You're so right about Starlin's tendency to cannibalize his own characters/concepts/stories. Despite my love for Dreadstar, and many of Starlin's other works, I like Giffen a little bit more...mostly for his work on LoSH. However, speaking of Giffen, inasmuch as it regards his art (which I also liked), I didn't respond to your mention of Omega Men...another book I liked as a kid (birthplace of Lobo baby!!) and another parallel between us.
Enjoy Negation, man. I know it's a pain in the arse to track down, but it's so worth it. Obregon is the man!!! You'll see...lol Omega Men started great, but it was shocking how quickly the team got savaged straight away, similar to Alpha Flight. Hardcore stuff as a kid. And I guess they don't call Jim "death" Starlin for nothing. He and Giffen sure enjoy killing their characters. Oh Lobo, so cool when he and Bedlam made their way through Kalista's ship. Epic. And yep. Love Kaine and the gang already. |

I would buy the Black Order, even if it is movie style. That would make for a great display!

With the exception of Proxima, most of the movie Black Order look almost identical to their comic counterparts, so this is one of those cases where you could probably fudge it and have it fit either a movie or comic display.

**Never mind. I looked it up. You're right, she's pretty different. I suppose it could work if you needed it to fit on a comic shelf. Thanks for pointing that out, I really didn't realize how different those designs were. Last edited by Spyne98; 09-19-2017 at 07:45 AM.. |

Yeah, pretty ridiculous. I'm going to pass on even trying to get it online at this point as when I tried from the walmart site yesterday it was $30 with shipping and then I had to create an account - whatever happened to just checking out as a guest?

Normally I'd say you'd have a point..but since in this case Black Panther was a Walmart exclusive that shouldn't matter. Just walmart weirdness and corporate greed...of which yes, the base of your comment still stands.

As i look at that Deadpool on the Hasbro site...i go...I don't REALLY need that. I already have the previous X-force (gray) Deadpool. But wondering why i feel compelled to purchase it anyway...smh.

Is it because it's arguably a better-made toy?
(I say without having ever touched the older Deadpool, and only assume due to the time between the two releases and improvements Hasbro has made since then)

Man does this make me glad I got Black Panther months ago when it first showed up on the Wal-Mart website. Lord knows I'm never going to see it in stores. Hope the people that want it are able to get it for a reasonable price.
And speaking of which, Human Torch should be coming out this week according to my Walgreens computer. Exactly a day after my birthday on Thursday |

I hope so! The guy who runs our local toy shop's been on vacation for a couple of weeks, and won't have his shop open again until next week, so we've been kinda jonesing for our plastic fix (wife had plans to pick up most of the Vulture wave from him). Between BP and Torch, it would be a nice way to sate the plastic hunger.

Got the Homecoming/MCU Vulture today, really cool figure and I cant wait to complete the BAV Wings. I noticed his head is easily removable compared to some other ML's so was an unmasked Michael Keaton/Adrian Toomes head ever planned for the figure?
