Superhero Week: Opinion poll of 1000 Brits sees Marvel thrash DC Comics

July 2, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

If you asked 1,000 members of the British public some superhero and comic book questions how would they do? We’re not asking them to get superhero trivia right; we’re asking non-geeks about their favourite superheroes, villains, gadgets and movies. This is exactly what the games team at Ladbrokes did. It’s PR fuel for them. It’s […]

Superheroes in noir posters

March 1, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Noir isn’t always to everyone’s tastes. It can be bleak although that can be part of the attraction. These posters from Marko Manev certainly don’t seem bleak. They’re carefully understated, they hint at huge scenes and power yet to be unleashed. These may be some of the most familar superheroes known to the web but […]

Who watches the watchmen aliens?

February 28, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

One of the most recent Gimmick Tees designs caught my attention. We’re in their usual mashup territory here, Space Invaders and The Watchmen. Who knows? Perhaps this little fellow will feature in the controversial Watchmen prequel?

Hello… uber geek!

July 25, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I think designs might need to get down on their knees and pay respect to Joseph Senior. This illustrator and artist has taken the familiar and humble Hello Kitty mascot and given it a superhero, a super villain, a Star Wars, a comic book – and uber geek make over! The pictures below are just […]

Before Watchmen: Pictures

February 1, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Many geeks will not be happy with DC’s decision to return to the Watchmen with a prequel. This includes Watchmen creator Alan Moore. However, DC is a business, if they don’t make money then we have no DC at all. Can DC ever hope to follow on from the Watchmen? They’ll try. Here’s a gathering […]

Real Rorschach mask

December 31, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Rorschach is the plucky and sanity challenged hero from Watchmen. In the movie they successfully re-created the simple but effective Rorschach look. Now one fan has managed not only to re-create the moving ink blot mask but has shared the how-to intrustions. The mask works by making use of thermochromic paint pigment and a clear […]

Artists like Portal Comic / Hernan Cebrera and Elsa Chan are treating us to some visually stunning “What if” scenarios.

What if Hellboy was Hellgirl?

Shall we find out?
