If your loved one is a comic fan, then you might want to gift them this cool Spider-Man Valentines Heart Box at Amazon. It comes with ten individually wrapped chocolate candies. The heart-shaped tin can be reused for keepsakes or for decoration.

Here are the last two of the Lego Minifigures: Spider-Man Across the Spider-Verse at Amazon. The Miles Morales Prowler figure has oversized gloves and a disc that may be a shield or a manhole cover.
The Werewolf Spider-Man figure is by far my favorite one. He does not come with any accessories, but he has a wicked tail.

Here are two more Lego Minifigures: Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse at Amazon. The Spider-Man India figure has two cups and a cat wearing a mask.
Web-Slinger has to be one of my favorite Lego minifigures. The cowboy comes with a hat, bandanna, a shoulder cape printed with webs and a spider, a lasso and a horse wearing a mask.

I bought six blind boxes of Lego Minifigures: Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse at Amazon and they finally arrived last week. There are twelve figures based on the 2023 animated movie, Spider-Man Across the Spider-Verse. I ended up with half of the set that I will be showing over the next few weeks.
The set features Miles Morales Spider-Man, Spider-Man Punk, Prowler, Spider Gwen, Spider-Man 2099, Spider-Man India with Spider-Cat, Cyborg Spider-Woman, Sun-Spider, Spider-Byte, Spider-Man and May "Mayday" Parker, Web-Slinger with Spider-Horse and Werewolf Spider-Man. Several of the figures features alternative heads and accessories.
The back of the checklist has general instructions on how to put the Lego minifigures together. The pieces are very small and I dropped a few pieces putting some of them together.

You can still get the Mighty Marvel 2026 Calendear at Amazon. It's the first re-issue of the 1976 calendar and measures 12" x 24" when open. Each month features superheroes in full color with major holidays.
The back cover of Mighty Marvel 2026 Calendar at Amazon states "Explore America's history alongside Marvel's iconic super heroes with this calendar originally created in 1976 and reproduced now for the first time ever!"

I don't know how I missed Marvel Zombies: Red Band #1 since Marvel released it on September 17, 2025. The normal covers feature the Fantastic Four as zombies coming for you. The first alternate retro cover features the Fantastic Four zombies attacking Spider-Man, Iron Man, Hulk, and Daredevil plus a small Zombie Thor in the lower right-hand corner. The second alternate cover features the Fantastic Four zombies battling Iron Man. The third alternate cover features Zombie Thanos and is basically an ad for the Marvel Zombies tv series on Disney+, which I have watched. The fourth alternate cover features Zombie Bruce Banner turning into Zombie Hulk. The fifth alternate cover features Zombie Reed Richards attacking Spider-Man.
Here's the official summary:
"THE DEAD RISE AGAIN FOR THE FIRST TIME! It was the most important space flight in the history of the Marvel Universe — four intrepid heroes took off into the unknown and returned changed, gifted with great abilities… and hungering for human flesh! Travel back to the birth of a Marvel Universe parallel to our own but chock-full of horror since its very inception! Which heroes will rise to become the champions we know and love? Which will be torn limb from limb? And which will devour the scraps? Find out in this blood-soaked series!"
If you haven't been reading Archie is Mr. Justice series, then you should. Each issue spotlights the different relationships that being a superhero brings. The first issue focuses on Jughead and Archie's relationship. There is also a cool alternative cover paying homage to the very first Superman cover on DC Comics' Action Comics #1.
Archie is Mr. Justice #2 focuses on Veronica becoming Visionary and there is a cool alternative cover that pays homage to DC Comics' Crisis on Infinite Earths #17 (death of Supergirl).
The third issues focuses on Betty's relationship with Archie as Mr. Justice. There is also a cool alternative cover paying homage to Marvel's Amazing Spider-Man #50.
The next issue is going to be spotlighting Reggie as Kid Wicked and will be the final issue of this mini series from Archie Comics.
I picked up this Marvel Avengers and Other Heroes #2 magazine at the local Dollar Tree this morning. The cover features Iron Man, Black Panther, Doctor Strange, Captain Marvel and Count Dracula. Most of it is dedicated to the Marvel Avengers Secret Wars story titled "Wings in the Night!" The Avengers (Doctor Strange, Captain Marvel, Ant-Man, Iron Man and Vision) battles Count Dracula as Chthon possesses his body. There are activities like mazes, match games, puzzles and how to draw. Members of the Guardians of the Galaxy only appear once on a match game page. Spider-Man and his friends also appear only once with a two-page crossword puzzle (this should have been devoted to the Avengers). Overall, the magazine is not bad for the price, but I have the feeling that I have read this story before.
Marvel Holiday Tales to Astonish #1 came out yesterday. The cover features Storm, Captain America (the Sam Wilson version), Spider-Man (the Miles Morales version), Kitty Pryde, Doctor Strange, Wolverine, Ben Grimm and Spider-Man (the Peter Parker version). The three stories include the Fantastic Four in "'Twas the Fight Before Christmas", the Uncanny X-Men in "Festival of Fights" and the Spectacular Spider-Men in "Resolutions". Mr. Fantastic, the Invisible Woman and the Human Torch does appear in the Fantastic Four story along with the Thing. Several other Marvel superheroes appear briefly in the first two stories. Shame that none of the stories are centered around Captain America (the Sam Wilson version) or Doctor Strange like the cover suggests. At least, Storm and Wolverine appear more in the X-Men story that is about Kitty Pryde trying to find gifts for her friends.
Avengers: Infinity War is another Marvel movie that I have yet to watch all the way through in one setting. I usually miss the beginning so I was glad to find this DVD at the local Dollar General. The price was only $4.95 and now I can finally watch it all the way through. There are so many superheroes from Doctor Strange to Spider-Man on the front cover that I couldn't tag all of them.
This Marvel Nano Pods Wave 2 Spider-Man is the fifth miniature figurine that I found at the local Walmart's for a dollar each. He looks like he is doing a sumo wrestler pose.
I found eight boxes of Marvel Nano Pods Wave 2 at the local Walmart's last week. They were in the clearance aisle for a dollar each so I got them all. I think I might have seen them earlier this year in the toy aisle but I passed on them because they were between five and six dollars. Half of the boxes had the round clear sticker peeled half off so it appeared that they had either been tampered with or the quality control at Wow! Stuff really sucks. The pods are two by two inches, which makes the figurines about an inch tall. The Marvel Nano Pods Wave 2 includes the following miniature figurines: Super Rare Metallic Star-Lord, Uniform Rocket Raccoon, Black Widow, Star-Lord, Captain Marvel, Attack Rocket Raccoon, Potted Groot, Thor, Spider-Man, Ghost-Spider, Miles Morales, Spider-Man 2099 and Anti-Venom. I will be posting what figurines I got in future posts.
The local Walmart's have their annual display of calendars out and I picked up the Marvel 2024 16-Month Calendar. The first thing that I noticed is that they did away with the shrink wrap. The front cover features Spider-Man, Moon Knight, Captain America and Hulk:
The back cover features a look of all the pages that are inside:
Technically, this is the Hot Wheels Spider-Man Circle Tracker but it has Spider-Girl on the car and the card. It's from 2021 and is #3 of 5 in the Spider-Man set. I don't remember seeing any of the other cars in the set. I finally picked up this one last week at the local Walmart's for $2.97. This is the Anya Corazon version that first appeared in Amazing Fantasy #1 (Marvel; 2004).
I picked up three boxes of this year's superhero Valentines at the local Dollar Tree. That proved to be a bit of a mistake on my part. First off is the Avengers Valentines, which is the same as last year's Avengers Valentines except that it has the following stickers:
The eleventh sticker in the Marvel Super Hero Adventures set is what I call Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends. Peter Parker aka Spider-Man is shown with Miles Morales aka Ultimate Spider-Man on one side and Gwen Stacy aka Spider[Gwen on the other side. The background graphics of the city buildings and black spider is pretty cool too. The other thing cooler would have been to seen Spider-Man's original amazing friends, which were Firestar and Iceman.
There are a lot of characters on this Marvel Super Hero Adventures Sticker #10: Spider-Man and the Avengers. There is Spider-Man and his amazing friends, Gwen Stacey aka Spider-Gwen and Miles Morales aka the Ultimate Spider-Man. The Avengers are represented by the Hulk, Black Widow, Thor, Captain America, Black Panther, Antman, Ms. Marvel, Wasp and Iron Man. Whew, that's a lot of characters for a vending machine sticker based on a Disney cartoon series.
