YouTubeGeek Loot: Ask the Internets for Nurse Joker Custom Figures and Ye Shall Receive
Thursday, December 18th, 2008You know I’m not one to repost items that have already been through more grubby, little blogger-hands than pictures of Kristen Bell in a Slave Leia bikini. But this is a pretty special piece, and I’ve managed to unearth a key detail that you won’t find elsewhere…
Intrigued, yet? ‘Cause they don’t make teasers any more [...]
Geek Loot: Meet Batman’s New Sidekick, Wonder Pig
Thursday, December 11th, 2008No, this isn’t part of a line of toys cross-promoting a ridiculous new storyline in the Batman comics. Though barnyard animals would provide a welcome reprieve from DC Comics’ nearly-indecipherable storytelling of late.
Not a good sign when I have to visit Wikipedia to explain the comic book I just read. My occasional spasms of mental [...]
Want to Create a Custom Two Face Minifig? Set Half of a LEGO Figure on Fire
Monday, December 1st, 2008Flickr user chaosfish1 customarily puts a lot of care and precision into his custom LEGO minifigs. But to create this creepy Two Face LEGO minifig inspired by The Dark Knight, he took a more… blunt approach:

Very authentic. Just like in the [...]
These Batman Tattoos Are Just Like Mine, Except Good - GWS Reader Ink
Monday, December 1st, 2008Listen, Angie. Yes, I have but one, somewhat-pathetic Batman tattoo on my hip. And, yes, you’ve got a rather sharp-looking Batman (or Batgirl) tattoo on each hip. But it’s not like it’s a competition, ok?
Angie rubs her supposedly-superior level of Batman fan-ism in my face:
I have been a huge Batman fan since I was 2. [...]
Custom-Made Batman Transformer Hates Disney-Themed Toys Almost as Much as I Do
Monday, November 17th, 2008Of course I was disheartened by a couple of the painfully-misguided reactions to last week’s Mickey Mouse Transformer atrocity. (FYI, if you ever find yourself describing a piece covered on this blog as “cute”… something has gone terribly awry. Please adjust your settings.)
But no adversity shall divert me from my mission, which is–first–to judge you. [...]
Finally, A Batman Whose Ass I Could Kick - Geeky Cake of the Week
Tuesday, November 11th, 2008Finally, someone has recognized that the gruff, masculine, formidable, and not-at-all-dorky vision for Batman is all played out.
I can now present to you the kind of Batman to which an average dude like me can actually relate: spindly-armed, near-sighted, and big-nosed. And is that an unnaturally-narrow, yet oblong-shaped head?
Yeah, it’s almost like this guy and [...]
