I've been avoiding the DC Bombshells line because I have a tendency to be completist with these sorts of things (plus I don't share the artist's fondness for anachronistic tattoos), but I really like this mash-up of Hawkgirl and Commando Cody/Rocketeer-type jet pack heroes, so I might give in.

I saw the Hela statue at Midtown the other day. The smoke looks better in real life, but the pose lacks the flow that the hand sculpted pieces capture.

It has been a trend at Bowen to create more 'museum' poses. Apparently these fit better on shelves and in groups.

That Doctor Doom looks like he could have stepped out of a PROPER Fantastic Four film adaptation!
