DragonCon Report on the way

I forgot about flickers upload cap, so I'm stuck with just the photos I have up there. =( I have been adding some to my DA page like this Phoenix Wright themed one Objection. I have a funny Happy potter one too in Hogwarts Teachers Chillin'. There is a classic Storm Trooper shot too.

I'll get up details up in the next week along with some of the best con shots on my DA page. More videos are coming too! Including all the live acts from D*C on Monday.

On an unrelated note, Google Christian Siriano at Fashion Week for some over-the-top couture creations for spring/summer. Would you (could you) wear something like that?

DC Love

Despite my hardcore love of geek paraphernalia, display pieces are never something I seek out. [Okay, the CLAMP Chess Set was the exception to the rule.] They are nice to look at, but for me just exist for me to dust.

Recently, DC put out a nice little item for Wondy that makes me almost change my mind. Via DC Direct:
Wonder Woman is recognized the world over for her distinctive tiara, bracelets and earrings, and now you can be the proud owner of these time-honored symbols of the Amazing Amazon and her incredible heritage with this prop set! Crafted from resin, these are re-creations of Wonder Woman's famous super-hero accessories, set in a stunning base that features etched artwork depicting the history of the Amazons from their creation to the crowning of young Princess Diana as Wonder Woman. The insides of the bracelets are inscribed with the code of the Amazons. These finely crafted and detailed props can be removed from the base but are not designed to be worn (or to deflect actual bullets). This limited-edition prop set comes with a Certificate of Authenticity in 4-color window box packaging.
At the end of the day, I'd rather spend my meager funds on new WW hardcovers by J. Michael Straczynski. I have faith in you J. Mike! Make remember why I love Diana. Hey, you made me read Marvel (Thor), you have magical comic writing powers.

I took a glace at the recent Ame-Comi figures, DC females in "anime-style," and I think they are reaching a bit now. Duella Dent? It is kind of cute, but I wonder how well that one will sell. I do like the up coming Steel figure though.

But now I have to pose this question; even if you aren't one for figures or statues, don't you wish you lived near the nine-foot statue of Lois Lane? I do. ♥

Abraham Lincoln, vampire hunter

The Civil War battle you haven’t heard of — until now.

This isn’t a movie trailer, it’s a book trailer, advertising the latest historical horror goof by the guy who wrote “Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.”



Wasn't there a book about Queen Victoria being a zombie hunter/vampire hunter (can't remember which)? Is this becoming too big a trand?

I know I'll pick up this book as soon as I can get my hands of it.

Bad Fashion, Boobs, and Lightsabers

It has been a random day for me. I will share the flow of randomness here, nut I'll make sure it all good.

You've seen People of Walmart, but have you seen People Of The Park? And you see what people are driving these days?

If you fell ditty after all that clean up with Soap with d20s from Geeky Clean. Dry off while to watch a video looking at How much did “Avatar” rip off “Pocahontas”? and Helicopter vs. turkey vulture

Educate youself about things you should know about breasts and learn 10 reasons to avoid talking on the phone.

Wash it all down with some lightsaber chopsticks and vintage_ads.
