1) Recently I’ve been seeing alot of classic comics which have been amalgamated with Marvel or DC characters. As it turns out they have all come from artist Ryan Dunlavey who has done quite a bit of work with Wizard and Toyfare magazines. I absolutely love the clever Kravenball piece above, however you can check out some more strips at Ryan’s blog here, including a brilliant X-Men/Peanuts strip and the He-Man/Garfield combo: Cringerfield. Solid gold.

2) Speaking of comic crossovers, MadAtoms, has posted an equally genius Mad Men/X-Men parody. I can’t wait to see part 2! Here’s hoping for a Harry/Beast crossover in part 2. Too obvious? Then how about a Magneto/Duck Phillips combo!

3) “Take this sucker to the dumpski! Cuz’ he’s been listenin’ to a Noam Chomsky.” Goooooo Joe! Conservative Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue! I could listen to 80’s cartoons characters debate abortion rights all evening, but user Geofferyg only gives you 2 minutes worth of comedy gold in the above video. Lucky for us he also has posted The Muppet Babies Discussing our Civil Liberties, and Lack of Social Awareness Megaman. Someone please give this man a prize.

4) Youtube has a really cool ad online right now for the Spanish sustainable energy company, Acciona. I highly recommend check the video out here. After watching the video, you can read more about it on Techcrunch.

5) and finally ……. Dinosaur Condoms.

He-Man wears: Jacket - Dior Homme, Jeans - April 77, Shoes - Pierre Hardy

1) Hipsters of the Universe – Well, at least He-Man’s finally got style. It’s a much better outfit than what Prince Adam used to cobble together. The above pic is from an absolutely incredible project by Adrian Reimann. Adrian has taken a bunch of classic Masters of the Universe characters and redesigned them wearing hipster clothing. Imagine Skeletor at a Justice concert or She-Ra shopping at H&M!

You can check all of Adrian’s redesigns over at Behance, complete with a clothing breakdown on each character. Personally I’m partial to Stratos sporting the American Apparel shirt and Teela looking like she’s straight out of a Zara display window; that said, the project as a whole may be my favourite redesign project ever.

Props to the always awesome Super Punch for the great link.

2) You may have seen Doctor Doom, hitting the stand-up circuit in this previous post; he’s not giving up the dream yet! You can check out the good doctor channeling Gallagher here. Make sure to wear a poncho.

3) While I’m on the subject of not giving up the dream, check out these 36 totally awesome skateboarders playing human Tetris, while skateboarding down a hill in San Francisco, at night with neon lights. If I could shake every one of their skateboardy hands, I certainly would.

4) Merlotte’s the Sitcom:

I really like True Blood, but I have a feeling “At Merlotte’s” would be a great spin-off. Think Joey with vampires and you have a guaranteed Emmy. (via io9)

5) The final link blew my mind into a thousand pieces this afternoon. What do you get when you take Patrick Stewart, give him a Shakespearean monologue and let him loose on Sesame Street? THIS AMAZING VIDEO!

6) Oh and as a bonus, here is a followup to my last post about G.I. Joe. I forgot to include this incredible 60’s style GIJoe piece, however since then the artist has also created a great Cobra version! I think both of these pieces are really slick.

You can check out more from the artist, Dave Perillo (aka Montygog), here.

1) Ridiculously cute Master of the Universe (He-Man) art can be found at Stephane Imbert’s Deviant Art site here. All of your favourite characters are there, including Chibi-Roboto, Chibi-Stinkor and Chibi-Snout Spout!

2) Who said super villains can’t be funny? Dr. Doom has recently taken up standup comedy. Some people should just stick to their day jobs… such as time travel, dictatorships and global domination.

3) Fancy Fast Food appears to be a new site that takes fast food, deconstructs it and creates gourmet meals with the pieces. You can check out their edible monstrosities at Fancyfastfood.com. I am intrigued and terrified, luckily recipes are included if I ever get too curious.

4) Any geek worth their weight in geek-trivia will tell you that the X-Men are more of a soap opera than anything else. Essentially, X-Men has always been like Days of Our Lives or General Hospital, but with super powers and the occasional time traveler. How convoluted are their relationships? Who has slept with whom? I really couldn’t tell you!

Luckily someone with a lot of time on their hand has drawn us a map. Check out the X-Men Universe Relationship Map here.

5) I love sneakers. I used to love Dungeons & Dragons. A design your own Dungeon & Dragons sneaker contest?? This is definitely no peanut butter & chocolate pairing…….

6) This is special …..

The Greatest Fan Film of All Time

I don’t want to say too much, but clear your night. The above video is a flash animation that features everyone from the Turtles to the Justice League to the X-Men to the Power Rangers. It is also 45 minutes long and well worth the time!
