Last week, I was spending some time at one of my local comic book stores when I came across a copy of Power Girl #23, guest starring one of my personal favorite DC characters: Zatanna. No, I'm not going to spoil any major plotlines or anything, and I'm not even going to review the issue as a whole (though it was a fun read). Instead, I'm zeroing in on one particular scene in the comic that got the ol' gears in my brain working. Without giving too much away, let's just say that we, as readers, learned that Zatanna apparently has her ringtone set to "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic" by The Police. After I finished my little chucklefest at that revelation, I started to wonder something. What would some of the OTHER heroes and villains of the DCU (or any comic universe for that matter) have as their ringtones?
Which brings us to this post. That's right, here's a list of what
*I* think would be great ringtones for some of comic's greatest (and not-so greatest). Check 'em out and while you're at it, get creative and add a few of your own in the comments section, trend #ComicBookRingtones on
Twitter, or over on my

In case you didn't know it, or simply forgot with all the insane events of recent weeks, tomorrow (Saturday, May 7th) is Free Comic Book Day. FCBD is a day in which everyone around the world can walk into a local comic book shop, check out the latest and greatest in the world of the graphic novel, and oh yeah ... pick up some free comics along the way. It's kind of a big deal, folks. If you're already a comic book fan, it's a way to show your support for the industry you love, and also a way to introduce some friends to the world of the four color media (that's a printing term, for those of you playing at home). And if you AREN'T a comic book fan, well FCBD is the perfect chance for you to pop into a shop and check out what you're missing out on. Think about it as a "risk-free trial offer". It's definitely worth checking out, and hey, it's not like you've got anything to lose except a few minutes of time.
