Craft Club at my job the other day, here are a few of the things we made!


This picture frame is from a Quasar comic book- the word Quasar is something of an inside joke between my husband and I that means I Love You. You can go throw up rainbows now.


Here's a box a fellow co-worker made, The Juggernaut Box!


Stuff + Mod Podge + Comic books = FUN TIMES!

Golden Age Catwoman Style


I was talking to some friends about NYC Comic Con this year and everyone has decided to do Batman Villains so we can run around finding random Batmen to torment. Sounds rad!

Unbelievably, no one had picked Catwoman yet, so it's up to me, folks! But of course I want to do something a little different, and with my love of Golden Age comics and vintage styles, I was thinking about going in this direction!

For now, enjoy this collection of Golden Age Costumed Catwoman Alt Art and tell me if you have any good costume ideas!

Cosplay Craziness on Pinterest



Hey guys, a few weeks ago I told y'all that I made a Pinterest Board for Fangirl World, which is super rad. I just created a new board called Cosplay Craziness that I thought you might enjoy as well! I don't cosplay but I'm sure thinking about it lately, and the images I'm finding range from awesome to humorous to inspiring. Check it out on Pinterest. Here's a preview:

AvX #6, Infinite


 

Well, the Phoenix Force came. Iron Man's Phoenix killer suit, meant to prevent once X-Man becoming the Phoenix, accidentally split the energy up and now there are 5 Phoenixes. Oopsie! But Cyclops and crew are making the world great with all the new fiery psychic powers. I seriously can't wrap my head around why Cap and the puny humans are screwing with them so much! Random panels:




(Infinite) The only one who's on the same page as me seems to be Beast!

 

Quick beef: Cyclops creates a talking pile of moon dust that looks like Jean to talk to. (Lonely much?) Moon Jean mentions that Cyclops is using the powers logically while when she wielded it, her emotions got out of control. Yes, we get it, men are logical and capable of creating Utopia with the Phoenix force while us lil women reign destruction, what with our wacky hormones and being on the rag all the time. Hey you crazy feminist, stop reading so deep into it and playing the gender card! FINE. But think about it.



"Found expression through my emotions ... made them so huge there was no room for ...joy, grief, love."

Er, are joy, grief and love not emotions?

ANYWAY I like the idea of multiple Phoneixes. Want more Prof X!

Sunday

Bad Dads

Happy Father's Day! Here's a little list of the most dreadful dads in geek culture- so call up Pops and wish him a Happy Father's Day, at least you're not stuck with one of the abominable ancestors on this countdown!

5. Bowser


Bowser sure has a lot of kids and while at first glance it might not seem so bad (he's put them all up in castles at least!) really he's just using them for his own purposes- to foil that blasted Mario. (Oh, and uh, Luigi too I guess.) Every one of his kids is as rotten and crazy as he is, and they are nothing but cannon fodder to prevent Mario from reaching the Princess. 


4. Norman Osborn


Better known as the Green Goblin, Norman Osborn becomes a super villian to go after his son's best friend. Ouch, dad. Besides being neglectful and mean, he screws up Harry to the point that after his death, Harry takes on the Green Goblin persona, turning against his long time friend in a never ending quest to gain the approval Daddy never gave him.

  

3. Firelord Ozai


Another power hungry villian, Ozai kills his own father (not like he was father of the year either) and lets Wifey take the fall. Then he picks a fight with his son, Zuko, who begs for forgiveness and is rewarded with some fire to the face, leaving him scarred forever, physically and emotionally.




2. Darth Vader


Because his kids didn't know they were his kids, they made out with each other. If that's not bad enough, he blows up his daughter's home planet and cuts off his son's hand. Luke rather risk what looks like certain death than join Darth on the Dark Side in the most famous father-son scene of all time!


1. Magneto


Magneto is at the top of my list because no matter the universe or reboot, he's always a horrible father, basically making slaves out of his children, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver. His degrading attitude and thirst for power lead his children's mental breakdowns over and over again.


Indeed, his crappy daddy skills are basically to blame for the current situation going on in AvX, since Scarlet Witch depowered 90% of mutants because of the twisted lessons Magneto taught about mutant superiority.  He may play the good guy now, but Magneto is Fangirl World's #1 Bad Dad!
