Well we still don’t have any word on an official release date for the PS3 exclusive DC Universe Online MMO but today we have shots of Hal Jordan, The Green Lantern, from the game. As you can tell Hal looks like how Jim Lee would draw him (and considering Mr. Lee is doing character [...]

Announced this morning, Disney will be looking to buy Marvel Ent for $4 billion.  This is quite odd news to me as nothing of this announcement has been going around the net so I was very shocked to see this news this morning.  The sale will include the ownership of all Marvel Characters and likenesses.  [...]

Here’s another amazing vintage-style MOTU figure from Frenchcustum.  Once again, the figure is based upon a character who was featured in the original Filmation cartoons, but was never released by Mattel as a toy.  I always wanted a Strongarm figure as a kid, and this custom really does the character justice.

The time has come for the 2nd Suckadelic Super Group Suck-Off.  Last year’s show ended up being amazing, so this one should not be missed.
From The Super Sucklord:
WE ARE AT IT AGAIN!
Do you remember the SUPER SUCKOFF custom show we did at Munky King Last
year? That one cool show where the Sucklord got all [...]

FangMan has always been one of the coolest characters from the original Filmation Masters of the Universe cartoon series that, for whatever reason, never made it into action figure form.  Frenchcustum, an extremely talented French sculptor/customizer has recently remedied that. He has created a limited number of these hand sculpted/hand cast/ hand painted vintage MOTU-style [...]

I can’t tell you how many times during blackouts in my neighborhood that I’ve gotten a craving for a cocktail.  It happens more than you’d think - but every time it does, I’m pretty much screwed.  You ever try to make a Tom Collins (or Sidecar or Old Fashioned, whatever) in the pitch dark?  It’s [...]
