Firestorm t-shirt (2009)
Today features a true gem of Firestorm merchandise. After finding several Justice League of America t-shirts that include Firestorm (click here and here), I was very surprised and excited to see this. I didn’t think anyone made one, but here is proof positive that you can own an officially-licensed Firestorm t-shirt! You can get one of […]
Justice League of America t-shirts featuring Firestorm
Since I posted my JLA t-shirt featuring Firestorm two weeks ago, I’ve come across several other shirts worth looking at. Today we’ll focus on the JLA-related ones, but tomorrow come back for a special t-shirt that I’m very excited about. Here is a nice shirt I just got featuring an unusual collection of characters: Red Tornado, Doctor Fate, […]
Secret Origins Advertisement – April 1986
Secret Origins was a fantastic series that started back in 1986. This particular ad appeared in comics that were cover-dated April 1986 and was cleverly dressed to look like the front page of the Daily Planet. Check out Firestorm in the bottom right-hand corner. He was featured early on in the Secret Origins series thanks to […]
Firestorm & Iron Man Costume Similarities
In addition to being a fan of Firestorm in the 1980’s, I was also a big fan of Iron Man. I used to play with my Super Powers Firestorm action figure side-by-side with my Secret Wars Iron Man figure. As many kids do, I would also draw pictures of my favorite superheroes. While drawing Firestorm […]
DC Direct Currents Advertisement – April 1978
Check out Firestorm appearing in a DC Direct Currents advertisement back in April 1978! Firestorm (volume I) was only on issue #2 at the time, and yet he was already considered enough of a player to appear in this ad. I wonder what would happen if I sent in a check today with this offer? […]

Welcome to the second installment of FIRESTORM FAN’s Nuclear News! Lots of Justice League related news this time around. Trinity #35 just hit the stands yesterday. As I’ve mentioned previously, Firestorm (Jason/Gehenna) has been featured regularly in the Trinity series. I can’t vouch for issue #35 (as I haven’t read it just yet), but Firestorm […]
Firestorm Baseball Cap (unofficial)
In the early 1990s, a friend had this baseball cap made for me. The logo and Firestorm’s appearance are based upon the elemental Firestorm from the John Ostrander & Tom Mandrake run. I don’t have too many opportunities to wear it, but I love the look of it. Even though it’s not an officially licensed […]
Justice League T-Shirt (2008)
Back to normal this week with only a couple postings. Today I’m displaying one of the few officially licensed t-shirts to include Firestorm. For the record, I don’t know of any official t-shirts that feature Firestorm all by himself. Today’s shirt came from Kohl’s in the summer of 2008. It’s a great late-Bronze Age shot […]
