I'll admit it, I'm an Earth-2 junkie! The very first DC Comic I ever browsed was my older brother's copy of JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA #91 - which just happened to be part 1 of 1971's installment of the annual JLA/JSA teamup! I was captivated by the duplicate heroes of 2 earths - 2 Flashes, 2 Green Lanterns, 2 Atoms that looked
After starting and stopping several times over the last few months, I finally finished my custom DC Direct 13" set of The Law's Legionnaires (AKA The Seven Soldiers of Victory). Of course, Wing How never got any credit, so the number of figures actually totals eight!
First up, the Star-Spangled Kid and Stripesy:
Yeah, I believe either Golden Age Green Lantern or Justice Batman was the last release. One of the reasons I started doing customs again...
Those were indeed the last two produced, and in the order you listed them, IIRC. They were just getting good, too. I was kind of blown away by the head sculpts on the Kingdom Come Supes, Alan Scott GL, and Justice Batman. I avoided a lot of the DC Direct 13"ers because of bland sculpts, but the pics I've seen of the Sideshow 1/6 figures give me hope. I just hope they keep them reasonable, price-wise.
GREAT job on the Hawkman.....is that a mask or a resin head with mask ?
The head is a combination of parts: the base is a DCD Classic Batman head with the ears carved off, the wings are from a Famous Covers Thor helmet, the ears are from a DCD Martian Manhunter, and the hawk nose was sculpted from Super Sculpy. Then I repainted everything. I'm limited in my sculpting ability, so I generally try to repurpose existing heads rather than sculpt from scratch.

As hinted at in my last thread, I've been working on another DC Super-Team for the past several weeks. Originally created in the Golden Age and published individually in various magazines by Quality Comics, in 1973 DC Comics banded them together as the Freedom Fighters and featured them in JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA #107 &
