Hot Wheels 2024 Batman: The Animated Series Yellow and Black Batmobile

I found four Hot Wheels Batmobiles last Tuesday at the local Dillons store. Among this was this Hot Wheels 2024 Batman: The Animated Series Yellow and Black Batmobile. It's #5 of the Batman subset and #177 of the main set. It's basic black with yellow trim on the body and wheels (the trim on the car looks more orange to me). The card shows colored lights but the actual car is all black. The card is a little bent up especially on the upper right corner since it was in a bin with a bunch of other Hot Wheels. This is only the fourth Hot Wheels Batmobile from Batman: The Animated Series that I have so it's a nice addition to my collection.

Women Wednesday: DC vs. Vampires: World War V #2 Wonder Woman Cover

I thought about waiting to post this cover of DC vs. Vampires: World War V #2 next month. However, this issue just came out today and I needed something to post for this week's Women Wednesday. Besides, who could resist a vampire Wonder Woman holding a sword to Alfred Pennyworth.

Hot Wheels Gray Batman Forever Batmobile 2023 Edition

I finally found the Hot Wheels Gray Batman Forever Batmobile 2023 Edition at the local Dillons. It was hiding in the big bin by the health and beauty section. This is a nice find because it has been a dry spell around here lately. Thankfully, I already found the regular black edition here.

Smell Like Wolverine with Adamantium Scrub from Dr. Squatch

Yes, you too can now smell like Wolverine with Adamantium Scrub from Dr. Squatch. The gritty soap is supposed to smell like berserker rage. This should have been available during this summer's comic conventions so everybody would be smelling like cypress, juniper and moss. Click on the link below for more information, bub.

Women Wednesday: Jemma Palmer Exposing Her Supergirl Abs

Yeah, I have a hard spot for sexy women wearing glasses especially when they are wearing nerdy t-shirts:

Daredevil #26 Cover (March 1967)

I'm not sure why Daredevil #26 (March 1978) was picked as the cover for September in my Marvel 2024 16-month calendar. If you think that Stilt-Man is an odd name, then you might get a chuckle out of Leap-Frog, who is on trial in this issue.

Black Panther DVD

This Black Panther DVD is the last one I bought at the local Dollar General last Wednesday. I have seen this one all the way through on one of the movie channels. I picked it up because it was only $4.95 and I didn't have it yet. You might have noticed by now that I don't buy a lot of DVDs unless they are on sale.

Avengers: Endgame DVD

This Avengers: Endgame DVD is another one that I picked up for $4.95 at the local Dollar General last Wednesday. The cover is another one crowded with Marvel superheroes including Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Captain Marvel Hawkeye, Black Widow and Rocket Raccoon among others. I always catch the end of the movie on tv so I'm glad that I finally have the DVD so I can watch it all.

Avengers: Infinity War DVD

Avengers: Infinity War is another Marvel movie that I have yet to watch all the way through in one setting. I usually miss the beginning so I was glad to find this DVD at the local Dollar General. The price was only $4.95 and now I can finally watch it all the way through. There are so many superheroes from Doctor Strange to Spider-Man on the front cover that I couldn't tag all of them.

Ant-Man and the Wasp DVD

I picked up this Ant-Man and the Wasp DVD at the local Dollar General for $4.95 on Wednesday. I have seen bits and pieces of the movie on the movie channels but I always miss the beginning. Now I can watch it from start to finish.

Treasure Hunt Doctor Strange DVD

I hit the jackpot at the local Dollar General yesterday. Among the items that I found was this Treasure Hunt Doctor Strange DVD for $2.95. It doesn't have the case and is previously viewed but I couldn't resist at that price. I watched the movie on one of the movie channels but never bought the DVD.
