I just looked up stills from the 89 film. I think you are right. They are 30s not 50. Full barrel coolers show that clearly. Never realized that.

Funny enough I found a ton of Rayner figs. Freaking Wal-Mart.

Seriously? I'm gonna have to fight for a Rebirth Supergirl because she's Gold Label?

Dammit, Todd. Why the fuck is half the line exclusives?

Sheesh, hopefully we will start to create new cliches so we can retire the antiquated ones like, “nothing new under sun…yadda, yadda.”

You know what’s new under the sun? Gene therapy – that’s new under the sun. Quantum computing - when it actually happens, we aren’t there yet despite what’s been pitched to angel investors on Wall Street, but it will be new under the sun once it happens. Cold fusion - considering recent breakthroughs in nuclear fusion, we seem remarkably close, which would be very new under the sun. While I’m a fan of nostalgia, my thinking remains flexible. Rigidity of thought leads to intellectual dead ends and is antithetical to evolution.

Except when it comes to manties, of course, as they are the ultimate in superhero fashion accoutrements.

He means the target gold label kyle where he was dressed in his classic black outfit when he first became gl ( and consequently his current outfit again ).
