More STAR WARS figures coming out - - - ROGUE ONE!

By pghhead -

EDITOR’S NOTE: Holy collectibles, Batman!  Diamond is bringing out so many cool action figures in the month of April - - what a tease!  No way could we afford to buy them all.  Also, no way a comic shop is going to be able to stock multiple figures of all of these. Which once again brings us to our point about Pre-Orders.  You like what you see? You want to buy it?  Do yourself and your local comic shop a favor and pre-order these items.  You don’t have to pay until you pick them up - - and they’ll be waiting for you and no one else.  The only way to make sure you can get one. (We haven’t even featured even one of the figures debuting in April. These are just the ones that really caught our eye!)



Rogue One UWing

(BALTIMORE, MD) – (February 09, 2017) – The Empire and Rebellion clash at local comic shops as Diamond Comic Distributors and Beast Kingdom offer more selections from their line of PREVIEWS Exclusive (PX) Egg Attack Figures.

 

Rogue One Stormtrooper

The Rebellion’s new U-Wing fighter utilizes unique electromagnetic attraction and repulsion principles to float in the air—unveiled just before the release of Rogue One this has become a popular new piece of Star Wars lore. The Darth Vader Rogue One figure faithfully represents the setting in the film with Vader’s cape and vest made with real fabrics and metal wire, along with three pairs of extra hands and his indispensable lightsaber. With weapon accessories like the SE-14 blaster pistol and E-11 blaster rifle, the Rogue One Stormtrooper comes ready to enact the Empire’s wrath and features a faithful reproduction of the Stormtrooper’s appearance in the most recent film.

 

These three PREVIEWS Exclusive figures are featured in the February issue of Diamond’s PREVIEWS catalog. The U-Wing carries a suggested retail price of $165, while the Darth Vader and Stormtrooper figures carry $73. Both will be available in stores April 2017.

  • STAR WARS: ROGUE ONE U-WING PX AF MAGNETIC FLOATING V (FEB173054)
  • STAR WARS: ROGUE ONE DARTH VADER PX AF (FEB173055) 
  • STAR WARS: ROGUE ONE STORMTROOPER PX AF (FEB173056)

Robert Kirkman: Invincible, Walking Dead, Wolf-Man

I wasn't actually a huge fan of Robert Kirkman when I first started reading his books.  He was competent, sure, but I didn't see the appeal-- The Irredeemable Ant-Man was a boring side story in the middle of  Civil War and  The Initiative (although I've since changed my mind about this), and his  Ultimate X-Men run was, in many places, a mixed bag (although I did very much enjoy his "Phoenix?" storyline).  And  Marvel Zombies  just seemed like a ridiculous idea--not that I bothered to try it at the time. Now, though?  I've completely reevaluated my opinion on his work, and when his name is attached to a project, I'm far more likely to give it a look.  I don't know if I'd classify him as a master storyteller or a comics icon--but he's very skilled, he has an incredible knack for dialog, and he writes stories that, no matter how ridiculous, seem real .  In a medium where characters frequently violate the rules of physics, that's not alway

What else did I finish reading last month?  Here’s a cross-section of various titles . . . . . . . . . WITCHBLADE #126 “War Of The Witchblade Part 2” by Ron Marz and Stejepan Sejic  (Top Cow/Image) Preface:  Now here’s an interesting concept! = In order to attract new readers to its’ titles Top Cow is giving out free books each month as part of it’s Let Us Win You Over project.  ( www.topcow.com/freecomics )  Every month it’s a different title. And they work through different comics shops each month as well.  In April the title was Witchblade #126 and one of the participating dealers was Captain Blue Hen Comics in Newark, DE (my preferred supplier) so voila! - - - I find a copy in my hands. Since the last time I explored the Witchblade series the mythology has expanded to a battle between the forces of light and dark with each side choosing its agents on Earth, hence the Darkness vs. the Witchblade.  I’m still not overly interested in this type of fare on a regular basis, but

INDIE COMICS: Huffin’ & puffin’ B.B. Wolf’s got the blues

BB WOLF AND THE THREE LPs  (Top Shelf, May 2010 hardcover, black & white, 86 pages,   $12.95)  As told by JD Arnold with illustrations by Richard Koslowski What got my attention immediately was the pairing up of a classic fairy tale with musical motifs.  That’s a combination that pushes two of my “hot buttons” - -  so I made it a must-read.  I was not disappointed.  This is a very entertaining and cleverly designed work that rivals Bill Willingham’s  creativity on the long-running FABLES series from Vertigo. As if taking the classic tale of the Big Bad Wolf and the Three Little Pigs and turning it upside down wasn’t enough to interest, BB WOLF AND THE THREE LPS  serves as an allegory for the oppression of  the black population in the deep South (Mississippi) in the 1920’s.  While they may be free (wolves),  the governing bodies (pigs) have the power to deny them their land, homes and possessions and even own the businesses and clubs they patronize as well as the shops they d
