Summer wishlist part 1.
We all have a wishlist of things we want. Since it's Summer, I thought I share what I like to get this mid season.
Batman: The Dark Knight Returns
I'm a big fan of Batman but I don't read a lot of his comic book adventures. That all changed last year when I read my sister's copy of Batman: The Dark Knight Returns. I love this book and I'm very eager to get my hands on this novel.
The book is about Bruce Wayne retiring as Batman after the death of Jason Todd. Skip over to ten years, Gotham City is in shambles, Gordon is retiring as police chief, Superman is a tool for the government, and the Joker is actually a souless puppet (Because Batman is no more.) Bruce Wayne, now in his fifties, decides to return once more as Batman to finally rid gotten of it's future demise. There is much more to the story (So much that I don't want ruin it for anyone that hasn't read it) but I will say one thing: Batman owns Superman!!
Batman: Hush saga
I've heard a lot good things about the Hush saga. The plot seems to be about a mysterious new bad guy named Hush, who has enlisted the help of the Rogue Gallery(Some of Batman's greatest foes.) The highlights of the series (And the reasons why I want it) include Batman fighting against Superman (Again), Finding out who Hush is, and how in the world did Jason Todd come back to life?
Sota Street Fighter action figures series 1-4.
The Sota Street Fighter toys are excellent. I love the detail and articulation of each figure has and I'm on the hunt to get my hands on all of them. There is a slight problem, the figures are not really sold in my area (Only a few stores get them for limit availability) which means I'm resulted to buying online and fighting dozens of other toy fanatics. Series one, the picture above, is the rarest off the bunch due it's out of print. Prices can fetch up to $70+ for the whole collection but Ryu, the rarest of them all, can alone fetch up to $50+, and sometimes that is out of the box. Series two (below) is somewhat rare but not as bad as series one.
Series three, which includes Guile and Sakura, is still widespread available (Good thing because I need another Sakura and Barlog figure. Both of them broke.)
Series four above just came out and already getting a lot attention. I'd better act quick.
What are you guys looking forward too?

Would it be sad if I said I wasn't looking forward to anything? I guess I'm looking forward to warm weather, and spending more time with my friends. The 4th is always great around here so that should be fun. I suppose that's about it. I guess you could say I'm looking forward to summer itself.
And yes, Batman kicks Superman's ass!!!
No, no it doesn't. A person who values their life, family, friends, and the world around them is a very honest, good-hearted person (In my eyes at least.) That is good thing.
Looking forward to an entire weeks holiday waking each morning with nothing to do and the entire day to do it. Love the Hush saga batman collage.
