Marvel Comics Introduces New Scruffy, Leather-Harnessed “Hercules”
“Randy, why do you like comic book super-heroes so much?”
“Umm, I’m not really sure. Kinda hard to explain. I just kinda do :)”
Marvel Comics tweeted out this image of the new, improved “Hercules” – now a scruffy, leather-harnessed, daddy kind of guy.
Yeah, I don’t know why I like this stuff… 🙂
Artist FAB Brings The Sexy To Your Favorite Super Heroes
Celebrated artist Fab has released a series of comic book super heroes showing their sexy sides.
I’ve always thought Aquaman could loosen up a bit.
Here’s a couple, but you’ll find lots more at Pride.com.
First Look At CBS’ Supergirl
As production begins on the upcoming CBS pilot for Supergirl (exec produced by Greg Berlanti), we get our first look at what the Girl Of Steel will look like in costume.
See the pic above of Melissa Benoist (GLEE, Whiplash) as “Kara Danvers/Kara Zor-el” in her costume designed by 3-time Oscar winner Colleen Atwood, who also designed the costumes for current DC Comics TV series Arrow and The Flash.
Looking to land in the CBS schedule for 2015/2016 season, the show will follow Kara as she comes to Earth as a 24 year old and learns to become the super-hero she’s meant to be.
In addition to Benoist, the cast includes Calista Flockhart (Ally McBeal, Brothers & Sisters), who will play Kara’s tough boss, Cat Grant; plus, Broadway favorite Laura Benanti in a major recurring role as Kara’s birth mother, “Alura.”
Of course, for the serious fans, you’ve got to love this bit of casting news: Helen Slater, who starred in the 1984 “Supergirl” feature, and Superman vet Dean Cain (Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman) have been announced for future episodes but the roles have been kept under wraps.
Looking forward to it!
Squeeee!!!
GOTHAM begins tonight on Fox TV
Tonight on Fox TV network, the newest imagining of the Batman saga begins with GOTHAM.
With (the future police commissioner) James Gordon as a focus, watch as the childhood stories of Batman, Catwoman, the Penguin, the Joker and more unfold.
Advance reviews have been very strong. I was a huge fan of SMALLVILLE and am enjoying ARROW, so I’ll definitely be checking this out tonight.
Trailer below:
Comic book heroes and villains – their private sides
“Heroes/Villains” is the sexy, silly, and awesome photography series from Atlanta artist Philip Bonneau, who describes it on his website as a collection of images “based around adults reconnecting with their childhood and remembering what it was like to pretend.”
Featuring some shirtless, half-naked heroes and villains from the comic book world, Bonneau shows us some rarely seen sides of some of our favorites. Here are just a few of my favorites (heroes all, of course). Make sure you check out more on Gay.net, and head over to Philip’s website.
Batbear and Robin may be my favorite. Thoughts?
Minimal Marvel comic book character posters
Love the idea of minimalist reinterpretations – stripping icons to their barest elements and still being recongnizable to a mass audience.
Enter Marko Manev’s series of minimalist Marvel posters, which includes icons such as Spider-Man, Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Hawkeye, Black Widow, Mr. Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch, The Thing, Silver Surfer, and more.
