BAT-BLOG BATMAN TOYS and COLLECTIBLES

BAT-BLOG BATMAN TOYS and COLLECTIBLES

Let's Have A Parade!

Welcome back! :)

This time, I'm just putting up some that look like the characters are marching around. :) I've got Charlie Brown and Snoopy being carried around by the rest of the Peanuts gang, with other cartoon characters looking on. :)



These next two are just welcoming visitors to the old Cartoon Message Board. :) These banners may not be much (I KNOW they aren't!), but I had fun makin' 'em! ;)



I'll have more banners for you to enjoy later! :)

Lights, Camera, ACTION!

Hello! This time we've got two banners made for the DC Message Board. Only one had actually been posted there, though. I'd made the Superman, Green Lantern, and Batman one first, then decided against using it, since 1) I'd made a few banners with each hero already, and 2) they each had their OWN boards. So, the Supergirl, Green Lantern, and Jonah Hex banner is the one that got seen by all. :)



I hope you like both of these. :) I'll be back with more later. :)

The World's Finest!

Hay, their! ;) I'm back with some more banners, and this time I've got Superman and Batman (along with the Joker). These are almost all the actors who'd portrayed the three characters at the time I'd made the banners. I'd left out all of the Superboys since there wouldn't have been any room to include them! ;)

I was ALWAYS sorry I never got to see the George Reeves Superman meet up with the Adam West Batman on TV when I was growing up in the '60's, like they had in the comics. How INSANELY cool would THAT have been? Get an actor in a bald cap to portray Luthor, and you'd've had a WINNER. :)

These banners were seen on the Superman and Batman Message Boards.

Without further ado, here are all of the banners. :)

Kirk Alyn, George Reeves, Christopher Reeve, Dean Cain, and Brandon Routh


Lewis Wilson, Robert Lowery, Adam West, and Michael Keaton


Cesar Romero, Jack Nicholson, and Heath Ledger


That'll do it for now, but I WILL be back later with MORE banners for your perusal. :)

Several More!

I've got quite a few banners to go through this time around. I don't even know if all of these had been used in the past. I KNEW I had 'em, though, SOMEWHERE in my files, and finally found 'em this weekend! :)

You'll notice that a LOT of 'em are very plain, and don't have much on 'em at all. This is because these are some of my very earliest creations, and I just wanted to get 'em up. I didn't care if they were great or not, but I DID wanna go for SOME kind of originality. :)





All of these banners came from The Golden-Silver-Bronze Ages Message Board and The Justice League Of America Message Board. I've always liked the Justice Society Of America, and that's why I did the one with the original Green Lantern and Flash, and the Spider-Man/Archies one was just created for fun. It turned out to be the ONLY Spider-Man banner the moderator had for the board at the time, and THAT turned out to be the one used to celebrate the first Spider-Man movie when it first came out several years back! :)


This banner is the one I'd posted here, but in a larger size, and with the name of the message board on it. :) It's still one of my favorite banners with several of my favorite serials displayed on it. :)

Now, I'll be back later with more banners that I hope you'll like! :)

More Schtuff!

This time I've got some Legion Of Super-Heroes Message Board banners and Batman Message Board banners by Neal Adams (the BEST Batman artist EVER). :)

Now, I was always a fan of the Silver and Bronze Age Legions, and that's what these two banners will reflect. :)



I didn't care much for the Legion after DC had Superboy leave, though. Some of the "magic" left, and it never quite returned.



As I said before, I always enjoyed Batman and Robin more than just Batman, and the contrast in the colors of their uniforms really struck me. :) Even though I didn't like THE Batman at first, one thing I DID like was that contrast Batman and Robin showed.

One thing that I always liked was how Robin was ALWAYS older than me, until about 1980, the year he dropped out of college. I was ALWAYS older than Robin after that, and for some reason, that NEVER felt right! LOL :)

I'll be back later with more banners for your perusal! :)

More Cartoon Banners!

I've got some of my favorite shows from my mis-spent youth as banners this time around.









I grew up on Superman, Birdman, The Mighty Heroes, Bugs Bunny and more back in the 1960's and 1970's. I guess that's why so few of my Cartoon Board banners dealt with modern cartoons. I don't watch cartoons too much nowadays except for Boomerang, Cartoon Network (rarely), and youtube. They just aren't quite as good as the stuff from my youth. ;)

I'll be back with more later! :)
