I’ve never been drawn to one particular character in my life. Not Spider-Man when I read Marvel many years ago. Not Batman or Superman in these many years since I left Marvel behind. When I was a Marvel fan, I followed the Avengers and related titles mostly, as that was a kind of umbrella...

For the record, I’m not expecting a Titans or JSA sub line, regardless of how cool it would be. But the occasional wave would be awesome nonetheless. Like waves 8, 14, and 19 of DCUC, loaded with JSA goodness. But Superman and the Justice League are teed up for sub lines. Could Lana Lang Irons...

My hope is that it doesn’t go that high. I somehow can’t picture Zaslav sitting in his office looking at action figures unless it’s for a 100M + budget movie. At some level, all these people in charge and involved, know how successful Marvel Legends have been maintaining about a 60/40 ratio of...

Yeah. What are the Lanterns? Cops? Soldiers? Militia? Vigilantes? 1) Who gave the Guardians the authority to police the universe? 2) Why are they so bad at it? Every decision blows up in their little blue faces. 3) If Oa is the source of all the emotional energy, why don’t all the various...

Word on the street is Lanterns will launch an overarching storyline through the various Gunn media projects coming up. Big picture type stuff. In terms of comics, a third Green Lantern series is coming out in May. Obviously trying to rebuild the brand. Both in comics and media. I think it’s...

I was thinking of a comic accurate Judomaster, but point taken. 👍 I’d actually forgotten about him in Peacemaker.

So what are we thinking about other sub-lines beyond Batman? Superman? Justice League? JSA? GLC? Seems like a lot of peripheral characters in the DCU don’t have much of a chance otherwise. If Alan Scott can’t be a wave anchor anymore, then there’s pretty much no chance of Mr. America, Tomcat, or...

I have 347 Mcfigs including BaFs and articulated pack ins. More than the total of DCUC figures I owned. Don’t have it broken down by year though. All preorders have been delivered and I’m not currently looking for any past figures. I’ll stay the course until the end. After the last Mcfigs get...

I would think that anything that goes up for sale next month is probably already “on the water” and headed this way.

EE Drop Zone added another preorder date 3/11/26 Item unknown. 3/12/26 Item unknown. He’s also been putting up a lot of sports stuff lately. Mostly Hockey.

Whatever this is went up for preorder today.

Jayger says May for more live action and Supergirl stuff.

Jayger 101 on YouTube says he thinks a lot more stuff is about to go up for preorder in March. Make of it what you will. It tracks if Todd does DC preorders every other month until October, that will close us out by December.

Never read any of the 2099 stuff. But I did read OMAC back in the day. Seven corporations controlled the world. But were increasingly hostile towards one another.

Sounds like Paramount will be keeping Gunn and Safran. That seems solid enough. A rumor is also going around that the Snyderverse could be reinstated and run Parallel to the DCU. It may take six to twelve months to close the deal with regulatory approval. Bringing us back to a time when there...

Sign me up.

Well that’s given me an entirely new perspective. 👍

I hope so. I really enjoyed the original Gotham by Gaslight and the follow up series were seriously fantastic. It’s a really interesting setup for some continuing stories.

Maybe in a Superman sub-line. I just don’t see “Superman by Gaslight” as a wave anchor. I love all this Elseworldy stuff so I’d be happy if he got made at all.

So this version of Superman isn’t an outlier? OK.

I’d still like to see Todd do this. Takeover the DCD model and modernize it. Do niche figures and story specific figures. Maybe focus on Elseworlds or Multiverse characters. Leaving the world building to Mattel. Probably not going to happen. At least not soon. Mattel is going to want to get...

I get that. MLs has a 25 year head start. And yeah, I get that market conditions have changed, but in 2008 when DCUC wave 1 hit, Orion, Demon, and Metamorpho all came in that wave along with Red Tornado. I’m not asking for that. But an outlier in the first couple of waves is nearly essential to...

I imagine that you’re right, at least in the short term. I very much hope you’re wrong in the long term. I say this because the only reason why Mattel should have taken the license back in the first place is to create a line that will parallel Marvel Legends. Long term anyway. Mattel should be...

OG Starfire, Claw, Stalker Space Ranger, Dolphin, Beowulf, Warlord, Kamandi, OMAC, Hercules Unbound, Captain Comet, Phantom Stranger, Tommy Tomorrow (heh), Freedom Fighters, Arak, Arion, Richard Dragon, and I could go on.

I’d be broke and love every single second of it.
