Today is my sixty-first birthday and I would love to celebrate it with this cool Batman Forever Heart Tin of Chocolates at Amazon. Unfortunately, there are only ten pieces of candy and I won't be sharing. You'll just have to get your own and you get to keep the heart-shaped tin too.

Seems fitting that I spotlight this Tiffany Valentine Funko Pop at Amazon for this week's Women Wednesday post. The deadly doll is dressed in red and holding a heart-shaped box. I doubt there are chocolates in that box.

This week's Monster Monday spotlights Monsters in Love Coloring Book at Amazon. You'll find various monsters, skeletons, mummies and ghosts to color. Okay, you might not have to color the ghosts unless you want them to match your non-white sheets. The horror in this is suitable for all ages and is cute to boot.

DC Comics released Superman: Chains of Love Special #1 last week. The cover features Creeper kissing Livewire with Superman in the background reaching out. There is a bonus story titled "Bill Zarro's World" that is hilarious. Here is the official summary:
"Love is in the air — also death — in Superman: Chains of Love Special! Step aside Daily Planet — a new news force is taking the city of Metropolis by storm! When the former felon Livewire is released from prison, an unholy alliance and (frankly, wholesome) romance with the Creeper is forged in the fires of a super-villain battle! But with two of Metropolis's most notorious shock-jock media personalities getting together comes the debut of a new outlet to rival even that of the Daily Planet. Witness the rise of the Wiretap and some shocking surprises in the Superman: Chains of Love Special
Dynamite Entertainment rleased Supernatural Valentine's Day Special 2026 ealier this week. Here is the offical summary:
"LOVE IS STRONGER THAN DEATH — AND JUST AS TERRIFYING! Sam and Dean Winchester know a thing or two about love and loss. After all, they've abandoned any pretense of a normal life and hit the road to hunt down the entity that took the lives of two of their loved ones. So if anyone can understand the kind of heartache that would cause a person to turn to demonic forces in order to bring someone back from the dead, it's the brothers Winchester. But just because something is understandable doesn't make it advisable — and it certainly doesn't make it safe! In fact, you can pretty much count on things going wrong in unexpectedly spectacular ways when you meddle with the fundamental forces of mortality. In this case, trying to command a minor minion of the underworld has resulted in the summoning of an ancient and uncontrollable goddess of desire. The rampage that ensues embodies the true power of love — and only Sam and Dean can stop it!"
DC Comics released Teen Titans Go #12 earlier this week. The cover features Raven, Beast Boy, Robin, Cyborg and Starfire. The story is titled "ValenTeenTitans Go." As a bonus, there is a sneak peek at Kid Flash: Going Rogue, a graphic novel for kids now on sale. Here is the official summary:
"Everybody knows that Robin has a crush on Starfire (except for maybe Starfire), so of course, the Titans are braced for any wacky hijinks in February. But when Starfire opens a mystery package full of plushies and hearts and bouquets, she’s shocked to find a note that says, “From your secret admirer…to Raven.”"

Here are the last two of the Lego Minifigures: Spider-Man Across the Spider-Verse at Amazon. The Miles Morales Prowler figure has oversized gloves and a disc that may be a shield or a manhole cover.
The Werewolf Spider-Man figure is by far my favorite one. He does not come with any accessories, but he has a wicked tail.

Denial, anger, bargaining, depression… Maggie Sutherland has worked her way through all the stages of grief and is finally ready to accept the harsh reality that she really is Red Sonja, and that if she is going to survive in the Hyborian Age she must rise to meet its challenges — and that means learning how to kill her enemies before they can kill her!"
Harley Quinn X Elvira #4 comes out today from DC Comics and Dynamite. Once again, the main cover artists are Amanda Conner, Chad Hardin, Joseph Michael Linsner and Ben Caldwell. The interior art was done by Amanda Conner and Juan Samu. The story was written by Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti. Here is the official summary:
"OUT OF THE FRYING PAN AND INTO THE FIRE! With things getting too hot to handle back in Brooklyn, Elvira and Harley abscond to the cooler climes of Transylvania to crash with one of Elvira’s best buddies in his tastefully appointed castle. But despite their reputation as old-school hedonists, the Count’s already-invited guests don’t much care for this pair of interlopers — and they’ve got some decidedly medieval ideas for how to deal with party crashers!"
Note: This my 260th Elvira post.Here are two more Lego Minifigures: Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse at Amazon. The Spider-Man India figure has two cups and a cat wearing a mask.
Web-Slinger has to be one of my favorite Lego minifigures. The cowboy comes with a hat, bandanna, a shoulder cape printed with webs and a spider, a lasso and a horse wearing a mask.

Dark Horse Comics is celebrating 40 years and released Touched by a Demon #1 last week. The cover features Bifrons and Zuzu. The story is a interesting mix of humor, horror and drama. Here is the official summary:

Looking for a shot at redemption, he sets up shop on Earth as a life coach for mortals, determined to rack up enough good deeds to earn his way back upstairs. With help from his loyal assistant Zuzu and a soul named Elaine, he tries to guide humans toward salvation.
