ToyFare #148

TOY148CvrTwilight

I forgot to mention this last week–I wrote the cover story for this month’s issue of ToyFare. Yes, I ventured into the world of both Twilight and dolls, and escaped with my masculinity intact.

ToyFare #148 is available in comic shops now and will hit newsstands next week.

They also had prototypes of Teela, Webstor, and DCUC Question on display, as well as Egon and Ray from Ghostbusters. (You can find some photos of Teela in the gallery below, and visit Pendragon’s Post for more). (more…)
