X-Men: Apocalypse official trailer
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
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
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.

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
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?
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 […]
