The first is Aardman: Superman Action Figure designed by Rich Webber and sculpted by Phil Ramirez. Created by Aardman, the British brains behind “WALLACE AND GROMIT,” is their own unique take on the Man of Steel. He is based on the popular interstitial shorts shown during DC Nation on Cartoon Network. Aardman: Superman is approximately 6.5” tall and is priced at $24.95.

DC Collectibles’ con exclusives will be available for purchase at the Graphitti Designs booth so make sure to stop by!

As strange as this might sound the set i’m most interested in is the Super Best Friends set as I think they are kind of cute and stylistic. I could care less about the 3.75″ Green Lantern figure because I’m not a Green Lantern fan and if the Injustice figures are any indication as to quality of these figures well then they are not worth the plastic they are cast in. Hugo Strange is pretty awesome looking but I dont think I need a figure of the character and I think i’m over Aardman figures and I know there will be a non con version of this if I really want it

Featuring Simon Kinberg of X-Men: First Class, Dave Filoni of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, and Greg Weisman of Young Justice, The Spectacular Spider-Man, and Gargoyles; Rebels has some promise. Set between Episode III and Episode IV, Rebels will explore the unexplored period between the two installments…and that’s all we know.

Anyone headed to Celebration Europe will get a look at the series which premieres in Fall of 2014.

“One of the most anticipated blockbusters this summer, Man of Steel will begin to hit theaters worldwide next month! Audience will get to take a new look at the origin and rise of an iconic superhero. We know that fans have been eagerly waiting, and we are very excited and happy to inform you today that the collectible figures of Man of Steel will be coming soon!”

The only issue I have with these is, while certainly more interested than I was lets say a few months back, I’m still very meh on this whole movie. I’m sure they will be lovely like most figures from Hot Toys are but I dont think I am jumping on the buy them bandwagon. Other than that I find Jor El an interesting choice. I think i’d have rather seen Zod.

Also According to Amazon’s pre-order incentives for the upcomming game if you preorder thru Amazon you will get DLC of Deathtroke as a playable character. It is yet to be revealed in what capacity this playability is, whether within the story mode of the game or on some challenge maps as with some of the DLC playable characters in Arkham City. Check out the banner below from Amazon and be sure to click the link to preorder the game as well!

I know I’ve praised Arrow on the show many times and I’ve been all in really since the 2nd episode of the show ( I was still a bit hesitant after the first), but the season finale this week really cemented the greatness of this show in stone for me. It was a great culmination to the season long build up final confrontation between Malcolm and Ollie. Unlike some other shows that tease an epic battle then fail to deliver (I’m snarling at you Walking Dead) this finale went out with a bang…well more like an earth shattering explosion but you get the idea.

It was really nice to see Ollie and Diggle confront The Dark Archer together and defeat him more or less as a team. And while everyone else is talking about the death of Tommy ( more on that in a minute) the stand out for me this episode was the turnaround of Detective Lance. He finally, thanks to Felicity, fully understands the importance of The Hood. I can easily see, and would be ok with, him becoming sort of Olliver’s Jim Gordon moving forward. The development of his character this entire season has been really good and in my opinion it ended in the right spot.

Now onto Tommy, sorry folks but while I did not see his death coming at all it was absolutely necessary. Not only because his death has so much impact on almost everyone else on the show but because he was a loose end IMO. My one criticism of this show was that in the span of the first season far too many people knew The Hood’s true identity and I suspect season 2 will lead to a few more people knowing who he is. It also gives Oliver a good reason to continue to fight the good fight and not simply retire after The Undertaking. Bravo to the show’s writers for having the balls to do it.

Moving forward into season 2 I am really looking forward to the further development of Roy Harper and really hope he becomes Red Arrow in the second season. I may be in the minority on this one but I hope they don’t rush Black Canary in season 2. I’d be ok if that transition didn’t happen until late season 2 or even season 3 if the show lives that long. The other big thing for me in season 2 is Slade Wilson coming to the current continuity. I’m hoping his story in Starling City isn’t hokey though. I don’t want him to be straight up hero or villain. I’m ok with him being somewhere in between and I hope that’s the role he takes. I also really hope they give The Hood some sort of mask in season 2. I’m not feeling the green painted line or sometimes absolute nothing on his face. They need to adress this IMO and the costume would be fine.

Let me know your thoughts on the first season and what you think we can expect in Season2.
