Description:

The September 2014 Fandom in a Bag swap is the DC Universe.

Step 1: Please list in the comments your favorite characters, series, comics, movies, baddies, shows, moments, or any other preference you may have.

Step 2: After partners are assigned, check to see what your partner likes. You can follow-up with a message if you need to know more. Then scrounge up, buy, and/or create items that fit in a bag. Your bag must contain at least 7 different items although more is certainly encouraged (PLEASE try to make it look full).

Some ideas of themed items: stickers, ATCs, postcards, toys/action figures, comics, note cards, pins/buttons, magnets, jewelry, trading cards, charms, ornaments, books, bookmarks, address labels, postcards, plushies/stuffies, promo stills/autograph cards, fainfic, zines, etc.

More specific ideas: invitation to Wayne Industries fundraiser, Justice League of America membership card, Superman Cape, invisible jet (every bag should come with an invisible jet!), comics, etc.

Be sure to check your partner's profile so you don't send anything he or she might be allergic to.

Step 3: Put the items in a ziplock-type bag. Size: 1 gallon (measures AT LEAST 10 inches by 11 inches or 28cm by 26.5 cm). You can decorate the bag or incorporate the bag into something (mount it or sew something around it). If you want to make or buy a bag instead of using a ziplock plastic one, that's fine as well, but it should be at least a gallon in size. All items you gather or create should fit into the bag (if a couple are too big, that's fine).

Assemble your bags during the month of September and please send by the deadline (September 30).

Group rating rules apply. NO FLAKING ALLOWED! Flakers will be sent to Arkham Asylum and never released.

Batman is my favorite superhero ever, hands-down. I grew up with the movies, tv show, and cartoon show. And I adore Robin(s)/Nightwing in all forms. I do rather love Harley as well. And the three recent Batman movies have special places in my heart; I adore them. Otherwise, I'm a Marvel girl, so I don't have a lot of exposure to DC. I would like anything that helps me learn the basics of what I need to know to be a DC fan--explanations of different universes/timelines or character bios (maybe an ATC of each of your favorite characters with a bio on the back? or a minizine?). Actual comics are always appreciated. I want to find out what you know and love about the DC universe! I have seen most of the JLA cartoon show and practically inhaled Young Justice on Netflix a few months ago (during which I fell in love with Nightwing even more and kind of developed a crush on Red Arrow). I've seen the Superman movies, though not the most recent; Superman has never really been my bag. I need more angst and emotion. Oh, angsty!Batman, how I love you... But, yeah, comic/series/movie/fanfic recs of all kinds appreciated!! Help expose me to the DC Universe! Also, I would LOVE a Robin LEGO minifigure and any other DC Universe LEGO sets/stuff.

I love the batman symbol... I have a few tshirts and I'm kinda known and made fun of for it. (I take the jokes because I love my shirt!) I'm not a big superman kinda girl. I also have a special place in my heart for the dark knight series! I used to work on some of the trucks that were in the last movie and then I got to see the ones that were actually in the movie.
