Toy Highlight: Vampirella 1:6 Scale Executive Replicas Figure

The rivers of Drakulon used to flow with blood, keeping the Vampiri a thriving race. Their world dying, Earthlings chanced to crash upon their planet, their veins rich with life-giving blood. Vampirella, the princess of Drakulon, piloted the crashed spaceship back to Earth, where she spends her life defending Earthlings from evil vampires, such as Dracula, who had migrated to Earth years before.
The epic story, starting in 1969 has gained in popularity ever since. Now, nearly 50 years later, Vampirella is more popular than she has ever been. So popular that Dynamite Entertainment with Executive Replicas and Phicen Ltd. bring us this Vampirella Asian Version 1:6 Scale Action Figure. Measuring in at 12-inches tall, with all the sexy detail of Vampirella herself, this figure garnishes attention from longtime fans and new followers.
This officially licensed Vampirella action figure is every bit as enchanting as it needs to be to make her fans happy. Vampirella comes to life in her Phicen seamless body with stainless steel armature, in her one-piece bikini costume. She has three pairs of interchangeable hands, her knee-high boots, a removable cape, and more accessories.

JUGHEAD THE HUNGER #1

Brand new series!  Jughead Jones is a werewolf, and Reggie Mantle has fallen victim to Jughead's monstrous ways. Now Betty Cooper: Werewolf Hunter along with Archie Andrews are hot on the trail of Jughead. 

Picking up several blogs again all at once is a little hard to manage time with, so as you can see we've been falling behind a little here and there. To fix that, this week's goal for this one is to do comic highlights until we get a posting schedule and more content lined up.
For this first one, we're going with something coming out tomorrow that seems pretty fitting for what time of year it is. We don't know about anyone else, but here at Lobo we're excited to see what Jughead gets up to as a werewolf.

Dark Nights Batman The Murder Machine #1

I wonder if with each of these dark Batmen they're trying to make the reason they become evil even more heartbreaking. It was really hard to watch Alfred being murdered so brutally. In Dark Nights the Murder Machine we see the events that lead the Bruce Wayne of a Dark Multiverse world become an evil robot intent on murdering everyone he deems a threat. The friendship between Cyborg and Bruce in this world seems really strong as Cyborg does everything in his power to help Bruce in his time of total despair. These dark stories are full of action and are engaging and fun to read. I get a sense of real power from each of the dark batmen. Watching regular earth Cyborg attempt to hold his own against the Murder Machine feels like a desperate fight that is unlikely to be won. The snapshots we get of the dark world as it falls into chaos gives me the saddened feeling I get reading something like Injustice, where no matter what the good try to do, evil prevails. I'm loving these books so far and am really looking forward to the explanation of the events leading up to batman becoming doomsday.

Green Arrow Rebirth #30 Hard Traveling Hero Part 5

What's better than 2 bros doing bro stuff? After years of separation we finally have the reuniting of DC's most green pals. In his ongoing quest to stop the ninth circle who have destroyed Seattle and rebranded it Star City, Green Arrow has run into the biggest leaguers, and now in this issue Ollie & Hal are together again. To be honest the beef between the two was sorta overhyped, and I'm not totally sure what has happened between them in this continuity, this whole time they've kept talking about how much they hate eachother but once they meet it's sorted in like 4 sentences. But this comic is everything it needs to be. It's absolutely fun, it's classic Hal and Oliver going on a ridiculous adventure wise cracking to eachother the whole time. This time they take off to space to take down the ninth circle's evil satellite on the dark side of the moon. Totally ridiculous and fun. Also endless love for Schmidt's art. Next up in issue 31 we get all the leaguers Ollie's teamed up with so far in one issue together!
