DP09-M03 The Eaglemoss Robotman (DC109)

.....In the previous post I detailed the sources of the appropriated illustrations used for the magazine accompanying the Elasti-Girl figurine issued from Eaglemoss Collections earlier this year. Since the credits for the magazine accompanying the Robotman figurine are identical, everything from the first two paragraphs in that post are also applicable here except the character, issue number (#109) and the date I could obtain a copy stateside (July 11th, 2012). There should now be a guide at the bottom of this blog explaining the period numbers I use to distinguish between the series cited in the sources (as well as the post titles).

.....As in the previous post, each citation begins with the page of the Eaglemoss magazine followed by the title, issue number, cover date (or shipping date for trades),  page and panel (if applicable) of the illustration's original appearance.

Page 15: (scientists cloning Lex Luthor) [From ACTION COMICS #678 (06/92)?]
Page 16: Preview of issue #110 of the Eaglemoss series.

.....Obviously, I am less concerned with nailing down the sources of the non-DP characters from unrelated story lines alluded to on pages 14 and 15. They are only used by the publisher to compare the spotlighted character in each issue to what they consider others in similar situations.

.....Soon, probably next week, I should wrap this up with the Negative Man issue and get back to picking apart older stories.
