The Spectacular Spider-Man
It looks like we have a few new villains in the Spectacular Spider-Man line:
Now, I’m sure I’ve mentioned this before, but I LOVE this show! I was a tad upset when I first heard that this would be replacing The Batman, especially since the introduction of The Justice League had made that cartoon so much better, but Spectacular Spider-Man started clicking right away, and I can not wait for season 2 to debut!
New Marvel Select
Before there was Marvel Legends…there was Marvel Select! Here is the newest figure, due out early 2009!
