The Old Gods are the ones before the New Gods, they waged a war which destroyed them, but in doing so they created the Gods of Earth, Apokolips, and New Genesis... I think! And I believe Gog was an Old God...

No problem. Finding New Gods fans nowadays is a rare thing.

FancyPants · 06-25-2012, 08:13 PM

I made no claims. It's all hearsay

Sounds... Creepy.

Bubba304 · 06-25-2012, 08:21 PM

the new gods are at the top of my DC list....along with Firestorm, Dr. Fate, Adam Strange, Hawkman, Green Lantern (GL Corps), the Legion of Super Heroes, Red Tornado, Swampthing, Animalman, Deadman & The JSA. as far as super heroes go...I'll save the fav. villians for another post another time.

I can't quote the post. Either DFD or abe asked which alfred I want. It's obvious. Micheal Cain. I love him, he's a great english actor. One of my favorite quotes of his from an interview was something along the lines of "People assume that because I play these wise knowledgeable men in films, that I am as well"

Always liked that

FancyPants · 06-25-2012, 08:24 PM

DCUC or DCD dr fate?

I've never cared about articulation over detail. Detail wins. As much as I like the DCUC dr fate, I'm leaning on the DCD one. I also have a bias towards darker shades of blue. I'm a strange man

It was me, and good choice! If you can't find one I can keep an eye out for you. I'm kind of stretching myself thin right now though, and am in the process of hooking up a couple people so it might have to wait a bit.

I am looking at the HUSH Alfred. But the Cain Alfred is also on my radar.

Before I got mine I Looked at both DCD/DCUC. I chose the DCUC with all yellow no Gold and yellow as I think that looks just sloppy.

Barefootabe · 06-25-2012, 08:37 PM

i like that new frontier DR fate..it will probably be the one i go with when i find one at a good price, also i really want the blackhawk figure in that series

DogFashionDisco · 06-25-2012, 08:51 PM

I'd be happy to help anyone out with finding some of the Movie Masters, but I can't promise anything. Plus, it is kind of expensive on my end to search right now, but I can appreciate that you guys want to find them before the Dark Knight flick hits and they're nowhere to be found. I've found that a certain book sotre has been quite reliable for finding what I've wanted, but the figures end up being about $30 each to purchase, package, and ship.
Side note:
So I started reading Detective Comics - Faces of Death vol. 1 recently but haven't gotten around to finishing it. Has anyone else gotten into this series? I get really frustrated with all the studying and essays I write (yes, I even have to do this stuff during the Summer, its horrible) so I'm trying to catch up on my comics. Also, any quick recommendations?

FancyPants · 06-25-2012, 08:52 PM

Is young justice canceled? It onl goes up to episode 7 on imdb

As a guy desperately trying to complete the founding members of the JSA, that Doctor Fate is the one to have.

Barefootabe · 06-25-2012, 09:00 PM

i really love Dr fates design in young justice, too bad they never made a figure before the toy line got canned, hawkman and hawkwoman also looked badass in the show

i did the same thing lol but im not sure when vol 2 of batman will be out so i may just pick up issues 8-11 and not worry about buying the trade later. its such a great story i dont want to wait to read how it wraps up. the cross overs in the other bat-family books are great too .

Roxxstar · 06-25-2012, 09:21 PM

Hey DFD, what are you studying? I have the same issue trying to keep up with books and comics while in school. And of course did the crazy thing of taking 12 units over the summer LOL
