DC Universe Legacies #7 Cover is Really Cool

The DC Universe Legacies book is an interesting concept.  I'm always a sucker for a good concise retelling of the history of DC Comics.  Having said that, after reading DCU Legacies #1 of the series, I came away thinking two things:

• I was less than impressed with that first issue.
• I couldn't think of any reason why I wouldn't wait to read this all together in a trade. 

Having said that DC Comics recently released the cover to Issue #7, and it is really sweet.  The Half Doomsday - Half Bane background with Superman and Batman in the foreground is brilliant in my mind. 

I may have to buy that issue for the cover alone. 

Batman Mini Funko Toys are Funkolicious

How sweet are these mini figures?  The new Mini Funko's are refined Blammoids with a touch of cool.  The upcoming line features Batman, Batgirl, Robin, the Joker and the Penguin in all Funko Force's trademark chibi glory, with each piece standing roughly 3.75" tall. You can preorder for $8.00 a piece these new Funko's at and should have them in your hands by September to October.

Like these?  As an avid action figure collector, I don't normally purchase the "non traditional" action figures but I do like their style. Tell us what you think.

ALL STAR SUPERMAN Next DC Animated Movie

SDCC is full of so many surprises that it is hard to remember all the announcements that did not garner the publicity as the premier of AVENGERS Movie cast or footage of the GREEN LANTERN movie.

One revelation that you may have missed in all the hullabaloo is that Warner Bros. Animation officially announced a DC Universe Original Movie based on ALL STAR SUPERMAN, the award-winning series by Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely.

The direct-to-DVD animated feature, set for release in spring 2011, is written by Dwayne McDuffie, who calls the series "one of the greatest stories in comic book history."
