Sorry if this is off-topic but I just wanna thank everyone here. I started this thread when Super Heroes first became a theme around 2012 I believe, and haven't been active in the community for 5+ years. So it's surreal to see that this thread is still alive and kicking!

Thanks for the response. I'll be sure to check out the convention :)

Anyone still around from the old EB days - just logged in for the first time in 5 years lol. Seems the community is dead or maybe its migrated?

Funtimes at a Funhouse! by sok117, on Flickr This is what I did to mine, but I've since added a giant brick-built joker head to the top.

I've been gone for a while, but I need some lego and I need it soon! I'm trying to decide between the Superman Battle for Smallville or the Rancor Pit (I have the palace). I am a big fan of both superheroes and star wars. Right now, I feel like the palace isn't complete without the rancor pit, plus I could get the jor-el minifigure, but the build and minifigures just don't seem super-satisfying. Then I would probably add on battle of metropolis to get zod and supes. I don't see any point in getting zod armour if he can't have hair on... OR I get the battle of smallville, which looks like a fun build with lots of cool characters, but I won't get jor-el, being as there aren't many small sets out right now that interest me that could put me over the limit. What do you guys recommend?

WHOA!~ I don't see a single thing I dislike about these sets! Each set has so many figures in it that it's unbelievable! So many cool colours and designs, egad I'm so excited for the return of the wild west I just can't contain myself, thanks for the pictures! I'm gonna spend the next couple hours drooling over the. The one thing I dislike, and I hope it's a typo, is that the stage coach is 50 dollars! thats way to expensive for that size a set, oh well, everything else looks like a good value!

Justice League #0 continues events in the Shazam back up story that started in issue #7 or something, so I wouldn't get it because it doesn't hold up as a stand alone issue because it lacks a beginning or an ending. If you want to jump into Justice League though, #15 is dropping in December, and it will begin a crossover event with Aquaman (who is a real badass now) called Throne of Atlantis, which I believe will be preluded in next weeks Aquaman, which should be excellent! Or you could start at Justice League #13 and #14 which began and ended with the secret of the cheetah story arc which was pretty good for Wonder Woman and Superman fans.

See, I don't understand how they can charge 3.99 for only around 27 odd pages. For DC, 3.99 gets you 40 pages adn 2.99 gets you 32 pages. It just seems like more of a fair deal. Oh well, they looked interesting, but I can't justify collecting a book for one character I'm mildly interested in. DC got it right, 3.99 for popular characters in a 40 page book, Batman, Justice League etc. then less popular characters in a 2.99 book, flash, swampthing. It just makes everything more reasonable, but if I'm paying 3.99 for Captain America or Deadpool, it just seem like I'm not getting as much bang for my buck. Nevertheless I think I will be collecting the Avengers when it comes out, cause 3.99 for all those characters seems like its more then worth it!

Did anyone pick up the Indestructible Hulk of the new Captain America from Marvel Now? And if so, are they any good, and how many pages are they? Cause i don't know if they can justify a $3.99 price tag for just one character. This week I picked up Justice League 14 and Catwoman 14, both pretty good issues, and I can't wait to see Justice Leagues story expand into Aquamans' atlantis in the upcoming crossover, because new 52 Aquaman is in my top three right now!

Drop by on the sunday any time between 11 and 6 and we can chat! And I'll ask Si-Mocs to deeplink the picture, so um, Si-Mocs, can you deeplink the picture?

Hey Guys! So I officially have a job at the Lego Store in Sherway Gardens! YIPPEE! If you are dropping by the store at all in the coming weeks, ask for Stefan and you should be greeted by a gent who bears a striking resemblance to this man http://www.flickr.com/photos/si-mocs/6278665686/in/photosof-61655501@N07/ Photo courtest of EB registered User Si-Mocs! I'm very excited to meet some if not all of you in person and get to work for a brand name that is very near and dear to my heart! I'll see you guys around and brick on!

"But Batman! I said I wanted the Mark Ruffalo version, not the Lou Ferrigno one!"

Super dissapointed in CN taking out Young Justice for the time being, it was just getting good, or that is to say, more good then it already was. There are so many moments of OMG's and squeals of excitment that it is super hard to contain myself for the most part. Just the whole dynamic of the show is really making me happy to be a DC fan. This weeks episode was great, and leaves a lot of cliff-hangers, like what the heck is going on with Blue-Beetle! What is the history of the scarab, and what does it mean for the secret invasion. Also, GGG is super cool with Aliens all of a sudden, can you say pod-person? And what just happened to AquaLad? I imagine Megan will be super emotional, well more so then usual.

I'm pleased to see how many commited Marvel readers there are out there! It makes my job of converting you guys into DC fanboys much more difficult I picked up Batman #13 last wednesday and it was pure awesomesauce! It had me really shaken at certain points. And the ending was unbelievable! I'm very excited/terrified to uncover what the Joker is planning, and how it will change Batman forever! This issue really played out like a horror movie, 10/10 For those of you who don't know, Batman #13 marks the beginning of a new story arc entitled "Death of the Family" not only is it an excellent read, but it provides a perfect "jumping on" point for those who wish to pick up the series. And it doesn't dissapoint at all. Next time your in your local shop, pick it up and give it a try. And be prepared for comicbook history in the making. This week I'm going to pick up Justice League #13, Needless to say I'm excited for the fallout of the superman/wonderwoman kiss, and also more Shazam backstory!
