Mattel DC Figures

Man, Silver Age Superman sure was a dick!

PIctured: a comic with no basis in recognized ethics.

Jimmy wins that hands down.

Regardless, a raised profile for Swamp Thing would go a long way for more figures under the new Mattel regime. The movie would have been optional, but a comic that sells well with a decent creative pedigree would work too. Paired with the upcoming Zatanna ongoing series, I think it’s a pretty good entry point to revitalize DC’s supernatural/horror genre. If you’ve not read it, the Zatanna mini series by Jamal Igle was excellent. Jamal returns for the new ongoing title coming in a few months.

Man, Silver Age Superman sure was a dick!

He was often just the victim of some funky variety of kryptonite back then.

Javier Rodriguez the main draw of that Zatanna series.

That was the Black Label mini series that came out before the Igle series. Didn’t read it. Heard it was good. May get the trade.

I've always liked Zatanna, though I've never read one of her solo books. The idea of reading half the dialogue backward is a drag.

I might pick up Jamal Campbell's current run. I've heard good things.

I thought it was quite good. And a good jump off point for lots of related characters. There were hints of that in the Igle mini. No spoilers but Blue Devil was kinda prominent. Hard to believe that he hasn’t had his own book since the 80’s.

And that Todd hasn’t gotten to him either.
