Bill Murray Played the Human Torch

Did you know that Bill Murray once played the Fantastic Four’s Human Torch? Well, you do now! In the 1970s Marvel Comics produced a series of radio dramas based on the Fantastic Four Comics, which are like the old time radio dramas that super nerds like myself really love.

Bill Murray, who is obviously a [...]

Oh noes! Iron Mans is a going to die!!!1

Yep, I’m late to the table with a post about the Avengers movie, but this one has been bugging me for awhile so I thought I’d take it to the interent, the most logical place to air grievances! Plus, now that everyone on the planet has [...]

Blider-Man: Thoughts on Marvel’s Black Spider-Man, by William B. West.

Blidey!

Hi, my name is Will West and I’d like to be your leader. Don’t worry, though; I just want to be the black one – it’s a separate, but equal thing. I’ve decided I’d like to become America’s Top Black Nerd, or Blerd if you will. As a result, it would make me [...]

MiniMate Super Battle

I’m not a super huge fan of the Mini-Mate figures from Diamond Select, but hot damn I do love a good toy based diorama. That’s a load of great superhero action right there.

Insane Star Wars Covers #3: Luke the Hero

I think that after watching Star Wars every single kid walks away wishing they were Luke Skywalker, clearly the most heroic character in the original Star Wars films. The way he busted out pseudo-Shakespiaran when they fought that 200 foot tall Darth Vader… classic. Just friggen classic.

Insane Star Wars Covers #2: Luke Swoons

I’m pleased to bring you another insane comic book cover from Marvel Comics take on the Star Wars universe. And man, this one is great just for the image of C-3PO carrying Luke like he is. It brought about several thoughts in my mind:

ROM: Space Knight Kicking Dire Wraith Ass

I’m a huge fan of the Marvel comics version of ROM: Space Knight. I’m sure that most of my five readers will be scratching their heads at the mention of the name (and because of head lice), so I’m hoping in the future to write up a post about him and his amazing comic [...]

Thor Getting His Hammer On

Man, even if you don’t like Thor that much you have to admit that this photo from the upcoming Thor movie is pretty kick ass. That hammer is damned close to the comic one, that I’m almost getting giddy over this film. You’d think it would be a power auger or a magical laptop, [...]

NAB: Emma Frost By Alisa Kiss (Fairly NSFW)

For today’s Nerd Approved Babes we present the cosplayer known as Alisa Kiss dressed up like the White Queen, Emma Frost, from the Marvel X-Men comics. Alisa Kiss is pretty famous in cosplaying circles, because she does one hell of a Cami from Street Fighter, but more importantly she has a softcore porn site where [...]
