      I like this, but it is a bit odd that they are using the Toth designed Superman, and not the later Galactic Guardians look, which was based on the Garcia Lopez style guide art.

        Not so odd; just a simple repaint of the existing SF Superman sculpt to generate additional revenue with a minimum of effort.

            First we got "battle-damaged" action figures. Then "zombie" versions. Does this begin a long line of dead superheroes?
