These are very well done. If anyone is wondering why W2 looks worlds better than Wave 1, I have a story: I was told by an incredibly reliable source close to Todd McFarlane (doubt me if you will but, I assure you I am telling the truth) that Todd actually tried to get out of the license. He tried to "give it back" during the revision process of W1. Apparently DC requested incredibly unreasonable revisions to their chosen line-up of characters. DC would request design revisions, be unhappy with the result, then request additional revisions to their revisions. This went on for months. The approved designs look nothing like McFarlane Toys' original concepts. There were a lot of hands thrown up in umbrage and many butts were hurt. The DC Multiverse project manager was reassigned after W1 and "newer blood" was brought in for W2.

It's a crazy story but, If one considers it...makes total sense. It lines up with the clusterfuckery that we've come to expect from DC Multiverse figures and explains why W1 as a whole is...well...atrocious.

That explains a lot actually. I feel like I'm one of the few people that hates wave 1, from Superman's horrible chest joint to Nightwing's little baby-arms. This wave 2 looks so much better!
