MATTEL DUMPS DC RETRO ACTION FIGURES!

As a fellow Mego fan I'm sure you can agree with me, Mattel's decision to call off their 8" Mego inspired DC Retro Action figures just plain SUCKS!!!!! Oh well, look at it on the positive side, We finally got a Mego style Flash, Green Lantern, Cheetah, Captain Cold, Two-Face, Darkseid, Martian Manhunter, Lex Luthor, Black Manta, and others, so things ain't that bad, I guess....

Meanwhile, check out this cool Video petition put together by a few guys over at Megomuseum.com. I'm sure You'll enjoy, and remember to make sure your voice is heard!

*For those not familar with the character here is a brief backstory from ComicVine..

In 1940, Will Eisner produced a special comic book section that was designed as an insert for Sunday newspapers around the country. The 16 pages of material consisted of an eight page Spirit story by Will Eisner, a four page Lady Luck story, initially by Dick French and Charles Mazoujian, and a four page Magician called Mr. Mystic. The green-clad heroine was later drawn by Nick Cardy, then taken over by Klaus Nordling, who became best known of her artists.

The character was part of the newspaper strip section until 1946, when it was eliminated as the section dropped to eight pages.The stories were reprinted by Quality Comics in the pages of SMASH COMICS and LADY LUCK COMICS until 1950. Since then, a few collector's editions have reprinted samples of the material.
