Yahoo! Movies just posted this tantalizing photo of hunky Chris Hemsworth as a certain thunder god you may have heard of. Love the armor. Love the cape. Love the beard. I hope this is a real photo. Also, rumor has it that Iron Man 2 will feature a post-credits teaser for Thor. If the teaser does what the gossip suggests, I will scream like a little girl. Or like…
This weekend (April 30-May 2), the center of the gay geek universe can be found in Atlanta, Georgia at OutlantaCon! Imagine, if you will, hundreds of LGBTQ fans of sci-fi, fantasy, horror and gaming meeting up in one of the greatest cities on Earth! As if that weren’t enough, Fanboys of the Universe will be there, too! In our latest podcast episode, I chat with Edward…
Little. Yellow. Evil. Our favorite jaundiced warrior goddess has arrived! Masters of the Universe Classics just released Evil-Lyn. She is certainly one of the more popular MOTU characters, and it’s not hard to see why. She’s a bad girl. She’s got attitude. And, let’s be honest here, she’s probably the only competent minion Skeletor has. Did…
I’m so glad Doctor Who is back. Even if it is a new Doctor. With a new companion. In a new show. But even with all the new, it’s still comforting having it around. So, in honor of the return of the Doctor, and since I’m only in the middle of the second episode, let’s grab a quote from my favorite moment of the premiere: “Is this world protected?…
Like most Earthicans, I read Archie comics as a kid. I was especially keen for the Betty & Veronica books, which were much more catty and fun than whatever Archie was up to. Still, I liked them all, and I’ll tell you why. No matter how nasty Reggie was to the gang, or how much trouble Archie got himself into, the idyllic world of Riverdale was a thousand times…
Hopefully, you know me well enough by now to realize that nothing in Heaven, on Earth, or on Mount Olympus is going to keep me from spending $150 for Sam Worthington in a little skirt. Action figure sculpting and technology have come a long way, baby. Why, back in my day, a toy company would hand you a slab of white plastic with a daub of yellow paint on top and call it…
I nearly spit out my Fruit Loops when I opened about a dozen emails from friends, family and site members yesterday morning, letting me know that the New York Times ran a story on gay comic book fandom. You just don’t expect to see a picture of gay guys canoodling in tights in the venerable old Times. If you haven’t read the article, you really should. It doesn’t…
Did everyone get a chance to see Kick-Ass over the weekend? Apparently, more people are interested in training dragons than kicking asses, since it only managed to come in at #2 at the box office. Still, not bad for an R-rated movie based on a comic book. I enjoyed it immensely, especially the comic geek chatter throughout the movie. I also have a brand new crush on Aaron…

V “John May” 04.13.10 Warning: Spoilers! When last we left the V gang, Erica and her estranged hubby Alex Krycek discussed whether or not to tell Tyler the truth about who he really is. It would be cool if “who he really is” is a more interesting character, but I’m not holding my breath. Meanwhile, Ryan strutted around the mother ship like…
Well, well, well. Little Miss Mall Queen just couldn’t stand that Deborah was getting all the critically-acclaimed roles in giant fish movies. Guess what, Tiff? You’ll always be second-best to Debs, not only because she writes her own songs, but because sharks are scarier than piranhas. Okay, I’ll watch it. But I won’t like it. Mega Piranha is current…
