In addition to DC fan-favorites, like Brainiac and duo figures like ‘The Atom and Hawkman’, ‘Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy’ and ‘The Flash and Green Lantern’, The Brave and The Bold includes all-new Alter Ego figures. Alter Egos allow players to start the game with a hero in his or her secret identity–like Clark Kent, then at a critical moment change the figure into the hero in costume–Superman.
