Diesel Introduces Underwear That’s Fun to Wear: DC Comics Undies

Conner Flynn — Sun, 04 Dec 2011 19:00:56 +0000

Comic books are cool. I love Batman, The Flash and all the rest, but personally I draw the line at Superhero undies. But if you want a case of comic book crotch, you’ll be happy to know that Diesel has unveiled a line of superhero themed boxer briefs.

These boxers are all based on DC Comics characters. You can get Batman, Green Lantern and The Flash themed undies, as well as The Joker – but he’s not a superhero, so what is he doing in your underwear? They won’t give you super-powers, they will just make you feel like they do. Unless, that is, you consider light or temperature-sensitive prints that only show up under your own body heat, or designs that reveal themselves after time to be super-powers.

The Flash version is probably the coolest, since you don’t want those tacky Joker colors on your junk and also probably don’t want a Batsignal tramp stamp behind you. You can check them all out here. It looks like they will cost you $34(USD) a pair and some shameful looks from your girlfriend. Girlfriend. That’s funny.

Reminisce the Minimalist Way With Brandon Schaefer’S Movie Posters

Lambert Varias — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 13:28:16 +0000

I”m sure that some of you would rather look at the actual posters of these geeky movies, but for me 25-year old Brandon Schaefer’s style actually calls out to geeks in that the things his art withholds are known only to those who have actually watched the movies they represent. Here are some of his posters:

I never saw The Wizard, so I obviously I don’t get the exact reference, but I like it nonetheless. The one for The Rocketeer is awesome, but actually when I’m reminded of that movie the first that comes to my mind is brown leather .

The Rocketeer and Dark Knight posters are available as prints at inPRNT along with more posters for other classics like Back to the Future, Planet of the Apes, etc. Prices vary depending on the size of the print.

Unfortunately the Fright Night and Wizard posters don’t have print versions as of now; but you can look at bigger versions of those and more posters at Brandon’s website and on his Flickr page.

Batman Raps About the Plot Holes in the Dark Knight

No, it’s not Christian Bale rapping, thank god. It’s the work of the satirical and parodistic folks at the Key of Awesome, and they do have valid questions. Plus the characters’ voices were spot on.

Still, some of you may be tempted to ask: Plot holes? What plot holes? Cue keyboards and drums:

Okay so the second half of the song degraded into silly jokes about the movie, but seriously, how did the Joker set up his elaborate schemes? And why the hell would anyone want to be the henchman of someone like that? Care to rap about that?

Joker Poker Set Will Make Any Batman Fan Smile

Lambert Varias — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 11:30:48 +0000

Inject a dose of madness to your poker nights with the limited edition Joker poker set. Everything that you’ll find in a standard poker set is here, except that almost everything’s been defaced Joker-style, including the aluminum carrying case.

Killjoys may point out that you can have your own “Joker poker set” for free; just doodle on a set of cards and a case Joker-style (it surely seems easy enough). But can you also draw 54 Joker cards and vandalize 100 poker chips?

Actually I think the chips are too gimmicky already. The deck of Jokers however is kinda awesome, specially since its a replica of Joker’s cards in Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight. That alone makes this a collector’s item. There are only 3,000 sets available, so if you’re a Batman or a Joker fan I suggest you get one right now. The Joker poker set is available at Amazon for $88 (USD). And sorry I wasn’t able to use any Joker quote.

Bundles of Joy: Geeky Amigurumi on Etsy

Lambert Varias — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 12:15:31 +0000

Crochet connoisseur Rin aka deadcraft aka oddgumi makes wonderful dolls of personalities both fictional and real, as long as they’re awesome. I am confident that a Barney Stinson doll is in the works. Let’s look at some her creations:

Now that’s something you don’t see everyday. Jamie looks kinda creepy though. Adam’s spot on, but I still like Lolcat Adam better. You can get the myth busting dolls for $46 (USD) at Rin’s Etsy shop.

Forget what I said about Jamie. That is creepy. Yet still awesome. Should you want to scare the hell out of anyone, you can buy the Heath Ledger Joker doll for $24, also at Rin’s Etsy shop.

“War has changed. War has become routine. And for some reason I know nothing about what’s going on and always have to be informed by Otacon and everyone else around me.” So says Old Snake, who for some reason seems to be carrying sausages around his neck. Unfortunately, the Snake doll is not currently on Rin’s Etsy shop, but I’m pretty sure she won’t turn you down if you ask her to make you one.

Check out Rin’s website, Flickr page and Etsy shop for more dolls.

Custom Xbox 360 Speaks for Itself

Alisha K. — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 12:05:53 +0000

Some folks, when they make something as great looking as this custom Xbox 360 console, they give you the skinny. The rundown, if you will. A list of specs. A retelling of the effort, the hours that went into their craftsmanship. Not this guy. Nope. deviantARTist EvilDan is ready to let this one speak for itself.

The purple and green color scheme is nice, and the spikes are a great touch, but the killer thing here is that screen. And look! Even the avatar matches the console. That’s attention to detail there.

EvilDan has a number of custom items on his deviantART page, but this one is certainly the most eye-catching. If only there was any more information about it!
