Batman: Twilight of the Dark Knight Book 1 – BillsComics.com

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice opens today, and it’s loosely based on the classic comic, The Dark Knight Returns. Bill has shared with us his take on the final days of the Dark Knight before he goes into retirement – Twilight of the Dark Knight is a prequel to TDKR, if you will. As such, you’ll find a few Easter eggs if you’re familiar with that comic.

This is just the first chapter of a multi-part saga. Stay tuned for Book 2, and be sure to check out the rest of Bill’s work here at AFP and at Bill’s Comics.

Marvel Legends Captain America Civil War Giant Man Wave – Packaged Pics First Look

Hasbro released a press pic of the Build-a-Figure from the second Captain America wave of Marvel Legends – Giant Man from the Captain America: Civil War movie due out May 6 this year. The assortment should hit shelves this summer and will include Captain America, Iron Man in the Mark 46 armor, and Black Panther figures from the upcoming film, as well as Nuke, Nick Fury, and Red Guardian figures from the comics.

In addition to the pic of Giant Man, I was lucky enough to find fresh cases of the Cap wave at a local toy store during a recent trip to Asia. Apologies in advance for any blurry shots – I was hastily snapping shots and putting the figures back into the cases, as they were exorbitantly expensive. But I was able to get some pics of each of the six figures, including some close-ups of the alternate heads that will come with a few of them.

Toy Fair 2016: Four Horsemen Mythic Legions – Pre-Order Opens Today

Seeing the Four Horsemen is one of my favorite stops at Toy Fair. It’s always been great to talk about their work with Mattel on DC, Masters of the Universe Classics, and now Thundercats, but it’s a special treat when they’ve got their own brands to show off. Their Toy Fair booth was predominantly about their Kickstarter Mythic Legions line, which after some delays is approaching the finish line. Most of what was on display were actual factory production figures.

And they’ve revealed that there’s more to come!

Toy Fair 2016: Mattel DC Multiverse and Suicide Squad

For those of you lamenting the death of DC Universe Classics, rest assured, Mattel is beginning to ramp up DC Comics-based figures again. And they will continue to collaborate with the Four Horsemen on them. However, if you are hoping for the return of a retail line solely focused on DC / Four Horsemen figures, that’s not happening in the near term.

Mattel’s strategy to have one line that encapsulates comics, movies, TV, and video game figures is working for them. The Four Horsemen, who were once the sole collaborators on collector-oriented DC figures from Mattel, will still have a portion of that – mostly the comics-inspired figures. Most of the others are falling outside the 4H aesthetic and are being done internally or by other design partners.
