Superman – Earth One

It’s been a while since I’ve been this excited about a Superman comic storyline. For quite a long while, comics have portrayed Superman and his alter-ego Clark Kent in a fairly typical way. The All American hero who’s sure of his role as a superhero.

But after reading the preview of Superman – Earth One, it looks like we’ll be seeing a more conflicted and brooding Superman. The grittiness from the preview pages is making me pretty excited. This reboot of his origin story could be the best yet, bringing Superman into the current age. The best thing about it, the comic will be released as a Graphic Novel come end of October. I’m excited.

Latest Scores – 5/8/10: SDCC 2010 Marvel Universe Exclusives

  IMG_0097.JPG

Managed to pick up the Marvel Universe SDCC 2010 exclusives from various sources. The Captain America and Movie Spiderman figures have the new bodies and much better articulation. Ball jointed wrists, better joints for the neck and the ankle as well! I especially like Captain America’s removable helmet and Spiderman’s costume from the movies. Great figures!

What really took my breath away was the Galactus figure! The box and carded packaging is huge! It looks amazing! I haven’t opened him up yet, and I’m contemplating if I should, but from the looks of it he has some pretty good articulation as well.

To give a bit of perspective, you can see how small Captain America is compared to Galactus. He’s a huge figure! Nice…

So now the only figure missing from my SDCC MU Exclusives collection is Thor, I should be getting that next week! Woot! Great figures!
