She was lookin' pretty hot in that second pit, but when I saw your heroclix, and when I went back up and looked at the SuperBoy cover, I was pretty repulsed. All I could think of was that entophilia is not something I want to think about.
There is a great Superboy issue (one of the 100 page spectaculars) where Superboy take Lana with him to a Legion of Super Heroes meeting for her birthday (because, after all, what are you going to give her?) and they deal with the Legion of Super Traitors, if I remember correctly.
Anyway, over at WHAT WERE THEY THINKING, a scene was posted from that story where Superboy is just hanging in her window ready to take her with him to the 30th century (in her pajamas) -- and it IS awful creepy. But in all the years I've read that story I never noticed till then.
I guess a lot of the Legion stories are full of that unhealthy vibe that I didn't notice as a kid!
[typo: Before I fixed it, I had typed "Legion of Super Herpes" which is clearly a Marvel title.]

ReplyDeleteAnd yet, I can't stop thinking about it...
Okay -- here we go.

Even more than the conversion, that's just a great re-paint on Firestar's head.
ReplyDeleteScarey breasts on that heroclix figure
ReplyDeleteI only want to play goofy characters like yours. And I can't afford the fine works you've commissioned.
ReplyDeleteI do give volume discounts...
Scott,
ReplyDeleteI like big monkeys, too.
If you put M'sieur Mallah with the Ultrahumanite and Gorilla Grodd and the Detective Chimp pog, yes, that's a substantial team.
And you might be surprise how many goofy characters Wizkids HAS made.
