Ok, I am not going to be on Dr. Phil, but I probably need to be. I am taking some time off from work (sort of) and thought that I would go through my . . . ahem . . . my four year old son Will’s superhero figures.

Yes, we all have our little vices that border on compulsive sinful habits. Mine, besides my obsession with U2, is superheros. Specifically the Justice League. I love heroes. Of course, I follow the party line and elect Superman as my favorite, but Batman comes a close second, along with Vigilante, and The Question (both DC Comics heroes). I like Marvel as well, but they just don’t have the grandeur of DC . . . sorry, but it is true.

Here is a representative collection of pictures that demonstrate why I should be on Dr. Phil. Time would escape us if I were to show you my super hero movie collection. Ironically, I don’t have any many comic books.

You can click on each for the larger version to check them out!

After you have checked them out, I ask you . . . What compulsive, odd obsession do you have?

This is my DC collection of Justice League from the cartoon. There are two watch towers on the table. To the left are the superheros. To the right are the villains. Back left: superheros on motorcycles.

Top: My Justice League collection of 10″ figures as well as a few 2″. (Those on the table are 4″)

Here is a close of of some of the heroes. Vigilante is the one with the cowboy hat in the blue.

Here are the villains. Gorilla Grodd, Doomsday, Copperhead, Joker, Solomon Grundy (whom I dressed up as for Will’s birthday last year—scare the jeepers out of Gavin my nephew), some of the Justice Lords, and Bazzaro, just to name a few.

Close up of the larger figures. Far right is the Justice Lord Superman (this is an evil Superman from an alternate dimension—kind of a middle knowledge, possible world Superman, for those of you who want to keep this theological!)

Toward the back is my collection of Batplanes and Batmobiles. You can see the “Tumbler” from Batman Returns in the back. The 6″ figures on the ground are awesome. You can see Superdog and friends on the top right. Finally, there is a really fun game that I play with the kids where you guess which Justice League figure the other has chosen.

Finally, I tried to get most of my Marvel figures some representation. My favorite is the Silver Surfer on the far right.

So, what is your fancy? Why might you appear on Dr. Phil?
