Well everyone, the day has come. I am now secure enough with my feelings about showing this. I have been working on this for quite some time. I hope you all enjoy. Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you.....METROPOLIS MAYHEM v.2!!!! Here it is...... mma1 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mma3 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mma4 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mma5 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mma6 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Big Belly Burger gets invaded by DARKSEID, while BATZARRO flees from GREEN ARROW........ mma7 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mma8 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Centennial Park has been over run by Arkham Prisoners. One of MR. FREEZE'S goons hi-jacked the Arkham van, and released the inmates. The first thing they do when they breakout is break into Superman's memorial. They find a body inside. POISON IVY and her Flower goons chase citizens in the park. BEAST BOY is perched in the tree ready to attack BANE, RIDDLER, and MR. FREEZE. mma9 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmb1 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmb2 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Centennial Park also has a small pond. A pond which has become home to KILLER CROC!!! mmb3 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Towering over Centennial Park, The SPECTRE witnesses the rampant evil breaking out all over The Avenue of Tomorrow. mmb4 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Welcome to The First Metropolitan Bank. It looks as if TWO-FACE and his goons have decided to rob it! BATMAN, BATGIRL, and Damian Wayne ROBIN are on the scene. They got this! With the alarm going off, SUPERGIRL is attracted to the sound and heads for the bank. BRAINIAC, who just happened to land his ship, doesn't even know the world of hurt he entered. mmb5 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmb6 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmc1 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr What's happening on the street? Well, there's the high-jacking taking place, and the cops are all over it. We have citizens running from it, and some are running right into DARKSEID!! While others are being shooed by the MFD. Check out the old man gang!! mmb7 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmb8 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Here is a small Industrial Park. A few Ninjas have decided to break into the power station. But HEY!!! That was DEATHSTROKE'S idea. Who will win, and turn of Metropolis' power? The PENGUIN and his penguin goons have high-jacked the LEX-RAIL train. AQUAMAN fends off BLACK MANTA, and helps to keep the water tank safe. mmb9 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmc2 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmc4 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmc5 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmc6 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Here stands the Majestic WGBS building. Live breaking news on Channel 8! ***NEWS FLASH*** GORILLA GRODD has stormed WGBS and has taken a hostage. Reports from the street have shown us that GRODD has busted through our Roof sign. A piece fell to the ground, smashing a new sports car. The sports car was being used for one of our segments on the street. We will keep you informed when we have new reports. Stay tuned. ***NEWS FLASH*** SCARECROW decided he would try his new serum on an unwilling participant. Unfortunately for him, he didn't notice STARFIRE!!!! mmc8 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmc9 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmd1 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmd2 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr In the shadow of the WGBS building stands Metropolis' oldest Pizza Joint. OR IT USED TO!!!!!!!!!!! The ANTI-MONITOR lays waste to pizzaria. {also notice the new shoulders for Monty ;)} mmd4 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr So you found STEELWORKS, eh? The home and workplace of John Henry Irons, aka STEEL. Which is apparently being robbed by CAPTAIN COLD and his Cold goons. Looks like a yard worker has become a frozen victim. CAPTAIN COLD froze and blew open the front doors. One of the goons guards the truck, while the other steals Toastmasters ;) and other advanced weaponry. They even stole STEEL's hammer and television!! No worries though, NIGHTWING is on the scene, and he isn't alone. Tim Drake also known as ROBIN, watches over the situation, waiting to attack. MAN-BAT just wants to have a relaxing sleep, so he crawls up behind the STEELWORKS sign to nap. All the while CATWOMAN waits for unsuspecting people to use the ATM, so she can steal the cash! mmd5 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmd6 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmd7 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmd8 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmd9 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mme1 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mme3 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr S.T.A.R. LABS. (not much has changed with this MOC, just the placement of a few characters) SUPERMAN goes after GENERAL ZOD. HAWKMAN throws a Kryptonian soldier around, while Dr. Emil Hamilton watches. WONDER WOMAN lasso's up FAORA. mme4 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mme5 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mme6 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr LEX LUTHOR and his Goons are robbing S.T.A.R. LABS for its KRYPTONITE supply! One goon uses Lex's Power Armor suit to fight of CYBORG. While down on the street, The FLASH disposes of one goon into the dumpster, while he makes the next goon spill KRYPTONITE. The spilling of the KRYPTONITE takes down a Kryptonian soldier that was attacking LUTHOR. LEX calls for his Dr. goon to take a blood sample. This causes car crashes and traffic tie ups. This happens all the time on The Avenue of Tomorrow!! mme7 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mme8 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mme9 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Thirsty? Lets head over to The ACE O' CLUBS and get a pint! Hold up!!!!! Looks like The JOKER and his cronies are holding up the place. HARLEY QUINN and goons rob money from patrons leaving the bar. A Joker robot and Goon break into a second floor apartment for some more cash. The JOKER puts some poor sap into a canon. Citizens flee, and an old Groundskeeper comes swinging his broom to chase off The JOKER. This is the least of our worries. It looks as if DARKSEID has sent BRIMSTONE to wreak havoc. Even though he has a fear of fire, J'ONN J'ONNZ The MARTIAN MANHUNTER, leaps to action. mmf1 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmf2 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmf3 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmf4 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmf5 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmf6 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmf6a by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmf7 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mmf8 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr mme2 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Beside S.T.A.R.LABS stood an apartment building.

There will be an addition in the future, but I must plan it first. Comments welcomed Have a good one!!!!!

Hi guys. Im back with another Giant-Fig. This time around I tried building The Spectre. Here's what I ended up with...... spectre1 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr spectre2 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr spectre3 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Comments are Welcome.

Here is my second attempt at a DC Comics Giant. My first being the Anti-Monitor, ( http://www.eurobrick...opic=103071&hl= ) which looks way better in real life. Here is my second character, he is BRIMSTONE. (because I had a lot of orange pieces that I didn't know what to do with.) Brimstone was an artificially-created being generated from a "techno-seed" that Darkseid had launched into an experimental fusion chamber in New York City at the start of Operation: Humiliation. It broke out and started terrorizing the city, claiming to be an "avenging angel" out to rid the world of "false gods" and "graven images" (i.e., superheroes). http://img2.wikia.no...mstone_0001.jpg Here he is...... brim1 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr brim2 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr brim3 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Here he is in my Metropolis Mayhem v2 layout.(Which is still being finalized. Pics soon, I promise.) brim4 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Comments are welcomed. Until next time.........

Well I'm back with more...... 3 new Sinestro Corps members..... sc7 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr The whole team so far...... sc8 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr I changed John Stewarts pants to try to get closer to his comic book look..... sc9 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Guy Gardner in his Original Green Lantern Suit, minus the mask...... scten by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Two of the newest members to the GLC...... gl4 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr and finally the group shot.... gl5 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Enjoy!

Its been a while since I posted something. So today for you, I have a special project I've been working on. The SINESTRO Corps.... Here are 2 of the lesser known Members. By that, I'm saying I just put heads on bodies. sc1 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr My Anti-Monitor, when he was in the corps. sc2 by Richard Hicks, on Flickr Here is something I had just finished. I wanted to use yellow pieces only, so I had to be very creative.

Thats right! I'm back with another MOC. I just keep getting ideas, and just have to build them. My technique is getting better. I now have more buildings than roads. Oh well. Here is what I whipped up this time.......... A view from straight on... ac1 by rickfromkrypton, on Flickr A view from the left..... ac2 by rickfromkrypton, on Flickr A view from the right. I tried downspouts this time. Also added a small billboard... ac3 by rickfromkrypton, on Flickr From above...... ac4 by rickfromkrypton, on Flickr Dramatic shot..... ac5 by rickfromkrypton, on Flickr So there you have it. Now on to the next. Let me know what you think.

Well I'm back with another MOC! Please forgive my picture taking skills. Superman's Tomb has been put on hold. I made major changes, and I am waiting for a pick a brick order. I also started a new Top-Secret MOC today. Anyways here is what I also have been working on. I had a lot of red bricks, so I decided to put them to use. I present to you............ BIG BELLY BURGER BBB1 by rickfromkrypton, on Flickr DARKSEID's BOOM-TUBE landed him right into Big Belly Burger. BBB2 by rickfromkrypton, on Flickr Here is a close up of the front of the store. I haven't gotten around to furnishing this joint. BBB3 by rickfromkrypton, on Flickr One more picture from the front. BBB4 by rickfromkrypton, on Flickr When I get some roads, I'll take pictures of this attached to them. Then I'll take a picture of it with Metropolis Mayhem. But until then, let me know what you think.

Hey guys! Well, this is the second of two MOCs that I am currently working on. The other is being held off till I can get a road plate. So I wanted to build a city park for my diorama, and I couldn't think of a more popular attraction than Superman's Tomb. Superman's Tomb is located in Centennial Park. I plan on using 2 green plates for this. Here is what I have so far. Keep in mind that this will more than likely look real different when finished. Except for the Tomb itself. I like it. Yes, there is a reason for the hole in the front. wipst3 by rickfromkrypton, on Flickr wipst1 by rickfromkrypton, on Flickr wipst2 by rickfromkrypton, on Flickr I saw the Duplo Superman at the store and the idea struck me. I knew what I had to do with it. Let me know your thoughts. Stay tuned......

Someone NEW decided to stop by and hang out on my Diorama...... bz1 by brickhicks, on Flickr

For some reason I can't post a new topic in the trade forum so I'll push my luck here. I'm willing to trade these 2 factions and extra weapons for Superboy, Plastic Man and Lex Luthor in Battle Armor mini-figs. They can be loose for all I care. I just want those figs baaaaad. Let me know if we can work something out. trade1 by brickhicks, on Flickr trade2 by brickhicks, on Flickr

Its something I hadn't seen done with the Big Fig yet, so I thought I'd be the first. mm.15 by brickhicks, on Flickr DARKSEID's appearance causes an accident right on The Avenue of Tomorrow..... mm.16 by brickhicks, on Flickr The Joker has plans for this money. That goon in the blown out wall is one strong guy, don't ya think? mm.17 by brickhicks, on Flickr Supergirl doesn't like the fact that Brainiac is in town.... mm.18 by brickhicks, on Flickr Birds eye-view of the Bank area..... mm.19 by brickhicks, on Flickr A view down the Avenue. mm.20 by brickhicks, on Flickr And finally one last view from above. mm.21 by brickhicks, on Flickr So that's what I have so far. I'm working on the next part of the town. It will probably take a while, but I want it to be good for you guys. I really need and want the Superboy, Bizzaro, and Plastic Man mini-figs. Couldn't get them where I live. So If anyone wants to trade with me for a butt load of castle mini-figs let me know. Leave your comments on the MOC or just take a good look. Thanks for stopping by.

Hello; I'm back with another creation. I have doubles or older versions of characters from The Batman sets that I just had to put to use. So I give to you my version of Arkham Asylum. You'll notice in some of the pictures that I erased some parts. That is for your protection. Those images are for another time. Also, I apologize for the crude background. It was the only thing that wouldn't give off a glare. Shall we get started? Okay here we go.........

Went to Ottawa today. Every Target's shelf was empty, but no tags for items. ToysRus only had the Green Lantern set. The employees said to wait till February. So if you live in Ottawa let me know if you find the new sets. Thanks.

Thank-you for the comments. Pictures are now working.

Well after seeing everyones great DCComic MOCS for Batman and Superman on here, I've decided to stop hiding and show you guys what I've been doing. Being a Superman fan and collecting the comics since 1986 till today, I just had to build something from the Superman Universe. This is my First MOC so go easy on me..... I just finished this after 6 weeks of work on it. I've seen multiple Bat-caves, Arkham Asylums, a Daily Planet and many mor amazing MOCs. I searched the web for Lego STAR Labs and only seen one. Its a yellow interpretation of an old comic. My MOC is a mash up of older and newer versions of STAR Labs. So let me take you on a guided tour of my creation.......... This is the exterior shot. (Dang glare.) 1star by brickhicks, on Flickr Here are a couple more exterior's from different angles..... 2star by brickhicks, on Flickr 3star by brickhicks, on Flickr 4star by brickhicks, on Flickr 5star by brickhicks, on Flickr 6star by brickhicks, on Flickr This is a picture of the whole interior..... 7star by brickhicks, on Flickr The first floor is where chemicals and other liquids are stored. Its kinda crazy that the reception room is right behind that glass door. What were those builders thinking?...... 8star by brickhicks, on Flickr Second floor is a random lab.... (I borrowed some ideas for this) 9star by brickhicks, on Flickr The 3rd floor is the Kryptonite Research Lab. Includes Lead lined Kryptonite vault. Also the Kryptonite laser surgical chair. Looks like someone was working with BLUE KRYPTONITE. tenstar by brickhicks, on Flickr elevenstar by brickhicks, on Flickr I added some features from The NEW 52. Here is the RED ROOM. S.T.A.R. Labs keeps its Alien Technology locked away here. I even have a Father Box displayed. (yeah, there's some weird stuff in there.) twelvestar by brickhicks, on Flickr thirteenstar by brickhicks, on Flickr OH NO!!!!!! It looks like a battle has erupted outside of S.T.A.R. Labs...... fourteenstar by brickhicks, on Flickr Look its EMIL HAMILTON with some GREEN KRYPTONITE. seventeenstar by brickhicks, on Flickr LOIS LANE and JIMMY OLSEN! sixteenstar by brickhicks, on Flickr BATMAN & ROBIN (Damian) eighteenstar by brickhicks, on Flickr The FLASH!!! fifteenstar by brickhicks, on Flickr WONDER WOMAN and FAORA nineteenstar by brickhicks, on Flickr AQUAMAN vs. Lex Luthor twentystar by brickhicks, on Flickr SUPERMAN vs ZOD twentytwostar by brickhicks, on Flickr twentyonestar by brickhicks, on Flickr One last aerial shot twentythreestar by brickhicks, on Flickr So what do you guys think? This being my first MOC I've learned new building techniques and have been inspired to try more. So stay tuned......... Thanks for looking!

I know it's not likely, but I would love an alternate costume set or sets. Since I'm all about Superman this is what I would want. SUPERMAN SET Eradicator Steel Cyborg Superman Superboy Superman Red and Blue (Electric Supes) Black suit Superman Solar suit Superman Black and White Lantern Superman Battle Damage Superman Go ahead and make a list for other heroes if you want.

Wow this is great. I love all the pictures.

You should google images of castle doom. Then pick which one you might be able to build. If things don't go the way you had hoped, just put your own spin on it.

I bought this set so I could have another Zod. When this set was first announced, I thought there would be more to it. Oh well.

Tha forest scene is great! I love the pine tree trees.

I really like this. You must have put a lot of heart and soul into this. Its great and its inspiring.

Wow this is great. I love the brain.

That Mad Hatter minifig is great. Is he one of yours or did you buy it?

This thing is incredible!
