Title: Did YOU Get Superman Swag For Christmas?
Post by: Gernot on December 26, 2004, 08:18:53 AM
Here's what I got SO far:

Hand-held electronic Solitaire game
Superman Radio Episodes on CD ("Batman's Great Mystery")

TPBs:

Generations 2
Day Of Doom
Tales Of The Bizarro World
'Til Death Do Us Part
Return To Krypton
President Lex
They Saved Luthor's Brain
Exile
Zero Hour

DVDs:

Smallville Season 2
50 Cartoon Greats (Superman, Popeye, Mighty Mouse, and others)

I had all of these (recent) books in the original form (comics), but a lot got destroyed from a leaky basement, then lost in a move.

Not all of my presents arrived in time for Christmas, so I'm gonna be getting schtuff for a week or two yet! Woo Hoo!

I hope everybody reading this has as great of a Christmas as I've had!

Merry Christmas, all!

Gernot...

All I got was the Superman carousel tin toy.

Well intentioned but I don't really know what to do with it.  There's some fantastic Wayne Boring artwork on the box, though.

I've got that!  I just stuck it on one of my shelves, and it sits there now!  ;)

A Superman t-shirt (the logo) and the 2-disc Superman: The Movie soundtrack.  :D

Don't know if it counts, but I got Gerard Jones' new book, "Men of Tomorrow," which apparently devotes a lot of space to Seigel and Shuster's struggles with DC (haven't red it yet - I have to finish a couple other books before I can dive into this one!).

Also as a real "out of left field" surprise, my mom gave me a vintage belt she found in an antique store with some cool Superman graphics on it (the belt, not the store).

Except the Man of Tomorrow Archives -- which I already bought myself -- there wasn't much worth getting this year anyway.  The good stuff is coming in 2005, including "The Adventures of Superman" and Superman: The Animated Series on DVD and action figures of battlesuit Luthor, silver robot Brainiac, Earth-2 Superman and (gasp!) Composite Superman!   :shock:

Amazon


Sometimes they sell copies for very cheap in the used and new section.
