Super crowded desktop & Super Awesome pulls

[thebitterguy]

So, my desktop is getting kind of crowded.

On one side, I have the Sinister Ten. I'm pretty sure Venom and Hydro Man were never in it, but he looks so NEAT. EDIT: Okay, it looks like at one time or another, everyone was in it. I thnk I may have been in it for a while.

On the other, half a variant FF (Spiderman and Ghost Rider, I need my Hulk and Wolverine), a fragment of Outsiders (Batman and Geo Force; I gotta bring in Black Lightning (in my pants), Katana and Metamorpho), Kyle Lantern and Nightcrawler (because the FF Nightcawler sculpt was so cool). And Hellboy, also because of coolness factor.

Yep. Crowded.

I got four boosters at Toronto Trek of Sinister. Got three Uniques out of it, including Stilt Man and Black Bolt, which rocks, as they are awesome.

I hope you're not saying that Stilt Man is awesome. Even when I read about him as a wee tyke (kindergarden, yo) I thought he was a lame supervillain.

[thebitterguy]

Have you SEEN the fig? He's, like, four inches tall! On STILTS!

Awesome!

I have not seen the fig (I just say no to clix), though I'm sure the 4" highness is awesome in and of itself... but the character himself? Lame.

I think I've only actually seen him in action once during Days of Vengeance, and She Hulk took him out PDQ. It was funny.

Daredevil gets to fight losers.

The she-hulk takedown was funny. I got a glimpse of that, though I didn't actually read the mag itself.

Yeah, Daredevil and Spidey have....wierd rogue's galleries.

Ever notice how we rarely see any pics of Justin with other people? It's b/c he's really a midget, and only takes pics with other vertically-challenged folk, so he'd look up to someone like Stilt-Man.

(Yeah, I can't believe I just said that, either.)

I'm proud of how insensetive to sawed-off half-man bastards everywhere that comment was. Go you!

Hey, I"ve got a rep to uphold.

It took me a reread (or two) to realise you were talking about the top of your desk, as opposed to the desktop of your 'puter.

[troy-duffy.livejournal.com]

I thought he was talking computer desktop right up until I read your post and went "Ohhhh..yeah, ok, that probably DOES make a lot more sense."
In my defense, I can't remember the last time I actually heard someone say "desktop" and actually mean the top of their desks. He's so retro that way :)

It's Black VULCAN who is in your pants. But he prefers Supervolt.

[thebitterguy]

Oh, yeah. I just feel that, deep down, they're pretty much the same guy.

Twin token titans of electricity.

In my pants.

No, wait.

[troy-duffy.livejournal.com]

Wait... there's a chance they AREN'T the same guy? Really?

[thebitterguy]

Well, Black Lightening can't fly, so they could be brothers, or alternate reality versions.

I want a GiantClix version of Apache Chief.

"You felt the need to call yourself BLACK Lightning?"
"Hey, back then, I was the only one."

--only funny line in Infinite Crisis.

[thebitterguy]

Damn. I missed that line entirely. What issue was it it?

[thetathx1138.livejournal.com]

Number seven, I think. The one where Brother Eye gets poked out.
