 |  Elongated Man is a definite GET. Ventriloquist & Scarface maybe. Gold is a NO and that Kid Flash doesn't even get consideration.  I would have loved a Wally West Kid Flash, but not this travesty. |

 |  Golden Age DC characters to reinvent, editorial decided to create an
 imitation Plastic Man, and thus Ralph Dibney was invented.
 
 Only later did someone point out that DC actually owned the rights to
 Plastic Man.<<<
 
 
 Interesting. Never knew that.

 best costume designs ever.

 Wow! Didn't realize! All these years I've thought they were a Neal Adams
 change!
 
 Thanks, JB!

          Picked up the Cliff Steele Robotman figure today (hadn't planned to, I just loves my robots).  Downside: Since this is a figure of the earlier Robotman, the accompanying magazine features art from all the Grant Morrison whoohah and NONE of JB's.
