mynycclogoAfter a short visit to the Artist’s Alley for some autographs and visual self gratification (like I bought some nice art at the alley…) and a few panels on writing for comics (Yes, I STILL want to write for comics someday…never too old for dreaming) I had my happy run through the Exhibition Floor and grabbed the newest Joker wonders to hit the market this year and the next.  Can’t wait to set my hands in some of these cuties…

I was browsing the net for new figures to acquire, when I stumbled into these…

From a report from this year’s GENCON (the longest, best attended gaming convention in the world according to its site HERE) come these new Joker and Harley Heroclix figures. They will come in a new Batman set and are said to include a “Duo Action” and an “Indomitable” abilities. (I’m not a player, but you guys maybe grasp these concepts better)  I can’t wait to add these guys to my collection though… Here are the pics:
