Despite how scrambled this year's been, there have actually been a few strong contenders. Gonna have to split my ticket though, Retro Spidey and Peter Parker all the way. Packaging was awesome, and both figures fulfilled a solid need (updated Spidey-Tooling and a civilian Parker). Sure, Peter's glasses sucked, but that was an easy fix requiring no real customizing experience.

JJJ arrived yesterday. I love this packaging so much I almost hate to open it. Then again, I've saved my Spider-Man Movie Jonah's desk and chair all these years just for THIS occasion. I'm crackin' this bad-boy open. -
The Mystery Of The Third Summers Brother Revealed

You just described the last 30 years of Marvel Comics. -
Anticipation is a funny thing. Just the right amount, and a crap movie will be touted as genius, to much and a genius movie will be called crap. In either case, it really doesn't matter. We're dealing with much deeper issues than when we can see the next big superhero movie.

Pulse sent the shipping notice for JJJ this morning. -
Be that as it may, I'm considering army building him anyway and making him my generic AIM guy.

Pulse put through the charge for J. Jonah Jameson. I assume its being released nearly a month and a half early? -

If there were ever any question as to the future of the Netflix shows, I found the answer this afternoon. While dropping into Ollie's, I happened upon an entire case of Luke Cage and Claire Temple 2-pks. How the mighty have fallen. -
I don't know if we exactly NEED it, other than NEEDING any character that's not a Spider or Deadpool variant, but I'd sure love them to make one.

Wow. That almost makes the Spider-Man thing make sense.

I'm pretty sure you're mixing Black Panther up with the version of Golden Age hero, Black Marvel that was featured in the "Six Forgotten Warriors" story-arc from Spider-Man the Animated Series. In the comics, Black Marvel was Dan Lyons, a white guy, but on the show, for reasons, the characters identity was changed so that he was original character Omar Mosby, a black guy and Dan Lyons driver. Part of the back story was Mosby pretended to be Lyons while in costume. Yes, his secret identity had a secret identity. The more you thought about it, the less sense it made, but it was still a pretty cool story-line.

The Avengers Gear Up In All-New Armor In Avengers Mech Strike

While both story-lines are ridiculous and sound like something Kenner would've come up with in the 90s to sell toys, in a way, it would've made more sense if they flipped the two. Have the X-Men don custom armor to fight some cosmic threat, and have the Avengers whip out their swords for whatever stupid reason the X-Men did. -
Yes, Dude, but you do understand it's still a COMIC cover . . . right?
-
Remember when a comic book cover was supposed to sell the story within? Now they're advertisements for figures that don't exist. Comics are weird.
