WTF Comic Book Moments!!
I just recently saw this cover and I just had to share this here! It seems like Superman, Batman & Robin may be overstepping their boundaries maybe just a little bit here on this one don’t you think?! Hopefully the police didn’t get involved because seriously folks Batman looks WAY too stoked on the idea of stripping down!!
Do We Want Brandon Routh Back?
It certainly seems that Superman is back on track once again with the recent news that Chris Nolan and director Zack Snyder are determined to get the man of steel done right this time! That’s great news for all the legions of Supes fans out there-Who else would you trust more with the character? I guess we could have said that once before when we heard that Bryan Singer was onboard for the last disappointing Superman installment.
Still though I have great expectations that this time around Superman will be kicking ass like he should have been and did before in the late 70’s. The question on everyone’s minds now is who will don the red and blue this time around? Surprisingly Brandon Routh is being considered Continue reading
The First and Last Appearance of Nicotine!!
So everyone knows that smokin’ is bad for ya! Right? Well sometimes though you can easily be swayed when a dastardly supervillain named Nicotine sweet talks you with pro-smokin’ fancy talk!! After you watch this old PSA starring Superman you’ll clearly see how you sometimes need a hero to help you kick the habit! check this shit out-it’s actually a pretty awesomely animated little cartoon even if it was the first and LAST appearance of one of Superman’s greatest foes!!
Let’s Get Ready To Rumble! The greatest Cartoon Brawls Part 4!
Yeah it’s fighting time again here at Universal Dork! Today we have a great cartoon fight between Superman and Solomon Grundy! This One comes from the awesome Justice League cartoon. I always enjoyed them because they were always so well animated. It kinda gets me pumped about the possibiltiy of a Justice League movie!
It’s always nice to see good ol’ Supes brawling the bad guys at least the ones who can actually put up a fight-as you can see in this epic cartoon battle Solomon Grundy is no push over!
John Byrne:Best Artist Ever!
So the 1frombeyond’s post got me all fired up yesterday about MY favorite comic book artist of all time, Mr. John Byrne! Ever since I was a kid I loved and knew his artwork. I’d always get pretty pumped when I would see a comic book drawn by him-even at my young age I just knew there was something special about it. Perhaps it was his amazing sense of detail? Either way there are so many things I truely love about his artwork. To me he is one of the All Time Greatest and most influential comic book artists ever. Right up there with Kirby and yes even…um…Liefeld.
Anyway I decided to post some of my favorite pics that I have always loved of his artwork. Whether it’s a cover or interior panel it’s clear he was and is still the master. In a day and age where any and every band is reuniting and Harrison Ford is once again Indiana Jones, I do truely think it’s time that Marvel reunites John Byrne & Chris Claremont for another run on the X-Men!!
tony stark get’s drunk with the toxic avenger!?!
I just came across this cool little cartoon series “The Greatest Fan Film of All Time” today and found it to be QUITE amusing! It has alot of neat appearances by some pretty awesome characters and best of all it’s pretty damn humorous! I love the fact to that they include Vindicator of Alpha flight into the mix too as well as The Toxic Avenger as he get’s drunk with Tony Stark. Check out the Stan Lee appearance too near the end-classic! I just watched the first two episodes and it’s pretty cool. Now I’m gonna check out the last three to see how this turns out. check out the first two here:
The incredible hulk vs. Superman!!
When I was a kid there was nothing in the world I loved more than the Incredible Hulk!! I was always pretending to be the Hulk, playing with my Hulk action figures, reading Incredible Hulk comic books, watching the Hulk on tv and drawing pictures of the Hulk!! I remember other kids always telling me that Superman would kick the Hulk’s ass! I disagreed and also was wise enough to know that they couldn’t fight because The Hulk was a Marvel character and Superman was a DC character (later this changed and they did indeed fight a few times-Superman always winning! Damn!). Well that didn’t stop me from making my own comic book cover for this epic battle! I was very young when I drew this picture but as you can see I was pretty accurate with my comic book covers and dammit I wanted to see these two fight! Most of all I wanted to see the Hulk beat that goody two shoes Superman to pulp! As a child I pretty much thought Superman was a big loser! Anyway here’s the epic picture I drew of quite possibly The Hulk and Superman’s first battle!!
Apparently for some reason I thought DC comics stood for Delly Comics. Weird.
that great black super hero!
Hey what i wouldn’t give to have all these Megos! Check out out the little blurbs they say about each of them and how the Falcon is simply “that great black super hero”. It’s funny that “Tarzan of the Apes” is for some reason included here and that The Thing’s clothing (which isn’t even the same color as his head) is actually his rock body! Another thing that’s pretty weird is that the narrator seems to think Mr. Fantastic has the power of invisibility too!? Oh yeah check out Conan the Barbarians afro too-dope! Either way you spin it these are probably the coolest action figures of all time…
Superman and Spider-Girl, crossover movie
Well, it might not be sanctioned by either Marvel or DC, but this is a pretty great paring of 2 great superheroes. I have never seen dance moves like this preformed whilst saving innocent victims from peril. So Awesome.
It’s awesome that they gave Superman the power to become “semi-transparent” while he flys, and… Spider-Girl can fly too. Yeah.
