Superman/Batman : Public Enemies

The latest preview of the upcoming Direct to DVD Superman/Batman movie. Set to be released at the end of this month. The list of characters looks explosive especially with Power Girl in the mix(what?).

So far this is the third animated movie by DC this year. The first two were:
Being a fan of WW, one would expect that I highly recommend the WW movie. Well, I think fans should watch both. Both movies gives viewers a new look at both their origins in the Superhero world. If you're watching GL, keep an eye out for Arisia, one of the GL Corps. Why? 'Cos she's cute - nuff said.

W.A.R. # 36 : DC Direct, Wonder Woman & Green Lantern

From the pages of the JLA series comes series 3 action figures which consist of Green Lantern(Hal Jordan), the ever graceful Wonder Woman, The Flash & Geo-Force. I picked out only two because the Flash looked kinda weird for me and Geo-Force is not really in my list of Must-Have superheroes.

Detail/Sculpt

Green Lantern
Hal Jordan is every Green Lantern fan's must-have figure. Mine has always been John Stewart. But this ain't John is it now? I've gone through every inch of this figure trying to find an uneven paint app and I couldn't find one. My only complaint about this figure is the ring. Its just a circle of green paint. C'mon guys...you can do better. This figure comes with his power battery and the JLA base stand.


Wonder Woman

This is the 2nd best sculpt for a Wonder Woman figure that I've seen so far. The best is still from the Wonder Woman series 1. At first I wasn't too sure about the sculpt showing off some of her muscles on her arms and thighs...but the look works. Its not too muscular and looks more of a woman who seems to exercise regularly. And by regularly I mean fighting other gorgeous woman in short dresses *drool*. The folds on her top is a nice touch(I'm referring to her clothes and nothing else...I swear!! LoL). The pain app is like Hal's, almost flawless. This figure comes with her lasso(sigh...is her invisible jet too much to ask for?) and the JLA base stand.

Whether you are a fan of Green Lantern or Wonder Woman I really recommend these two figures. The sculpt just makes up for the lack of articulation. Till next time. Cheers.
