Women Wednesday: Alison Angel With Spider-Man

I am changing the Women Wrestling Wednesday feature into Women Wednesday so I can show the fair sex doing something other than just wrestling. Today's pictures features the sexy Alison Angel with Spider-Man and the Green Goblin.

New Amazing Spider-Man Portfolios And Notebooks

I picked up the new Amazing Spider-Man portfolios and notebooks when I picked up the new ones with the characters from DC Comics that I posted about on Friday. While I found four different portfolios, I could only find two different notebooks. I really like the first one since the background looks real and Spider-Man is almost life like (Venom on the other hand does not). The last one features Spidey swinging away from some of his greatest foes: Green Goblin, Vulture, Doc Octopus, Electro, Rhino and Sandman.

New DC Comics Portfolios And Notebooks

I picked up the new DC Comics portfolios (aka pocket folders) and notebooks at the local Super Wally World today. The covers include the following: Batman and Joker, Batman and Aquaman, Batman with Aquaman, Superman and the Flash (the back of the portfolio has the Super Powers logo) and Wonder Woman.

Yesterday's Thrift Store Find: Adventures of Tintin Volume 5

I found The Adventures of Tintin Volume 5 yesterday at a local thrift store for a dollar. The hardback collects the following three adventures: "Land of Black Gold", "Destination Moon" and "Explorers on the Moon". I was surprised that it was it in good condition considering that this was a used book.


I remember watching the Tintin cartoon on tv back in the early Nineties but I never read any of the comic strips so this is indeed a treat. If you want your own copy, then you can get one using the following:

Ryan Reynolds Is Green Lantern

Newsarama posted news that Ryan Renolds Cast as Hal Jordan in the live action Green Lantern movie that will start filming in January, 2010. He is no stranger to comic book movies for he appeared as Hannibal King in Blade: Trinity and Deadpool in Wolverine: Origins.

Boris Karloff Tales of Mystery #25 and Wonder Woman #188

You may wonder what these two comics have in common. Other than the fact that both were originally sold for fifteen cents, they have nothing in common. However, I did find them at the first local community flea market this morning. There are not very many flea markets around here so I try to go to all that I can. Most of the vendors that usually sell "homemade" candles, jewelry, perfume and soap at the local craft stores were there. I found one table that had about a dozen comics spread out. Most were Disney comics that were around ten dollars. I did find Gold Key's Boris Karloff Tales of Mystery #25 (March 1969) and DC Comics' Wonder Woman #188 (May-June 1970) for two dollars each. They are in fair condition and I was surprised to find them for that price. I have three very worn copies of Boris Karloff Tales of Mystery #66, 73 and 76 while my oldest Wonder Woman issue is #250 from 1978. Here are the covers:

Thrift Store Find: Spider-Man Water Squirter

To be honest, I had no clue what this toy was other than Spider-Man sitting on a barrel. I had to search Google and eBay to find out that it was a water squirter. According to the auction, this toy was released in 2002 by Playfully Years. The Spider-Man water squirter that I found was missing the bottom part. The toy is 2.5 inches overall. The back has 2001 Marvel and Playfully Yours China while the bottom has three holes. Not a bad find for fifty cents.
