The Savage Dragon

These just came in yesterday. I've been wanting to get into the Savage Dragon universe for a while now so I'm glad I'll finally be able to. These are issues 1-3 and we're released in 1992.

    I really tried to like the character back when he was new, but just couldn't ever get into him, or his world. Hopefully you'll have better luck with that :)

      The read wasn't incredible but every page offered a nice amount of action. I also like how a new villain made an appearance in every issue.

      Eric Larson was definitely looking to build a world, and I dug that aspect.

    Ah, back in the prime of Image Comics, where it was all about the artist, and not the content. If you really want to dig into Savage Dragon, check out 1982's Graphic Fantasy number one for his first appearance (as just Dragon), and 1986's Megaton number 3 for his first appearance as Savage Dragon.

    I enjoyed these early Savage Dragon books, but my faves have to be his crossovers with the TMNT in the ongoing series issue #2 & #22!

    Was there a cartoon of this character? it seems familiar but I'm not that into comics. I remember seeing him dressed as police officer and having a girlfriend or something.

CT Toys - Spider-Man (Classic)

CT Toys is heavy on my radar right now. I was pleasantly surprised with Wolverine but this Spider-Man figure has made me a full fledged believer. Included are 5 sets of alternate hands, 1 with magnets (6 in all if you count the ones he comes equipped with), 1 extra set of articulated feet with magnets, 4 web streams and an alternate McFarlane style head sculpt. Oh, and a display stand.  I've said in the past how sucky I am at posing action figures. That said, MAFEX/CT figs are great for posing, even if you're not very good at it. It's "kid gloves" with these guys, though, as they are a little gummier than Legends figures.  CT Toys Wolvie and Spidey!  Here's CT Toys Spidey next to a couple of Marvel Legends Spider-Man figures. The differences are pretty pronoun...

1990 Toy Biz Marvel Superheroes Daredevil

Growing up we had lots of cool superhero toys to collect. There was never a shortage of Batman, Superman or Spiderman figures in the toy aisles. Mainstream characters got all the love. Dudes like Daredevil, not so much. That all changed in the mid to late 80's (Mattel Secret Wars) and in 1990 Toy Biz would start releasing their seemingly neverending line of Marvel Superheroes that gave us action figures of everybody from  Daredevil to Deathlok.
