  1. I've watched the show long enough that I cannot stay quiet any longer. Laurel as Black Canary looks like a transvestite. That blond wig they have her wearing is ungodly hideous. I don't know what the costume people were thinking or how they haven't noticed it yet. Laurel without the wig doesn't look half bad, bud with that stupid wig, ugh. I can't make an apt comparison other than saying that the current Canary looks like a cracked out cross dresser.

     

    Anyone else notice? Again, just Laurel as Black Canary with that awful wig.

  2. I'd be game if I can get the Batman at cover price or a nice variant at a decent price, but jeez, this death stuff is getting old.....then again, they do need to do something drastic at times to shake things up.

     

    Also I personally think, that the death of Peter Parker was done well, I really enjoyed Superior Spider-man. Maybe this will lead to Buckwild Batman :shrug:

  3. Well, this is getting exciting. My wife got the Poison Ivy Bombshell around Thanksgiving, she got me a Bowen Ms. Marvel for X-mas. Then we were at a LCS on New Years, so 25% off led to my wife acquiring the Zatanna Bombshell and now we placed a down payment on the Harley Quinn Bombshell!!!

     

    Just waiting on DC to make the Catwoman Bombshell statue... :taptaptap:

  4. Still working on the overall look for my office. I have way more stuff than room at the moment. But this will help.

    Big one will have to live on top of my desk for the moment. Too big for the case.

    Is that shelf from ikea? I think we're looking at the same ones for our collection? Would a graded comic fit?

  5. I love this show but if there's one thing that I cannot stand, it's how Thea's character is written. Willa Holland is a fine lady and her hair cut works but the writers did her a great injustice in my opinion. Thea has the worst motives, no motives or is just plain stupid beyond belief.

     

    She throws a tantrum that Ollie and her mother "lied" to her. She was still a "good" person meaning she had a clear moral compass, so then she absconds with Malcolm who she knows is a liar and a pretty bad dude. WTF? Thea is written as a spoiled brat and it's sad because the writers really screwed up that character for me.

  6. I'm curious about the Will Smith choice. Heard he turned down Django unchained because Django didnt get enough attention....while Deadshot is cool he wont get the lions share of screen time......thought maybe they explore the Deadshot/Harley Quinn romance from the comics????

  7. Just started our Statue collection. Wife got the first one, pretty epic to start the collection!

    And this addition is coming soon, Down payment already payed. We also have the shelf picked out we just need to pick that up as well. Best part is I have the graded comics that will be displayed with each of these!

  8. I'm usually a "wait and see" how it turns out before I pass judgement but every time I hear anything about this movie it makes me want to :sick:

     

    And what does this even mean...

     

    In regards to how Victor Domashev fits into the overall picture, Kebbell explained, “Yeah, it was cool man. Josh, the whole deal, the lo-fi way he did it, the ultra-real. It was just nice to do that. It was nice to be feeling like we had to come to terms with what was given by this incident.”

     

    Yes, because the FF are "lo-fi" and "ultra real" - What made the Fantastic Four work, to me as a casual fan of the FF, was/is in enjoying the unreal/fantastic elements...I'm just waiting for one of them to say it is "dark and gritty"... doh!

     

     

    Yes because it's the Fantastically Realistic Four, hence they're low-fi and ultra real

  9. Ok, can someone help me out? Several posters and I guess even scenes show that when Flash runs, he does a quick zig-zap pattern which gives us his trademark "lightning bolt" logo. Why? I understand the logo and all, but thinking logically, I can't understand what would compel the Flash to run like that. Does anyone have a reasonable answer or am I simply overanalyzing and there really is no reason, other than to display the logo?

  10. Anyone know where one could acquire a Cable w/ Baby Hope Statue? I believe Sideshow Collectibles has or had one, but for the life of me I cannot find one anywhere. The closest I came is small action figure. I will be posting in the WTB forum as well, but I figure this thread being comprised of avid statue collectors, I might be able to get pointed in the right direction. Thanks everyone.
