #3 gets an A+ just for the introduction of Bedelia Smith and her women warrior's collection of armor.

Thrift Store Find: Marshal Bravestarr Action Figure

This marks the one thousandth post at Moongem Comics. I found an eight inch Marshal Bravestarr action figure at a local thrift store yesterday afternoon. He cost me fifty cents which was a steal even though he is missing his hat, accessories and comic book.
