There will be no daily Countdown to Valentine's Day this year at Moongem Comics due to several reasons. However, I will be posting random items every few days or so to celebrate Valentine's Day. Today's post features the first three covers plus the cover gallery to Dynamite Entertainment's Red Sonja Valentine's Special 2022. The story has a little bit of romance and a lot of bloody gore.

Goodnight, Meat Loaf
Very sad news for Meat Loaf: Bat Out of Hell singer dead at 74. Not only was he a great singer but a great actor too. I have worn out my Rocky Horror Picture Show soundtrack album on cassette and vhs movie along with my Bat Out of Hell cd. I used to have almost all of his albums on cassettes but I wore most of them out to the point of breaking. There will never be another Meat Loaf and the world is a much sadder for it.

Thanks to Batgirl: First Look at Leslie Grace in Costume. I actually like the costume despite what everyone else is saying. Now I have a reason to get HBO MAX.

Miniature Black Suit Superman Figurine
This miniature black suit Superman figurine is part of the Justice League 2021 Micro Collection set. He is based on the Zack Snyder's Justice League movie. which I have yet to see. Yes, he does look like he is leaning to one side.

Miniature Cyborg Figurine
This miniature Cyborg figurine is a new one for the Justice League 2021 Micro Collection set. He is based on Ray Fisher from Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice and Justice League. To me, this version always looked more machine than Victor Stone. I still think he belongs more with the Teen Titans and I would have loved seeing any of the green heroes (Green Arrow, Green Lantern or Martian Manhunter) in the movies instead..

Miniature Armored Batman Figurine
I was at the local Dollar Tree a few days ago when I saw that they had the new Justice League figurines from Micro Collection. Three of the six are repackaged versions of the miniature Dark Batman figurine, miniature Superman figurine and miniature Wonder Woman figurine. The differences in packages are subtle with the new 2021 versions having the Micro Collection logo in the lower left hand corner and the Mattel logo in the lower right hand corner above the DC Comics logo. This miniature Armored Batman figurine looks like the version in the Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice movie. It's a nice Batman variant although I wish they had a different version of Aquaman and Wonder Woman too.

Women Wednesday: Paulina Grace Wearing Super Bikini
Let's start 2022 off with two very hot pinups of Paulina Grace wearing a super bikini. She gets my vote for a Hispanic Supergirl with tattoos.

Women Wednesday: Wonder Woman on DC vs Vampires #3 Cover
Wonder Woman is on the cover of DC vs Vampires #3 out this week. Yes, she appears to be battling Green Lantern. If you haven't picked up this limited horror series from DC Comics yet, then this would be a good time to do so especially if you can still find the first two issues.

Hot Wheels Batmobile 2020 Bats Card #5: Batman: The Animated Series
I think that this Hot Wheels Batmobile 2020 Bats Card #5: Batman: The Animated Series marks my fifty-second Batman-related vehicle. That includes cars, jets and whatever the heck that tumbler thing was. I picked it up at the local Walmart's along with the Hot Wheels Batmobile 2020 Bats Card #3: Comic Version. It's hard to tell by the picture below but it's dark maroon with red strips.

Hot Wheels Batmobile 2020 Bats Card #3: Comic Version
I'm calling this the Hot Wheels Batmobile 2020 Bats Card #3: Comic Version because it's on a mostly black card and there are bats in the upper right hand corner. The bat symbol with the yellow around it is in the center of the card. I picked this up last week along with #5, which I will post about tomorrow. I took the picture with my tablet so the lighting is not great. It appears to have neon green on the wheels while the Batmobile itself is all black. The only information about the series is that it's one of the Hot Wheels Themed Entertainment sets that includes Disney, the Muppets, Fast & Furious, Tokyo 2020 Olympics and Batman. This is the only one that I found in a bin at the local Dillons store.

Harry Potter PEZ
This is the Harry Potter PEZ dispenser that I picked up with the Hermione Granger PEZ dispenser. Like her, he is also from 2020 and is based on the book version. He also comes with raspberry, cherry and lemon flavored PEZ candy.
Here is a picture that I found online to show what he looks like out of the package:

Women Wednesday: Hermione Granger PEZ
I picked up a Hermione Granger PEZ dispenser at the local Walmart's last week. This is the book version and not the movie version, which I do not have. The store had several of her and Harry Potter but no Ron Weasley. The trio came out last year but I found them in the Christmas candy aisle this year. She comes with raspberry, cherry and lemon flavored PEZ candy. This is the first picture that I took with my new tablet that I also got last week (it's still not as good as my digital camera but that may be due to the lightning).
The following found image is what the Hermione Granger PEZ dispenser would look like out of the packaging:

WTF AdSense
I just got an email from AdSense stating that Moongem Comics got flagged for Adult: Sexual Content. However, they won't say which post was offending them. If any person is offended by any post that I have made here, then direct them at me and be sure to email JamdinBard which post offended you. If my posts about Bettie Page, Elvira, Vampirella and other sexy women offend you, then move on to another blog. I might have to look for another host and I really can't afford my own hosting at the moment.

Flash Running Temporary Tattoo
This Flash running temporary tattoo was picked up at a China buffet restaurant on last month's road trip. The back doesn't tell what set it belongs to but it did state that it was number four of ten. Luckily, it also stated that it was distributed by A&A Global Industries. According to their website, the set is simply called DC Comics Character Tattoos. This will probably be the only one I get of the set since it might be a while before I get back to that restaurant.
Below is the entire DC Comics Character Tattoos set that features Wonder Woman, Batman, Superman, Flash, Green Lantern, Cyborg, Supergirl, Batgirl, Harley Quinn and Joker. The DC Comics characters look like they are from a cartoon but I can't place it. The Batman, Haley Quinn and Joker look like the ones used for the Countdown to Valentine's Day 2021 Day 12: Batman Valentines With Tattoos.

Marvel Super Hero Adventures Sticker #12: Floating Avengers
The final Marvel Super Hero Adventures sticker that I got in the now gone vending machine is what I call the floating Avengers. This is also the twelfth and final sticker in the set based on the Disney cartoon series. Characters include Thor, Hulk, Falcon, Black Widow, Captain America, Iron Man and Spider-Man. I actually have two of these stickers and you can complete the top and bottom floating pictures of Thor and Hulk. It's kind of funny that the top of Hulk's head is on the bottom of the sticker while the rest of him is on top.

Marvel Super Hero Adventures Sticker #11: Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends
The eleventh sticker in the Marvel Super Hero Adventures set is what I call Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends. Peter Parker aka Spider-Man is shown with Miles Morales aka Ultimate Spider-Man on one side and Gwen Stacy aka Spider[Gwen on the other side. The background graphics of the city buildings and black spider is pretty cool too. The other thing cooler would have been to seen Spider-Man's original amazing friends, which were Firestar and Iceman.

Marvel Super Hero Adventures Sticker #10: Spider-Man and the Avengers
There are a lot of characters on this Marvel Super Hero Adventures Sticker #10: Spider-Man and the Avengers. There is Spider-Man and his amazing friends, Gwen Stacey aka Spider-Gwen and Miles Morales aka the Ultimate Spider-Man. The Avengers are represented by the Hulk, Black Widow, Thor, Captain America, Black Panther, Antman, Ms. Marvel, Wasp and Iron Man. Whew, that's a lot of characters for a vending machine sticker based on a Disney cartoon series.

Women Wednesday: Marvel Super Hero Adventures Sticker #8: Ms. Marvel
I could have posted this yesterday but I thought it would make for a good Women Wednesday post. Kamala Khan as Ms. Marvel is featured on Marvel Super Hero Adventures Sticker #8. She is voiced by Aliza Vellani on the Disney Channel cartoon (fans of CW's iZombie will know her as Marcy Khan). I have yet to read any comics or seen any cartoons with this version of Ms. Marvel.
