Knowing where Land likely gets his photo reference from, that Storm cover is quite disturbing.

Being a sash would make sense as it's pretty loose looking on the figure, it's just sculpted to cover her entire crotch, at least at that angle.

She seems to have gained about fifteen pounds since she posed for Alan.

Like those Galactus and Heralds.  Fun stuff.  Makes me wonder how many he's had altogether, I mean in a small time for Galactus he's had these five.  Expand that out and that's a lot of heralds if you have an attrition rate like that!

Re: Galactus and His Heralds

I had the Silver Surfer and my Terrax bust just arrived.
I had no intentions on getting any of the rest (incl. the Galactus bust), but
looking at your display makes me rethink things...




Edited for spelling error.

High attrition rate -- even in real time -- but supposedly the Surfer was Galactus' first herald, so we should not assume even more working backward from him!

I am honored Garett, nice display! I'm thinking of "Upgrading" My Nova bust to the shiny version, I just have to get that past my wife!

" But honey! I know I have one already, but this one is shiny" !

I would hazard a guess that the Surfer, being the original but ultimately
turning against Galactus, led Galactus on a futile search for a replacement
that could never truly match the qualities the Silver Surfer had.

Thus, he goes through a lot, because he has little patience for new recruits
and he's not in the business of keeping them to see if they improve, he just
moves on to the next possible candidate.

Just picked this up today, too -

Hopefully, the "Heroes of the DCU" bust line will include other New Gods at
some point. And yes, the box has "Heroes" crossed off and "Villains"
scrawled over it.
