The old heat and shock cold trick does a great job giving this guy a more subtle growl.

I know you've got a real good handle on all things Marvel, but here's some ammunition for ya to hopefully help make things easier.

The western comics were, for whatever reason, some of my dad's favorites. It was hilarious, whenever he bought me comics, I'd end up with a stack of these. I never bought one for myself, I have a longbox full of them. We took a family trip to Yellowstone, the only reading material I had was Marvel westerns pilfered from a local shop.

Which is a long way to say I have major nostalgia for these, the Gunhawks and Kid Colt in particular. I'd be thrilled to buy my dad a Reno Jones. He's ecstatic about Phantom Rider (and Werewolf, the monsters being his other favorite).
 
I got all the rest of this wave while I was out of town last week, and it really is my favorite wave in a long time. Just a great assortment of new characters and new looks. I wish every wave was this great. With this, the mini-comic wave and the two packs I am surrounded by new character greatness.

I am so happy to finally have Skurge in my Legends collection.
 
I also got the rest of the wave today. Skurge is nice, but feels a little like an older Hasbro BAF... hard to explain it. Seems almost too simple in a way with the torso. Really happy to have it, and it looks great on the Thor shelf.

Dark Avenger Spider-Man is slick, and the countdown to a Doppelganger and 6 Arm Spider-Man re-do is on.
Enchantress is a nice update, and easily replaces the 2 previous releases.
I have no connection to the Phantom Rider - but they at least went to the effort to give him a bunch of extra hands. He also uses the new SHIELD 3 pack legs, which are better than just white legs with no boots. The body would actually work well for a more modern Punisher - if the War Journal body wasn't so perfect. I really just like the boots for a Punisher.
 
My WBN came looking like this:

It won't scrape off and it's fixable with a dab of paint but I'm kinda enjoying deciding if it's a teardrop tattoo, or a silver bullet wound. Any other ideas?
