Iron Man Pumpkin Sets Its Repulsors to Stun
Wednesday, October 29th, 2008Scott Cummins (and no, that’s not his porn name) of PumpkinGutter.com makes a hell of a lot of remarkable carvings out of pumpkins.

He could be in Power Pack (the Walter Mondale of Marvel’s superhero teams) for [...]

Monday, September 8th, 2008There are a handful of surefire ways to pander to geek fantasies. One involves Kristen Bell in a slave Leia bikini. (Well played, Fanboys.)
Another involves an underdog character–underestimated because of his appearance and otherwise less-than-Alpha-Maleness–displaying heroic qualities, saving the day, finally getting noticed by the Girl, having the Girl find his expertise as [...]
