July 4, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

How many different actors have played Superman? Have there been more Wonder Woman actresses than Hulk actors? Some of the answers might surprise you. I certainly found more than a few interesting discoveries in this ‘many faces’ infographic. Let us know what you think in the comments below or visit a random superhero posted with […]

X-Men: Apocalypse official trailer

March 17, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

We’ve not been kept wanting for sneak peaks at Bryan Singer’s X-Men: Apocalypse and, to be honest, I thought we’d pretty much finished with the full length official trailer releases. I was wrong. The latest, official and two-and-half minutes fat, really spells out what’s going on. The god-like Apocalypse is on the way and the […]

Be an educated geek: Storm review

October 11, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s been out for years but until recently I hadn’t heard of Tim Minchin’s Storm. How come? I’ve seen Minchin on telly. Why do I think this is so bad? I’ll let the free YouTube version of this spoken-song/poem speak for me in a bit. But first; a quick introduction to Tim Minchin as it […]

Superhero Week: Punk Storm and Iceman cosplay

July 6, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Punk Storm cosplays are rare enough… but Iceman; he’s super rare. Why? It’s very hard to do that chill frozen look? I think cosplayer Flashfetch33 has nailed it, though. I can’t imagine how long this makeup took. The photographer is Adventure Tom who submitted the picture to Reddit himself. Today’s the last day in Superhero […]

Punk Storm cosplay

May 8, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Many years ago the X-Men’s storm went through a punk phase. She had a mohawk and all the leather look. I think Kurosune has captured the style well. Not sure how close I’d like to get to this spiky storm! Picture by Jamais Vu and costume by Kick Custom Design.

It’s nearly here and 20th Century Fox have released what might be the final batch of promo material for X-Men: Days of Future Past. There’s 23 of these character art portraits and they show a mix of the main characters of the present and future as well as some Sentinel forms. Can you name all […]

The X-Scouts: Sailor Moon meets X-Men

February 3, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood 3 Comments

Robby Cook is at it again with a fantastic mashup series. This time he’s sharing Sailor Moon and X-Men illustrations over on his Facebook page. If you’re wondering how we get from “Sailor Moon” to “Sailor Scout” then the latter comes from DiC’s dub of the anime. That’s an adaptation for “Sailor Senshi” where senshi […]

Disney characters turned into DC and Marvel superheroes

September 21, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

How would Disney’s warrior princess Merida do as Batwoman? What about Jessica Rabbit as Poison Ivy? Artist Aegis Kitty can show us with this clever series. In addition to a busy Tumblr, Aegis also maintains a deviant art profile which is ideal if you would like to buy a commission.

Superhero Week: Who is the most famous black superhero?

July 4, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood 3 Comments

Are there enough black superheroes in Marvel, DC Comics, Dark Horse or any other catalogue? Sometimes it’s easier to name green or red (Hulk, Vision, Martian Manhunter, etc) heroes than it is to name a black one. That said, the comic industry has been updating itself and it is less unusual to have a black […]
