A present from my neice

So, yesterday, We got called up (at the last minute), and invited to a cookout at my brother-in-law’s and while we were there, my lovely niece, Gwen, presented me with a early learning Spider-Man book from DK Publishers.

The book, Spider-Man: Worst Enemies, was a bit worse for wear, and I believe that she purchased it at a used book fair at her school, but she told me that when she saw it, she knew that I liked Spider-Man, and that she bought it fully intending to give it to me.

Cute kid, eh?

I told her that she was my favoritest niece.

Subway goes Green (Lantern)

This just in, folks, the fast food tie-in for the up-coming DC Comics film featuring Green Lantern will be with Subway.



I just checked today, and the promotion hasn’t yet started in my area, but I imagine that it soon will.

Cool, eh?

Captain America

With the Captain America movie slated as the next film for Marvel, the comicbook company has just released the Captain America Index (to which I was a contributor). I just got my copy yesterday, and yep, it is very cool.

More Spidey stuff

So, my older brother, Ron, is moving, and his son, Tony-o (who is almost as big a Spidey fan as am I), is parsing through his collection of crap, ah, collectibles, and is giving me first dibs on stuff he doesn’t want. Well, here is a load of very cool stuff that he laid on my last weekend.



This is a very cool Spidey finger-puppet

I think these Spidey throwers were a Fast Food Toy

Oh, that can in the background is a Thor Dr. Pepper can

Pretty cool, eh?

Jane’s Journal

Here is the eighth and final toy that Burger King is packing with it’s Kid’s Meals as a tie-in to the Marvel Comics Thor film.


It is a journal similar to the one that Jane carried in the film. 


There is also a set of stickers that can be used to decorate the outside of the the journal. 

Not all comicbooks are about superheroes:
