The reason that Batman Beyond suit is green is because is made of kryptonite. As for that Superman Lord costume comes from the Justice League/Unlimited series. That´s his evil version.
Justice Lord Superman is DEFINITELY one of his best looks of all time. Add to the fact that the Justice Lords concept is a VERY iconic part of the DCAU & DC in general... Then you get the picture. 🎉
Unfortunately WB and DC haven't been able to get anything right aside form their toys the last few years. Hopefully Gunn turns it around. @@MistyDusker
That's Justice Lord Superman, who was introduced in the Justice League cartoon from 2001. Evil variants of the Justice League That Batman Beyond suit is the kryponite laced suit like someone mentioned already Great review as always!
@AnthonysCustoms nice, and yeah, that version of the Justice League and particularly Superman was very intimidating when watching that episode as a kid. I was happy to see they brought him into the comics. Injustice Superman is alright, but Justice Lord Superman, I like better
Par from the classic superman look aswell as simple offshoots such as kingdom come, this look is definitely one of the best variations they have created.
I've never seen this Superman design until the figure announcement, but its probably my favorite now. Not a fan of the green Batman suit. I'll just see about getting the Superman secondhand later without the Batman
Honestly, it’s a good design for an alternate superman, but wouldn’t fit for the main one. I remember really looking the Justice lord costumes for Superman, Batman and martian manhunter.
If you can get your hands on it you should definitely check out the McFarlane Black Lightning figure, easily one of the best DC figures by mcfarlane toys, probably up there with Azrael Batman and the page punchers Black manta
1. Yeah, I’d say best look. But the episode of Justice League where that look comes from is incredible. Straight up kills Luthor, becomes a Father Knows Best dictator. Much prefer this Superman arc compared to he goes crazy and becomes a murderous villain. Cape is not asymmetrical. 2. Red. I really hate this look for Batman Beyond. Really want Superman, really don’t want Beyond tbh.
I agree those cardboards look silly when they don't match however imagine this: a Spider-Man wave where the cardboards inserts put together would match to form a NY cityscape. Or an Iron Man wave that the cardboards would form an armor garage or the inside of one of his workshops. Or a villains wave and the cardboards would form the lair of AIM or Hydra or even Arcade (that would be fun!) So yeah still not there but if we put the idea out there it could happen maybe..? Oh and the McFarlane cards I give away to anyone for free but as far as I remember Todd is a huge card collector so he puts them there as a personal gift and sort of a tradition I think... couldn't care less but I do understand why he does that and I appreciate it from his point of view.
As always, thanks for the review, Anthony! I like this showdown pair; I do love the black and white with red accent look on Superman but I prefer the red and black look for Batman Beyond. I also like the Red and Blue Supermans when he was split into two personalities, though I am told that was a widely disliked look by many. What did you think of those, Anthony?
This justice lord superman and terry mcginnis figures are from the batman beyond 2.0 comic titled justice lords beyond. Also yes the justice lord suit is one the best looks for superman. But its not my favorite, that goes to his recovery suit.
Red and black for sure. As for Superman, I hate this costumes colors, but I like the design, so meh, it’s whatever. I do like Supermans head a lot and wow those are some short legs… negative cake 😂
As much as I absolutely love the Justice Lords, I have to point out that the comic this two-pack is based on is terrible. Justice Lords 2.0 fell victim to being forced into the Injustice framework which was popular at the time (2014) even though the Lords predate the story of Injustice. The nuance in the Justice Lords was lost as was the unique world that the show left behind. What could have been instead a great story of redemption and rebirth was turned into Batman v Superman. P. S. The green in the suit comes from the Kryptonite that powers the suit.
Anthony, the face for the Superman is too wide. The jaw looks too bulky and out of proportion and throws the whole figure off. It was the reason I skipped on this release. IMO, except for warworld version and action comics version, Mcfarlane cannot get any Superman figures right. The proportions are always too bulky and weird. For a long time the company reused that awful bizzaro body again and again and wasted so many story arc designs for the sake of cheap releases. For me, the perfect superman proportion would be the upcoming 'smiling' Superman so let's see how that one is in hand. While on a higher price point, my grail Superman is still the Mafex release but hoping someday Mcfarlane gives a classic superman that actually looks decent Thanks for the review as always though!
i think those superman head sculpts they've been releasing are hideous, tha jaw line and base of the head is too thik. In my opinion they haven't released a single acceptable superman. I get they're going for an older look but i don't really like them.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA How the hell do you screw up a cape like that? What an over-rated company that is not even trying on this line. For pete sake give the license to Jada please. The only line they have been good at is their Warhammer one.
Lol. Keep defending the companies screwing their customers and you'll keep getting crappy products. Try being respectful to the consumer instead of defending your abusive corporate overlords.
McFarlane keeps bumping out numerous new Batman molds, but they can't make a new classic Supes, lol.
Lmao it's like McFarlane read this comment 😭🤣

im familiar with the superman.
And yes, I agree that costume is very cool. @@AnthonysCustoms
Justice Lord Superman is DEFINITELY one of his best looks of all time. Add to the fact that the Justice Lords concept is a VERY iconic part of the DCAU & DC in general... Then you get the picture. 🎉
To see the Justice Lord Batman done right today would be sick as hell.
Unfortunately WB and DC haven't been able to get anything right aside form their toys the last few years. Hopefully Gunn turns it around. @@MistyDusker

That Batman Beyond suit is the kryponite laced suit like someone mentioned already
Great review as always!
im familiar with the superman. thats how its my favorite version of him. didnt know the beyond suit was kryptonite though. thats cool
@AnthonysCustoms nice, and yeah, that version of the Justice League and particularly Superman was very intimidating when watching that episode as a kid. I was happy to see they brought him into the comics.
Injustice Superman is alright, but Justice Lord Superman, I like better
My favorite look for Superman was how he appeared in Superman #75 from 1993.
Lol
Par from the classic superman look aswell as simple offshoots such as kingdom come, this look is definitely one of the best variations they have created.
Just got it for $30 on Amazon
Ahoulsve waites till today i got it for $16
I hope all the money they're saving with this re use goes to giving their employees lessons on anatomy and engineering.
I really like the fact McFarlane is adding in the artwork as inserts rather than sticking the stands and collector cards to the great artwork.
Personally love the green suit Batman beyond minus the wings
I've never seen this Superman design until the figure announcement, but its probably my favorite now. Not a fan of the green Batman suit.
I'll just see about getting the Superman secondhand later without the Batman
Honestly, it’s a good design for an alternate superman, but wouldn’t fit for the main one. I remember really looking the Justice lord costumes for Superman, Batman and martian manhunter.

Both figures are in an unknown timeline of the future about whats going to happen?🤔
If you can get your hands on it you should definitely check out the McFarlane Black Lightning figure, easily one of the best DC figures by mcfarlane toys, probably up there with Azrael Batman and the page punchers Black manta

I hate that the cape isnt fitted around his shoulders. Thats so integral to my mental image of Justice Lords Superman.
1. Yeah, I’d say best look. But the episode of Justice League where that look comes from is incredible. Straight up kills Luthor, becomes a Father Knows Best dictator. Much prefer this Superman arc compared to he goes crazy and becomes a murderous villain. Cape is not asymmetrical.
2. Red. I really hate this look for Batman Beyond.
Really want Superman, really don’t want Beyond tbh.
no abcrunch or do they have a ball point joint

So yeah still not there but if we put the idea out there it could happen maybe..?

Can’t wait to see what you have to say about the price increase of the McFarlane DC Multiverse Monitor wave.
As always, thanks for the review, Anthony! I like this showdown pair; I do love the black and white with red accent look on Superman but I prefer the red and black look for Batman Beyond.

That Superman cake is a coffee table. 😆
This justice lord superman and terry mcginnis figures are from the batman beyond 2.0 comic titled justice lords beyond. Also yes the justice lord suit is one the best looks for superman. But its not my favorite, that goes to his recovery suit.
Red and black for sure. As for Superman, I hate this costumes colors, but I like the design, so meh, it’s whatever. I do like Supermans head a lot and wow those are some short legs… negative cake 😂
Woah these two figures look cool
I love this Supes, have him with my 1:12 collective Darkseid right now and they look awesome.
A figure that has trouble standing on its own is an automatic dealbreaker for me!
👍
ilove the superman suit but i was he wasnt so chunky.
8 on the cake scale 😂 👏🏼

P. S. The green in the suit comes from the Kryptonite that powers the suit.
Justice lord Superman’s hands are suppose to be black and what bothers me is the M is still there on his boots, I might get it to repaint Superman.
They sculpted Justice Lord Superman in the middle of cracking a walnut with his cheeks. 🤣
Yeah, supes looks very solid (that jawline is badass af)
Batman Beyond in green looks ... not good
im told its kryptonite so... guess its ok
One of these days Todd will give us a Batman Beyond with removable wings. Oh well another Terry for the collection is always cool.
pet peeve of mine when you take a sculpted cape and "unfold" it in your head, and it doesn't make sense.
Anthony, the face for the Superman is too wide. The jaw looks too bulky and out of proportion and throws the whole figure off. It was the reason I skipped on this release.

The extra wide jaw matches the extra wide body
Supes jawline looks too wide to me. Gives him a Superman the movie Jer-El vibe.
I really don't like how skinny this Batman is. He almost had no muscle and he's skinnier than most Spider-man figures
These sculpted capes are becoming stylized but like in bad way.
Just got this for 10$ at ross
i think those superman head sculpts they've been releasing are hideous, tha jaw line and base of the head is too thik. In my opinion they haven't released a single acceptable superman. I get they're going for an older look but i don't really like them.
I feel like McFarlane always manages to screw up Superman in some way. Weird face sculpt, disproportionate anatomy, etc… 😑
Looks like the big time let down Batman beyond to me…lol
I like the suit for Superman buy not the figure.
This should of been way better.
I can’t believe they are paying McFarland huge money to put out this garbage?
Who?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA How the hell do you screw up a cape like that? What an over-rated company that is not even trying on this line. For pete sake give the license to Jada please. The only line they have been good at is their Warhammer one.
Justice Lord Superman is my favorite Superman version. I like him more as a bad guy than a hero.
Ok, last day I come to Anthony Customs for a review, there are better ways to say negative things without making fun. be more respectful!
Lol. Keep defending the companies screwing their customers and you'll keep getting crappy products. Try being respectful to the consumer instead of defending your abusive corporate overlords.
My question of the day ; why does no one ever talk about how poorly articulated mcfarlane figures are?
...i do
I don't like MacFarlane figures. Hate that he went with that scale and the proportions of the figures are mostly terrible with few exceptions.
