BZZZ!

Bee-Boy, Bee-Boy-- what does that remind me of...? OH, yes!

We've shown you the candidates in our Custom Heroclix poll as they are being completed, including

So it's time for...

THE RED BEE!
And they said poofy diaphanous pink sleeves could never be done on a Heroclix figure --HA!! You go, Dale!

I've said it before, but I'll say it again: if you don't, on some level, love the Red Bee, then you don't really love DC. Which is ironic, since he wasn't originally a DC character...

  1. It's a good thing then that I love the Red Bee (how could I *not*?). Wouldn't want to have my credentials taken away...

  2. "Which is ironic, since he wasn't originally a DC character..."

    I see no irony in loving DC characters that were not DC characters. In fact, loving those characters and pulling them, kicking and screaming into the DC Universe, is the history of the DC Universe.

    It starts with the Justice Society (the first intercompany cross over), works it's way through Plastic Man, Captain Marvel and Blue Beetle, and continues on today with Mr. Majestik and the Authority!

    A multi-verse, where all these characters are divided by the companies they came from and the eras of their creation, just doesn't appeal to me, because I want these people to interact with the least amount of explaination as possible.

    That said, to quote Blockade Boy:

    "I Like Bee Belts and I cannot Lie
    you other brothers can deny"

    Wow, I rap white, even in my posts!

  3. I don't love the Red Bee.

    Just try and take my membership card away.

  4. I love the Red Bee!

    And here's my version of steven's positioning:

    A multi-verse, where all these characters are divided by the companies they came from and the eras of their creation, appeals to me, because it allows these people to interact with a minumum amount of explanation.

  8. Does this mean we can expect "goonclix" for each of his trained bees? Or at least one of his Main Bee, Michael? They'd be, like, the teeniest Heroclix ever, and they could only be seen with the aid of a scanning electron microscope.

  9. Actually, I've made REV Bee pogs.

    Really.

    Michael is the LE.
