Superheroes on the Christmas Tree

December 24, 2008, 10:05 pm ET by Vincent Murphy

Unlike many guys, my wife doesn’t mind if I put a few ornaments on the tree, as long as they aren’t too tasteless. I have a lot of superhero ornaments, which are spouse-approved for usage.

Growing up, though, some of my sisters would get a little annoyed when I’d make adjustments to the nativity set we had. Hawkman instead of an angel, Batman as one of the wise men, the Martian Manhunter hanging around, etc. I think I went too far when I had a Captain Kirk with a phaser pointed at baby Jesus.

Anyhow, here’s a photo of Robin hanging out on a globe ornament. You can see a couple of others on my Flickr page.

Come On, DC, Give J’onn Some Respect

This is the ugliest Martian Manhunter action figure I’ve seen. Looks like someone smacked J’onn with a shovel right across the face. Looks like he got an arm transplant from the Hulk.

The "I Really Need to Post More" Post

Two months between updates is a little long, yes. But I have been Twittering a lot, and posting picture of my new puppy Ares (eventually he’ll be the God of War, but now he’s just a Puppy of Skirmishes).

I do have some comics related things to write, I just need the time to write them…

Scooby-Doo Purified Water

Saw this at the local supermarket and the name of the product and Scooby’s rather evasive look make me wonder just HOW Scooby-Doo purified this water. I think we know the answer.

Just doing a riff off Chris’s Invincible Super-Blog’s Batman Chuk-a-rama. I decided to just Lego-fy one of the illustrations.

Batman with Alligator Nunchuks

I considered making a Batman with Indiana Jones Nunchuks, but that was just too awesome.
