Superheroes on the D&D alignment chart

February 4, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

I think this superhero and villain alignment chart is particularly good. It takes the old school Dungeons and Dragons alignment scale and uses heroes and villains to populate it. The rest is that old D&D geeks get a kick out of the retro chic and the newer native geeks get an easy way to see […]

X-Men Born This Way

June 8, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is a pretty funky song that the X-Men: First Class movie inspired. I’m told it’s a parody of a piece of music produced by a “Lady Gaga”. If true I have to wonder whether she’s a superhero too; has the name to match. I wonder what her powers might be? Kudos to Ryan from […]

RC Superhero with VTL

May 20, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I’ve flown a kite but never was bitten by the RC bug. It seemed like an expensive and awkward hobby. I live in Scotland in a city surrounded by hills. It would be a challenge to wait for good flying conditions and then a battle not to crash the expensive little helicopter model into the […]

One for the ladies – How to be a superhero in bed

April 19, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 14 Comments

I’m pretty sure this post may appeal to male geeks just as much as it does to fashionwise female geeks. I’ll count that as a win-win as we explore this superheroic range of PJs from Spencers Online and Marvel. Which is your favourite? She Hulk Spider-Girl Black Widow American Dream Emma Frost

Wolverine or two Batmen?

February 8, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Ah! Optical illusions are ace. Optical illusions that feature Wolverine are ace. Optical illusions that feature two Batmen are twice as ace. If the previous statements are true then how ace is this picture? Which do you see first? Wolverine or the two Batmen? Really? (via reddit.)

Golf Now – part of an anti superhero backlash?

January 31, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Hmm. Not sure what’s going on with American TV ads or advertising agencies but there seems to be a bit of a superhero blacklash going on. Just a few weeks ago we had DirecTV poking superheroic fun and now Evolution Bureau are doing something very similar for their client Golf Now. Does anyone with any […]
