The Influence Of Athletics Spirit Of DC Justice League Superheroes

Hi Huneybees,

Flash! Batman! Superman! These are my childhood American Superheroes that I used to depend on to fight my fear with the dark during bedtime at night!

 

Twenty years on, these DC Justice League heroes may be sitting in my display closet as collectable figures but their importance didn't diminish as their present often brings back fond remembrances of my childhood playtime, helping me to better manage my work-life stress in adulthood.

 On the sunny morning of 30th August 2015, the force of DC Justice League gathered all DC Comics fans to Sentosa for a 5km fun run.  

 

More than 5000 runners turned up for the event donning the colour of their supported superheroes from the core line-up of the race - Superman (Blue), Batman (Grey), Wonder Woman (Yellow), Green Lantern (Green) or Flash (Red) - injecting additional favor to the funfare!

With an average finisher nett time of 31 mins 10 secs, it was heartening to learn that fans of DC Justice League are leading a healthy lifestyle in the athletics spirit of these Superheroes!

Let's look forward to more activities from DC Justice League on top of this successful event!

I Can Travel Around Singapore With My Favourite Superheroes

Hi Huneybees,

WAH!!!!! The super adorable Justice League heros and villian can now travel around Singapore with me as EZ-Link Pte Ltd launches 10 limited edition ‘Special Justice League’ ez-link cards. This card series is available exclusively for ez-link cardholders whose cards are expiring in 2014, and is part of EZ-Link’s ‘Journey with EZ-Link’ Giveaway Campaign!

10 adorable, vivid and exquisite designs of the ‘Special Justice League’ thematic card series will be rolled out progressively at all TransitLink Ticket Office located island-wide till 5 October 2014, and two of the designs will also be available for exchange at the ‘Journey with EZ-Link’ roadshows from tomorrow, 28 July to 3 August, at Ang Mo Kio, Boon Lay, Hougang, Jurong East and Tampines bus interchanges as well as Dhoby Ghaut MRT, from 11am – 9pm.

My favourite has got to be the Wonder Woman one. She stands for female power and she's my forever hero! For couples, I guess you can get the Batgirl and Batman or the Supergirl and Superman as a couple set. Wouldn't it be nice for once you don't have to stick those EZ-Link stickers again?!

Eligible cardholders will have the $3 deducted from the remaining monies in their expiring ez-link cards, after which balance monies will be transferred to the new card, which does not carry any stored value. Besides the Special Justice League ez-link cards, holders of cards expiring in 2014 can also get the ‘Colour Your Journey’ ez-link cards for free at any TransitLink Ticket Office and at the roadshows from 28 July to 3 August 2014.

EZ-Reload (Auto Top-Up) customers with cards expiring in 2014 are advised not to exchange for the ‘Special Justice League’ ez-link cards as EZ-Link will be sending free cards to their mailing addresses directly before the expiry dates. PAssion ez-link cards and bank co-brand credit or debit cards customers are also advised not to exchange for these cards but follow instructions from the respective banks and issuing organisations.

EZ-Link will provide details and updates on stock availability of the various designs on its social media platforms including Facebook (www.facebook.com/myezlink), Instagram (www.instagram.com/ezlinksg) and Twitter (www.twitter.com/ezlinksg).

Hi Huneybees,

As The Dark Knight - Batman turns 75, not only has SingPost released the limited edition DC Justice League and Batman 75th Anniversary MyStamp collection, Singapore Philatelic Museum has also recently launched the first and only DC Comics Super Heroes Exhibition in Asia.

Minister Lawrence Wong was present at the opening and the first to grace the exhibition, as he was brought around by "Poison Ivy" . It showcases stamps from Singapore Philatelic Museum’s permanent collection, Singapore Post MyStamps and the stamp artworks, as well as rare original comic art pages and collectibles on loan from collectors.

So, let's head on over to the exhibition!

The VIPs were brought on a tour by Poison Ivy as interesting stamp and toy collections were showcased and explained...

In the exhibition, Batman's friends - the heroes of the Justice League of America were each introduced with sections dedicated to each of them. Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman all came to life and comic fans will definitely be drooling at the amount of collectibles in here!

It's interesting to find how the heroes were first drawn and how they evolved through the years, not only do they have a more stylish look, their very own logos have also evolved!

Grabbed a shot with the superheroes!

My personal has to be the Wonder Woman. She embodies the female power and is definitely not weaker than the boys. Go Girl Power!

During the tour around the exhibition, I also met the illustrator - Soefara Jafney Jaafar, who drew this vintage looking Wonder Woman. She wanted to capture her in its very first impression and I must say I love the strut Wonder Woman has! So much strength and sexiness at the same time!

Of course there's even more for you to see and experience, you have to be down at Singapore Philatelic Museum to see it all! Don't forget to walk and look around for signs to scan the QR Code with the app - The League Against Evil. Through Augmented Reality, you can actually take photos with the superheroes!

And whilst there, don't forget to get yourselves the SingPost DC Justice League & Batman 75th Anniversary MyStamp Collection. You can even stand a chance to win exclusive Lego Miniland Scale Figurines!

So, hop on over to the Singapore Philatelic Museum on Sundays for a DC Comic experience!
