Going through an old hard drive I found that I had a load of trading cards scanned on my machine which might be of interest.

The Sixties Batman set was as fun as you might imagine http://imgur.com/a/I9vZa




(Pretty sure Batman "forgot" most of his outfit before he went to "wrestle" that ape)

Bonus Superman card featuring him ripping a shark in half


Edit: Full set of the Superman cards in which he kills a boa constrictor, a shark, a rhinoceros, a vulture, an octopus and a killer whale.

Nice, now it's canon that Superman saved a young Jim Gordon.

An evil scientist found his torso floating in orbit and he paid to retrieve it so he could make multicoloured symbiote robot dudes that all went wrong because symbiote.

He also gave Cletus robot legs which looked really cool and Flash Venom-y for like 2 issues and then transmogrified into proper legs with no explanation in the next comic. (Presumably the symbiote regrew them but whatevs.)

e: Pretty sure this is gonna bite Superior Iron Man in the rear end down the line because he was involved with all that stuff and his new suit uses Symbiote tech IIRC.

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.



Wouldn't it have made a lot more sense for Cyborg Superman to be Tin Man instead of Scarecrow on the Supergirl/Oz cover? They could have even used the actual villain Scarecrow!

It's very good. Sinestro and Magneto's books are like the exact moment Cullen Bunn decided to get good. Though I haven't read the series since the current GL crossover started.

There is an issue or two about that, actually.

The book is basically about Sinestro finding out about Korugar survivors and making it his mission to rescue them, no matter how much they think him a monster. He retakes the Sinestro Corps to use as his soldiers in this and gets his daughter on the crew by going, "Yeah, you hate me and I get that, but your people need you. You want to leave? Be my guest."

Shouldn't she just go "I'mma get my own refugee spaceship. With blackjack doctors and hookers Green Lanterns!"?

I wonder if she ever considered calling herself "Iron Maiden". Though if she is anything like Tony, that name is going to be really ironic.
