Werepuppy's A Doll A Day Challenge 2020

My first thought was that he's an Ent... How tall is this character? Like a human or like a tree?

I think Space Ent would be a good way to describe Groot. When he's fully grown, he's tree sized, though as always with comics that can vary by panel. Let's say 'very tall' though possibly on the smaller size for an Ent. 

I am Groot. Groot is awesome, even Baby Groot.

Baby Groot was such a clever move on the film-makers parts. 

Someday I might catch up on some of these popular movies.
Maybe he is a cousin to ents?  

Like I just said to neon, lol, space ent is probably the best way to ex.plain it. 

He’s an alien race that look like and act like trees. The only words he can say in a language that we can understand is ‘I am Groot.’. Vin Diesel (who voices the character) gives those 3 words a remarkable range of meanings and emotions.

If you've seen clips of Vin Diesel's recording sessions, he always brings his script, which he has covered in notes to ex.plain what each 'I am Groot' should be able to convey. The guy does a fantastic job, is what I'm getting at.

237. H is for Harley Quinn



(Yes, I'll be posting a lot of figures - I found my little storage box of them)

Today is Harley Quinn! More infamously known as the Joker's girlfriend, Harley is an interesting character in her own right. Created for the animated series in the 1990s, Dr Harleen Quinzel was a respected psychiatrist who was looking to understand the motivations of the Joker. Unfortunately for her, she didn't realise just how good he was at manipulation... 

The Joker and Harley because one of the most destructive relationships in all of comics. It seems like - FINALLY - in the recent years she has shook him off, and set out on her own. This figure comes from the Amanda Connor's run on Harley's on title in the mid-2010s, where she got into roller derby. Which yeah, does fit her well.
