I know it’s not “cool” to admit, even in the comic book community, but Superman is my favorite superhero. Yea. That’s right. You read that right. Better than Batman, Cap, Wolverine (or any of the X-Men for that matter), and even Spider-Man. Although, Spidey does run a pretty close second.

I hope my “spoiler” in last week’s article, Discussion: DC Direct Wonder Woman figure, didn’t totally ruin your anticipation for this week’s article about… DC Direct’s Aquaman figure. If it did, then I suggest you go see customer service to cash in on my money back guarantee.

Discussion: DC Direct Wonder Woman
Action Figure

That’s one good looking Amazon action figure.

Manufacturer: DC Direct
Release date: November 2012
Retail Price: $24.99

I’ll tell you what, DC Direct is really hitting it out of the park with these New 52 figures. The sculpts and paints on these figures is probably some of the best I’ve seen. They’ve really done some nice work on this line.

Publisher: DC
Cover Date: 10/31

I can’t really say I’ve got my finger on the pulse of the comics community. I try and keep up with THE news and such, but… you know. Things happen. Things like… Li’l Gotham (now that’s what we in the biz call a “segue”). This one almost got under my radar. Almost. And thank the maker it didn’t. Because, this is a great li’l (get it? “Li’L”?!?) book.
