Another Inexplicable Batman Back Tattoo – GWS Reader Ink

Friday, March 27th, 2009

GWS reader Lewis got a tattoo of the Batman symbol across his back a few weeks ago, and I’ve officially given up trying to understand the purpose of plastering a big, black trademark across your torso.  (See here, here, and here.) I mean, I get it… but I don’t.
Not that I don’t appreciate the wonderfully-batshit [...]

WonderCon 2009 Coverage

Friday, February 27th, 2009

Sorry I’ve been lax on the posting in this latter half of the week, blog-reader people, but I’m going to make it up to you (and how!) this weekend with a deluge of photos of cosplayers, their costumes, and other curiosities from WonderCon 2009 here in San Francisco.

Thursday, February 5th, 2009

Batman Symbol Tattoo Looks Better with Leather – GWS Reader Ink

Monday, January 5th, 2009

Now this is how it should always be when someone sends me a picture of their Batman symbol tattoo: with flirtatious adornment by a leather bustier thingie, a plaid mini-skirt, and stockings.

Hell, it might even make some of the Batman tattoo pics I get from sketchy shirtless dudes a bit more tolerable.  In terms of [...]

Geek Loot: Japan Does What Japan Does Best in This Book of Batman Manga

Thursday, January 1st, 2009

Way to conform to stereotypes, Japan. As soon as you get a hold of Batman, you stick him in some manga and have him battle giant insects, robots, dinosaurs, and villains like “Go-Go The Magician.”  (Cousin to the less-well-known “Ray-Ray The Pawn Shop Dealer.”)
I guess I should just count my lucky six-pointed Hebrew stars that [...]
