You are a superhero. Now Firebox have your very own poster to prove it. These personalised posters begin by picking your super letter. If your name was “Superman” then you’d have a large red S on your poster. You know – for example. I’m not suggesting, for legal reasons, that Superman’s costume design has had […]

LEGO Cthulhu of blocky doom!
Hats off and souls out to Imagine’s rather fantastic LEGO creation. Imagine has broken the mortal boundaries of time and space, going beyond to channel the dark master and has built LEGO Cthulhu.

Superhero Week: Batman v Dark Knight statues
Geek shop powerhouse Things From Another World report that Batman is their hot collection this month. No surprises for guessing why.

Superhero Week: Batman’s Femme Fatale
Batman manages to attract the attention of an interesting collection of femme fatales. Is this because writers are often tempted to view Batman as the peak of male potential (successful, active, rich, community minded…) and pitch him against someone female? Artists Andrea Rhodes and Saul Ruiz have a collection of some Gotham’s troublesome women. A […]
Superhero Week: LEGO superheroes
Our second post in Superhero Week is to look at some LEGO heroes. There are some impressive LEGO builds out there but my favourite may well be Superman and Young Justice versus Brainiac in a battle around The Daily Planet building. There are easier ways to get started with superhero LEGO. The company has both […]
