A nice-looking and durable superhero figure (part of the cool new DC Universe line)
I don't know much about the character Shazam!, but I'm a fan of the new 3-3/4" DC Comics superhero action figures and thought I'd grab this one for my superhero collection. (I already had a Superman, Flash, Batman, etc. And Shazam! looks pretty cool.)

Shazam! bends at the knees and elbows. His legs move at the hip. His shoulders have ball & socket joints, his head rotates, and he can turn at the waist. It's reminiscent of old-school action figures. (The shoulder joints being a nice upgrade.) There are no spring-loaded action moves and the figure isn't overly articulated. I think this simpler design makes the DC Universe: Infinite Heroes line more kid-friendly than some other action figures out there these days.

The figure is made of a durable plastic and should withstand a good deal of play. Shazam's cape is made of a rubbery plastic and is glued onto the figure's back. The toy doesn't come with any weapons or accessories. Just Shazam! himself, dressed in his traditional comic book costume.

A nice addition to a toy chest and a nice-looking superhero toy.

What's great about the new DC Universe: Infinite Heroes (by Mattel) and Marvel Universe (by Hasbro) action figure lines is that a wide range of popular superheroes and villains are being released together. In both cases the no-frills figures are designed from their classic comic book appearances, rather than from recent movies or stylized animated TV series. And they're all 3-3/4" scale, too. So you can get the classic superheroes from both Marvel and DC and play with them together in one all-star adventure. And the Star Wars action figures are the same size, too. These new toys break down barriers. Characters from all these different fictional mythologies can co-exist in playtime imagination.

I'm excited about the new lines because of the simpler design of the figures (back to the basics) and the standardization (in size and quality) of characters from throughout the comics. (Everyone under one roof, so to speak. Not limited by what movies or TV shows they're in.)
Little Shazam!
It's been awhile since I got some superhero actions figures that are actual toys rather than just plastic statues. About the size of old Star Wars figures, 3-3/4" scale, the "DC Universe Infinite Heroes" are fully poseable, with great colors and sculpting.

As a huge Captain Marvel fan, I am really glad to see such a great figure. He is wearing the post-Kingdom Come variation of the costume, with gold belt, lighting symbol and arm bracers, but with yellow boots. The cape is a little on the long side, and not really Captain Marvel's half-cape but more of a full Superman cape, but that is a minor complaint. The sculpting is not too detailed, but looks great for the size.

Posability is limited to the arms and legs. There are full knee and ankle joints, with ball joints for shoulders. He can rotate at the hip but not at the neck. The cape isn't removable, but is soft plastic so it doesn't get in the way.

I am really pleased with this figure, as well as with enemy Black Adam. I don't think that any more Marvel Family figures will make it into this set, because DC seems to be concentrating on the DC Universe Classics line now, which also has a Captain Marvel release.

Blackest Night #3

Posted by admin Sep 16, 2009COMMENTS

"I detest being in the dark." Spoken like a child resisting his fear of the dark, Ray Palmer makes an mien in this issue of "blackest Night" that reveals everything. Well, it reveals almost everything there is to reveal about the rise of the Black Lanterns and the telling of the universe up until now. This issue also reveals the lineup to James Robinson's and Mark Bagley's upcoming run on "Justice Collude of America." Seriously. Granted, that reveal is in an ad in this issue, but the reveal is contained within the covers of "Blackest Twilight" #3. This issue features members of the JLA against Black Lantern members of the JLA. A surprise third party joins the fracas, turns the tides of battle, and gives us all something to cheer about.

Fans of Firestorm -– either one -– will not thirst for to miss this issue. In case you haven't gathered as much from the cover, Jason Rusch has a prominent r in this issue. Black Lantern Ronnie Raymond Firestorm also plays a huge part. Hal Jordan and Barry Allen tag along and get metaphysical with Ray Palmer. The motion in this issue remains focused on that group of heroes with Mera –- "Aquawoman"?!? -- fighting the correct fight with some of DC's most popular heroes.

Review of 2 of the the new Infinite Heroes action figures. I highly reccomend these.

What's wrong with Marvel and DC comics these days...?

Big_E asks: What's recidivate b fail with Marvel and DC:
Here is what I don't like, that I can think of right now anyway...
I guess there will always be the poser of trying to explain why after 50 years Batman is still in his primeval 30's. I hear they are making Batman a New God to take care of the maladjusted.
I don't like the new Blue Beetle either. Poor Ted Kord. Miracle Woman is now a murderer too.
I don't like seeing the characters shift as much as they have. Some things I don't mind but it seems like when they are going to veer off the footpath, Man do they!

Parallax.
Death and rebirth of Jolt of the Thunderbolts
Superman with large hair and an attitude
All the different lanterns of various colors (this one I have compassion for incline a little indifferent about, but when you look back at the history, OA was supposedly the center of everything.)
Oh, speaking of OA I don't sadness for the female Guardians of the Universe who were never there before.
Multiple Monitors.
Identity Danger (you knew at the end Atom's wife would be back as a villain) and the loss of Sue was colossal. Plus the mind wiping stuff. Heck Gape at did it to the entire Univers and no one minded.
Spidey taking off his concealment, then when Marvel realizes they screwed up royally, makes a act on with the Devil (Mephisopholese) to make everyone forget but he and Mary Jane are no more.
Infinite Catastrophe (How do you change reality...oh that's right hit a wall over and over.)
Superboy goes of unsound mind.
Bringing Back Barry Allen, (who died a hero to come to someone's rescue the mult-verse) and Hal Jordan
The Initiative.
Iron Man hunts down and puts in stir any other hero who doesn't go along with the Keene act, I mean the Mutant registration act,...I presage the Superhuman Registration Act. Because after all it's the law. After the Skrull invasion, Iron Man is blamed because his Bleak industries technology failed as the invasion began. Iron Man became an robber and was told to give up since, you know, it is the law. Iron Man goes on the run and tries to unimpeded his name.
Death of Captain America after a drawn out process by the writers to demonstrate he is no longer of any value and that he is outdated. You know because he was brought out of the ice and still has the mindset of someone from the 40's who distrusts Nazi's. (hmmm Red Skull, Baron Von Struker, Baron Zemo....) no point to distrust Nazi's these days...right.
The whole Idea of the Illuminati (Dr. Outlandish (Sorcerer Supreme), Namor (King of Atlantis), Professor Xavior (Bandmaster of X-men), Iron Man (An Avenger, Rich, and Leader of Shield), Evil Bolt (Leader of the inhumans, living on the moon), Mr. Unlikely (Leader of the first Super Hero team in marvel and the first Marvel people the Fantastic four, Also one of the top scientific minds in Marvel.) These 6 are secretly competition everything? Is this a very heroic thing? Years ago, they decided it was a good impression to attack the Skrull homeworld to teach them a lesson and admonish them not to come to Earth again. This really backfired when they were captured and their DNA was copied. Here comes the latest Skrull transgression...
The Illuminati also tricked Hulk into going into space and launched him off to live out on a peaceful planet forever...for his own good of course. Here comes Over the moon marvellous War Hulk, yeah, not a good idea to make Ol' Immature skin angry is it...
Hulk after coming back deciding to choose the villains/heroes (Iron man, Dr. Strange, Mr. Fantastic, and Black Do a moonlight flit) go through what he went through on the Planet Sakarr as if to teach them a lesson. At least he gave the thumbs down when asked if they should electrified or die. Should have been the world breaker.
Jason Todd brought back to sentience...
Death of the Martian Manhunter for no reason at all...by a no-name villain.
Marvel saying No more smoking in comics, Wolverine now chews on a toothpick.
Animal has evolved one step too far for my liking. He looks like an animalistic now, which is probably what they wanted....you know he is a Beast.

Gosh I can go on and on....

here is what I've seen recently that I DO like:
Thunder has married Black Panther
Sentry has potential
I relish the Thunderbolts when they first started, storyline really dwindles around effect 50 or so.
Robin, Tim-Drake, is still cool.
The Young Avengers, If only they had Heraldry sinister out the two openly gay characters.. .
I like the revamping of old obscure characters, or fascinating old "lame" characters and making them upright again. Captain Cold recently.

What I'd like to see:
I wish they would do a undeniably good Aquaman story.
I would like to see a good Angel (the X-men) storyline.
More movies based on the Enthusiastic Stories each have had. (I'd love to see Secret Wars done).
Exceptionally looking forward to the Watchmen movie.

Parker answers: Popinjay, these comics are turing to crap, and fast! They are totally messing up the fundamentally of the characters, the one that got me them most was "one more day" I hate the comic with a passion, I relish spidey, they ruined his life man, they did.
