Captions for Moonraker trading cards…or names of sex acts.

Well, okay, this is James Bond we’re talking about…they’re probably both card captions and sex acts.

Anyway, speaking of Jaws, I really hope a new, “rebooted” version of the character doesn’t appear in the new James Bond films. I prefer to think he remains reformed and that he and Dolly, as seen here:


…live happily ever after. Yeah, I’m a big sap.

Anyway, let’s get a good look at this handsome bastard:


Pretty sure “Agent 007” is the name of a sex act of some kind, too.

What a Wookiee.

So let’s wrap up at least this week’s worth of trading card posts (I haven’t even got to the Moonraker or Battlestar Galactica cards yet!) with a long, lingering, and hairy look at everyone’s favorite Wookiee. No, no, not this guy what with his enjoyment of virtual erotica…I’m talkin’ about Chewbacca:


And here’s a shot of him with his best, and clearly cheery, pal, Han Solo:


Here’s a card that has a caption so nice…


…they used it twice:


And remember, kids: spiff up your Wookiee…


…and check him regularly for ticks and worms.

Is there anything more topical than a handful of X-Men pins from the 1990s?

Came across a few of these while going through some boxes at the store:

“Do you have a small metal pin with a close-up of Cyclops’ grimacing, visorless face in a snowstorm?” “Why, as a matter o’fact….”


BEHOLD: cloisonné stubble:


That may have been too much detail, but on the other hand…granted, this next pin’s actual size is only about an inch tall, so there’s only so much detail they can put in. Still, Cable’s near-featureless face and its soul-sucking gaping maw are just plain creepy:


“Limited to 2,500” says the back of this next pin:


I’m pretty sure they did pins for the other covers, too, but I sure hope they did an extra-wide pin for the fold-out version.

There’s not really that much difference between regular Aquaman and Evil Aquaman.

Here’s a neat little item that just happened to fall out of one of the comics in a collection I was processing: a 1997 promo mini-folder (measuring about 4 1/2 inches wide) for DC’s various JLA-related projects:


Oh, the Electric Superman costume…we had no idea how good we had it as far as alternate Superman costumes go.

On the back of the little folder thingie is a shot of the Evil Justice League:


…and I know I joked in the subject of this post that there’s no real difference between the two Aquamen, but…J’onn J’onzz and Kyle Rayner aren’t that much different aside from the skull motifs and Evil Kyle’s spiky hair (a universal sign of evil, natch). That giant creepy smile on Evil Batman though…holy crow.

Inside the folder was JLA project-plugging ahoy:


“Hey, ‘July’ sorta sounds like ‘JLA’ if, you know, you…uh, mispronounce it.” “BRILLIANT! That’s our month…get those fliers printed!”

This Star Wars card set is a big cheater.

Okay, it might not be exactly the same image…either some contrast-adjustment was done, or the stills are one whole frame apart, but…c’mon.
