Agreed. We can't get DC characters like Nightwing, Raven, Two-Face, Penguin or Riddler, but we can get multiple statue companies making the entire line of the Death Metal characters.

I haven’t read any Death Metal stuff and probably won’t. DC does seem to be pushing that everywhere though.

Wish we would get some prints from Middleton, Jones and Frison. Geez, those are just sure-fire sellers.

You're probably right. I liked some of the character designs, but I honestly don't remember much of anything about the story. It's such a weird thing to push when collectors are waiting for so many other characters from more popular stories to get their day in the sun.

It's possible DC might really think the Death Metal storyline was a hit. I didn't like it, but DC must love it.

Yeah, there's a lot of Jenny Frison prints I would buy. Honestly, it feels like even their art print selection has plummeted in terms of quality.

I love art prints, but it's been a year+ drought for me in terms of Sideshow offerings. I keep hoping a killer drop is right around the corner.

Me too. Every Thursday, I check to see if it's something super amazing (for me) like that new Artgerm Emma Frost or Dazzler, and every Thursday, it's a new Batman print

Are the aluminum prints worth it for the higher price? Waiting on the new Thor print to go on sale

I love them. I have three. But, you have to really love the art because they are a lot more expensive.
