Captain America & Iron Man Stuff to Whet Your Civil War Appetite

Captain America: Civil War is still a week away and if you’re like me you can barely contain your excitement!

So, to help wile away the hours until then, here’s some stuff to peruse. Enjoy!

Superhero Squad Cards

When the boy was little he had all these cute little Marvel action figures that he just loved. Apparently they were really popular because they also spawned a TV show, a video game, and a set of trading cards. Here’s a sampling:

Yeah, you’re gonna want to download this one. If for no other reason thatn to help Hulk with the problem in his pants. I’m not kidding.

Batman vs Superman – The Winner Is…

With Batman vs Superman coming out soon, I thought I’d revisit some of the great Batman & Superman stuff I’ve shared over the years. Maybe it will help us decide who’s gonna win. Lets start with…

Whitman Superman Card Game

Batman vs Superman Pic 1This Superman card game plays kind of like Uno and includes standard Superman characters including Lois Lane, Supergirl, and Krypto (labeled as Superdog). But who are these two?
Batman vs Superman Pic 2

Batman vs Superman Pic 3

I’m no Superman aficionado, but they don’t ring any bells with me. And is that a stray Omega Beam hitting Melba in the elbow?

Check out the whole thing here. Not a bad start, but then there’s…

It’s Fun to Be a Batman

Batman vs Superman Pic 4

Wow. I don’t even really know where to start on this one. I mean, look at at these…

Batman vs Superman Pic 5

Batman vs Superman Pic 6

Yeah, you just can’t unsee that. Good luck.

Check all the rest of the sordid, and I mean sordid, pics here. OK, back to Supes…

Superman Greeting Cards

Batman vs Superman Pic 7

OK, to be fair these 1978 DC greeting cards aren’t all just Superman, but predominantly so.

Batman vs Superman Pic 8

Batman vs Superman Pic 9

These cards are some of my absolute favorites and you really should go see and download them all.

Those are pretty strong, but now we have…

Unnecessary LEGO Batman Vehicles

Batman vs Superman Pic 10

Batman’s stable of Bat-vehicles is well documented, but I built a bunch of lesser-known machines (like the Bat-Tractor above) that you just know Batman has off in some Bat-shed somewhere. Here’s a few more:

Batman vs Superman Pic 11

That’s the Bat-Segway.

Batman vs Superman Pic 12

And the Bat-Pogo-Stick.

See the rest of my LEGO Batman vehicles here.

Hmmm… I’m not sure there’s a clear winner yet, so maybe we let this set of stickers decide?

Batman vs Superman, 1978 Sticker Card Edition

There are 12 cards where Superman is pictured, including these where both Lois and Clark are dreaming of Superman:

Batman vs Superman Pic 13

Batman vs Superman Pic 14

But there’s only 3 cards featuring Batman.

Batman vs Superman Pic 15

Check out the entire collection here.

So does that give Superman the win? I don’t think so.

For my money, the clear winner in Batman vs Superman is going to be…

Wonder Woman!

That’s right, Wonder Woman. Finally everyone’s favorite Amazon is getting some big screen time and that makes her the clear winner in my book!

So here’s some of my Wonder Woman stuff to peruse:

So that’s it for my Batman vs Superman roundup. Who do you think will win?
