Today's the day to head to your Local Comic Shop to pick up Action Comics #1076 Cover E "McFarlane Toys Card Stock Variant"! You know, the one with a Booster Gold DC Super Powers action figure on it.

It was the Blot who first pointed out this cover to us. No coincidence that it was also the Blot who ordered a whole case of Booster Gold DC Super Powers action figures.

If there is one flaw with those Booster Gold DC Super Powers action figures, it's that it doesn't come with Skeets. Well, Blot has found a solution for that, too.

There’s a guy on Etsy making awesome 3D printed accessories for McFarlane Toys' Super Powers toy line. He just made a Skeets that attaches to the back of Booster's neck (sort of how capes go on). He sells a painted and unpainted version. Got mine yesterday and it's fantastic! Pics of mine below.

The seller is NerdCandyStore, and you can visit their store on Etsy.com.

Thanks for the find, Blot.

Since I was speaking of the Blot and McFarlane Toys on Monday, I might as well repost this:

I can't even begin to imagine what I would do with a box full of Booster Gold, but I'm happy you're happy, Blot.

The Blot got in touch this weekend to say, well, this:

Hey! Check out this McFarlane Toys Super Powers variant cover to Action Comics #1076 featuring the latest Booster Gold action figure. Kinda crazy. Just learned about it.

Good find, Blot!

According to the original DC Comics November 2024 solicitation, Action Comics #1076 will have six different covers: Cover A, two artist variants, a Creature Commandos variant, a McFarlane Toys variant, and a 1:25 retailer incentive variant. As we now know, this is the McFarlane Toys one of those.

DC's distributor, Lunar Distribution, has this listed as a "ACTION COMICS #1076 CVR E MCFARLANE TOYS CARD STOCK VAR" with cover price of $5.99. The book will be released on November 20, but If you want it, be sure to tell your Local Comic Shop today, as today is the Final Order Cut-off deadline for orders.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, Blot.

Booster booster Rob Snow has finally got his hands on the new McFarlane Super Powers Booster Gold figure, and he sent me this pic of our hero alongside his best bud, Blue Beetle!

Is that an optical illusion, or is Booster really half-a-head taller than Beetle? (According to Who's Who, Booster is 6' 5" while Beetle is 5' 11".) I asked Rob, who confirmed what my eyes had seen:

"Hes quite a bit taller. Had to scrunch him down into the Bug."

The only way they could be more comics-accurate is if Booster's Power Action was being airsick in the Bug!

Thanks for sharing, Rob.

Today's thing that is bothering me: I don't know who drew the art on the front of the blister card for the McFarlane Toys Super Powers Collection Booster Gold action figure.

Do you know? Can you tell me?
