DC Comics Pulls Joker Variant Cover For Batgirl #41

The latest big news in the comic world is that Rafael Albuquerque asked DC Comics to pull Joker variant cover that he did for Batgirl #41 after getting death threats. I have read The Killing Joke years ago and I'm not a big fan of it. While I personally don't like the subject matter, I'm against censorship and bullying so here is the cover art:

I'm more surprised that no one has bitched about the naked Joker that Bill Sienkiewicz did for Green Arrow #41 even though his privates are covered:

New Costumes For Flash and Green Arrow Too

Yesterday, I posted about how Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman and Green Lantern are getting new costumes in June. Looks like Flash and Green Arrow are receiving new looks as well in #41 of their own titles.

I'm not really digging Flash's armor boots but the rest looks cool:

Oliver's pants looks a little odd but that just may be me:

New Costumes For Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman and Green Lantern

According to Newsarama's EVERY June 2015 New DCU Solicitation - Including WE ARE ROBIN, Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman and Green Lantern are getting new costumes.

Superman is also getting short hair while wearing jeans and a t-shirt with the S-shield (this is actually a throwback from a few years ago):

Wonder Woman is getting more armor plus leggings and bracelet blades (I like the longer boots):

Batman will be sporting full bunny armor (yeah, I don't get it either):

Green Lantern will be a renegade with a hoodie (this look reminds me a little bit of the Spectre):

I noticed that all the changes happen in June 2015 with #41 of their titles.

New Series For Dr. Fate In June

Happy Friday the 13th. I could have done a post filled with black cats, ladders and some maniac in a hockey mask but I decided to post news about Dr. Fate instead. He's getting a new series with the first issue hitting the stands on June 17, 2015.

According to Newsarama, Dr. Fate #1 will be written by Paul Levitz with one of two covers by Ibrahim Moustafa.

"You thought global warming was bad? Anubis, the Egyptian Lord of Dead, is preparing the flood to wash the world away. Standing in his way? An overwhelmed Brooklyn med student who’s been handed the helmet of Fate, without an instruction manual."

Thrift Store Find: Iron Man USB Memory Figurine

I found an Iron Man USB memory figurine from 2011 still in the package for fifty cents on Saturday. The original price was $19.99 at Alco's. There's a small two dollar price sticker over the original store price tag so I'm guessing that someone tried to sell it at a yard sale. There is exclusive bonus content including a free one month subscription to Marvel Digital Comics plus cover gallery, wallpapers and desktop icons.
