I have absolutely no information on the release date or pricing of these statues, but I can guarantee you one thing; I will be buying and displaying every single one of these works of art.  These are so much better than those Women of the DCU statues that had half the bodies cut off and embedded in a pillar.

UPDATE:
Pricing $99 each
Wonder Woman – June 2009
Zatanna – August 2009
Catwoman – October 2009

Black Canary – November 2009

Things are all wrapped up at the New York Comic Con, but we’ve another rapid-fire roundup of items from the New York Comic Con.

  • The final DC panel kicked off with talks of the economy and the rising cost of comics as print publishing continues to tumble to obscurity.
  • Dan DiDio polled the audience, and the general consensus was readers don’t care if the artist on the cover matched the artist on the inside.
  • Are you a Barry and Hal, or a Wally and Kyle?
  • DiDio reiterated what was said in the Marvel panel earlier; event comics are selling, which means readers are going to see more of them.
  • Every time I go through the checkout line at the grocery store, I am besieged by Archie Comics in digest form.  Should DC do the same thing with its kids line of comics?  Seems like a fair enough question and a pretty good idea.

It’s a very short summary, but it wasn’t really a panel that featured a lot of announcements, rather feedback from the fans. Plus, it’s been a long weekend, and I’m tired.

If you want to hear all of the DC panels, be sure to head over to iTunes and download them all from the Official DC Comics Podcast.

Oh, Baby!  Now this is the stuff I want to see when I go to a comic book convention – all the new action figures coming down the pipe.  Mattel always has a good booth showcasing its stuff, and if these images are an indication of what is to come, my wallet is going to by mighty thin by year’s end.

Brian Michael Bendis has confirmed that the FX network is actively developing a pilot based on the BMB/Michael Avon Oeming Powers series.

“‘Powers’ is in active development as a pilot at FX,” Bendis told MTV. “I just handed in a draft to the network and we’re getting our notes from the network as soon as this thing is over. So next week I’ll get the notes, and as long as they don’t involve sock puppets and some sort of orgy scene that I’m not interested in, then hopefully it will go in the right direction.”

While active development is a long way from post production, it is good a major cable network is looking at a superhero title for its next gritty crime drama series.

Even though FX hasn’t asked for your input, who would you like to see in the title roles?
