Thanks, Bangladesh!: Shameless Incredible Hulk Knock-Off Movie Trailer
Tuesday, August 10th, 2010TaaR CHeeRA EntertainmenT out of Bangladesh describes their HALKa PAGLA short film as a “parody.” Yet, I sense no sense of irony or tongue-in-cheekness amongst the hilariously-terrible CGI effects, production values, and acting.

Where Spandex Goes to Die: Superhero Nursing Home Sculpture
Monday, November 23rd, 2009Thanks to these life-like sculptures by contemporary artist Gilles Barbier, we know that no hero–not Superman, Captain America, nor Hulk–will survive the ravages of age. For a second there, I thought that the catatonic (dead?) Catwoman was faring worst of all. But then I saw Wonder Woman’s bosom. Holy southern migration, Batman.

Sunday, March 8th, 2009Well… to be more specific: custom toys featuring Homer Simpson as two Marvel superheroes and one supervillain. Toycutter found this seller on Ebay who created Homer Hulk, Homer Thing, and Homer Doc Ock. Made in Mexico, with “free shipping from Texas,” these scream “toy smuggling ring.” But who am I to complain about a little [...]
