Wow. Ed McGuiness-designed JLAers. Did not see that coming. Why can't they do this with Jim Lee?

I like that Hal Jordan. I'm guessing he is a 12" figure or something.
I really like Identity Crisis series 2. Elongated man looks pretty cool. Captain Boomerang means another Rogue member. And that Black Canary looks like a bad ass!
I think I can pass on the JLA figures.

With thte superman set that will eventually come out you will get a normal Superman and probally a wonder woman and another Batman. While he has done cover work for Green Lnatern and has sketches of other JLA members, i think they are in Superman so there might be a slight possibilty of getting a couple more. and if the idenity crisis are supposed to supposed to be based off Turner's design, i do not think they came out well, though his look would be hard to capture. |

yeah, the JLA was in that Superman story. I am not a huge fan of Ed's art but for some reason it looks good in figure form while turners art is amazing but doesnt translate that well to Figure.

I personally don't think either of their styles transfers well to 3D. That WW just looks ridiculous as designed by McGuiness, and Turner's figures are way too top-heavy (and surprisingly, I'm not referring to the women). The only artists I can think of whose art I thought translated really well are Jim Lee, Alex Ross, and Art Adams. I hated the Frank Miller Dark Knight figures, and don't think the Tim Sale Long Halloween figures look very good. |

I can't say I really care for any of these figures.

I liked Miller's figures, although I think a set based on the Dark Knight Strikes Again would be even cooler. But i also think the Long Halloween set looks cool as it represents Sale's art well. |

Very nicely done. Yet, I still dont understand why they made Green Lantern black? Do the Hal Jordan version! Hal is the only REAL Green Lantern

Wouldn't the REAL Green Lantern be Alan Scott? Green Lantern? Yes. But Alan Scott isn't a real Green Lantern in the sense that he is powered by the battery on Oa and serves the Gaurdians. Scott's ring works using magic. |

Scott's ring works using magic. Exactly. Hal Jordan is Earth's best Green Lantern out of the Lantern Corps! I sure am happy Hal's back as our favorite ringslinger! Those JLA figs still can't replace the Superpowers figures from 1984... |
