Iron Man Inspired Marvel Comics Craft Projects

Working_on_the_Mark_II

Like I said before about comic book superheroes, while they tend to seen as something loved by geeks, they are part of the American cultural heritage that must be recognized. Seriously, many of your DC and Marvel superheroes have been around longer than Star Trek, Star Wars, Harry Potter, and many popular TV shows. Hell, Super Man, Batman, Wonder Woman, and Captain America have been fighting bad guys in comic books before television. The X-Men and the Avengers originally got together before you’ve ever heard of Trekkies or Jedi. Nevertheless, while many fans might go for the merchandise, some creative types might salute their superheroes through their art. And of course, there are superheroes in the Marvel Universe who like to make things. Maybe not craft projects. After all, while Tony Stark can make a radioactive heart and an Iron Man suit. Hell, he even made a heart with a new element in his workshop. However, most craft projects aren’t as sophisticated as what Tony Stark makes in his man cave. Yet, some people do have craft projects in their workshops or their garage. Nevertheless, you find plenty of Marvel craft projects on Pinterest if you take a look. So for your reading pleasure, I present to you a trove of craft projects inspired by Marvel Comics.

  1. Seems like the Star Lord has a mug with his name on it.
Well, the Star Lord needs to have his own drinking vessel. Doesn't he? I mean he has to eat and drink.

2. Even Captain America needs his cup of joe in the morning.

Yes, this is a patriotic coffee mug for a patriotic superhero. Let's hope Cap's brand is still around.

3. Cuddle up with this Spider Man crocheted web blanket.

And yes, it's of a web with a big black spider on it. Sure Spider Man is a popular superhero. But spiders are a popular phobia.

4. Avenger bows, assemble!

Yes, these are for young girls. And they are of the Avengers. Also includes one for Loki who's not. But he's such a great villain that there was a demand.

5. Step out in a pair of these Avengers heels.

These are covered with Avenger comic books. Or at least comic book paper.

6. If you love Spider Man, then cuddle up with this amigurumi.

Not sure if this guy could spin a web. But he sure looks somewhat adorable. Not sure about the eyes.

Yes, apparently you can make your own tesseract. Would've saved Loki lots of trouble if he had such knowledge.

8. Salute America’s favorite super soldier with these Captain America shield earrings.

Because a great weapon should have an image to become a great fashion accessory. Still, I think I split an earlobe with earrings that big.

9. Plant some flowers in your neighborhood Spider Man.

The kind of superhero flower pot that was inspired by one who was bitten by a radioactive spider. And one that contains spiders, too.

Yes, he's a super soldier with a super shield. And he's super cute, too. The one in the movies isn't bad looking either.

13. There’s nothing more beautiful at Stark Industries than this Iron Man Bow.

This one is gold and red with Tony Stark's radioactive heart. Which goes broke in the second film where he has to make a new element.

14. Nothing’s more Spider Many like a Spider Man spider.

I have to admit, I know people would freak out over this. But I think it's pretty clever. After all, Spider Man does have a spider emblem.

15. For Guardians of the Galaxy fans, you can’t go without a sampler like this.

20. Those in college Greek life might enjoy these Avengers paddles.

These are Avengers sorority paddles. Let's just say I'm not a big fan of frats or sororities. And I'm glad I went to a college that banned them.

21. This Thor jewelry set is among the finest in Asgard.

Thus, this Thor jewelry set of thunder bolt earrings and a Mjolnir pendant necklace should only go to he who is worthy. Still, it's Thor's symbol.

27. With the Avengers, you’d always have enough members for a charm bracelet.

Wonder why all the Avengers don't have charm bracelets like these. Might've prevented Civil War (though when I hear it, I think of an entirely different conflict).

31. Those at S.H.I.E.L.D. lay their heads on knit pillows with their own insignia.

Sure S.H.I.E.L.D. is supposed to be a secret government organization. Yet, it has its own insignia like MI-6 in James Bond.

41. Nothing makes a warmer blanket than one having these Avengers assembled.

43. For Iron Man, nothing shines brighter than his reactor heart.

This is the heart Tony Stark created in Iron Man 2 in which he invented a new element. Still, it's rather pretty.

Sure you might think this is fine furniture. Until you notice that the cushioning depicts Spider Man. Still, I'm sure Peter Parker can't afford this if his life depended on it.

60. Perhaps you’d want a scarf with Spider Man fingers.

It's the lamp of Iron Man's mask. Yet it appears to be made by a bunch of stained glass pieces. Not for practical use other than lighting.

81. A tie dye Captain America T-shirt enters on a great patriotic groove.

Then again, when it comes to superheroes, a Captain America tie dye is the easiest to pull off. Too bad Cap was frozen during the 1960s (at least in the movies).

83. “I’m with you till’ the end of the line.”

You have to admire how Captain America is willing to stand by his friend Bucky Barnes. Seeing his best friend like that must be a rather painful experience for him. Much like how Katniss was when Peeta was hijacked. At least he got better.

100. These Avengers pendant necklaces really go together.

Each Avenger image is taken from the comic book illustrations. Still, I like the look of movie Thor better as anyone would guess.

Marvel Comics Merchandise Straight From Stark Industries

Posted by historymaniacmegan on

As we know from the DC Comics merchandise post, companies love to do product placement for superheroes whether they appear in cartoons, TV, or in the movies. And yes, Thor probably should have his own shampoo. But unfortunately, this is a parody so you won’t be able to find any Thoreal on any store shelves or on Amazon. Sorry for those who wanted to get Thor’s silky Asgardian golden locks. Still, Marvel Comics superheroes tend to have considerable merchandise, even today. Of course, if you’re a lady superhero, you’re probably not going to get much merchandise in your image even if you’ve appeared in 4 Marvel movies. And it’s because Marvel feels that catering to boys is more profitable as well as consist of a bunch of sexist pricks. Sorry, Black Widow, yet you should get your own movie. But I’m not sure if Marvel will get around to it any time soon. Also, Gamora from Guardians of the Galaxy seems to be getting screwed out of the merchandise as well. Not to mention the women from X-Men, too. Nevertheless, when it came to Marvel merchandising, I tried to find some of the more ridiculous products since they tend to incite giggles. Some might seem inappropriate. Others are just plain weird. But whatever the case, I went great lengths to find such merchandise. So for your reading pleasure, here is an assortment of Marvel merch for you to enjoy. Or not.

  1. A Captain America shield coffee table is a must have for any patriotic living room.
Because Captain America is a patriotic superhero. Also, a lot of his merchandise has to resemble his trademark shield.

2. Nothing strikes fear in the minds of criminals like this Punisher action figure.

I've shown this one before on a Christmas toy post back in 2013. Still, it bears another mention since he has a large erect gun in his crotch. And it doesn't help when he's partway through in transforming into a gun either.

3. No Captain America fan should be without a pair of patriotic winged socks.

Uh, I think any Captain America fan can do without these. Seriously, Cap no longer has wings on his helmet. Besides, who do you think you are trying to get away with this? Hermes?

4. If you like Spider Man, then you’ll like these “Spi” robo dogs.

From I-Mockery: "Few things on this earth bring the word "abomination" to my mind, but I'll be damned if these Spider-Man "Spi-Dogs" don't do just that. It's bad enough when pet owners dress up their animals in ridiculous costumes to make them look more human, but this is really just going too far. So what do robotic dogs who dance to iPod music have to do with Spider-Man? What, you mean you don't know? Yeah well... neither do I. Gotta love it when completely random companies try to cash in on a big movie even though they clearly have no products that could be logically tied in with it."

5. For those who really liked Vision from Age of Ultron, here’s a great new ballpark cap you can wear.

Okay, I admit, Vision is a pretty cool superhero. But this hat? Seriously, this just seems like a tacky eyesore.

Okay, I admit, Vision is a pretty cool superhero. But this hat? Seriously, this just seems like a tacky eyesore.

6. No die hard Spider Man fan could ever be without their very own Spider Spud.

And I thought the Batman Mr. Potato Heads were ridiculous. According to I-Mockery: "'When a radioactive spider bit Peter Parker Potato, he became Spider Spud. With eyes for trouble, this web slinger uses his starch-strength to mash out evil and save the day.' You really can't go wrong with a potato that has a back-story like that. I also can't deny my desire to store real potatoes in that removable Spidey suit too."

I also can’t deny my desire to store real potatoes in that removable Spidey suit too.”

7. Rid your home of bugs with this Spider Man bug vacuum.

From I-Mockery: "At first glance you might be thinking, "What the hell? Since when does Spider-Man use a gun?" Well, my friend, that's no ordinary gun... it's a bug vacuum. It's a little-known fact that, in his spare time, Spider-Man is a practicing entomologist. Coming in both Spidey and Venom patterns, you can use these vacuums to suck up any bugs you can find. I suppose it's better than taking the chance of being bit by one, but isn't that part of the excitement of catching bugs when you're a kid? Defying death 'n all? Besides, getting bit by a bug isn't always a bad thing. Look what it did for Peter Parker!"

8. Get up in the morning to Captain America shield waffles with this patriotic waffle iron.

And it's all part of this complete patriotic super breakfast. Seriously, this just seems like a novelty thing at the least.

And it’s all part of this complete patriotic super breakfast. Seriously, this just seems like a novelty thing at the least.

9. When it comes to a superhero party, you just can’t celebrate without a Spider Man balloon.

Well, Spidey, didn't know a man like you can be so, well, well-endowed so to speak. Well, let's just say that Mary Jane must be a very lucky woman if you ask me. Oh, shit.

Well, Spidey, didn’t know a man like you can be so, well, well-endowed so to speak. Well, let’s just say that Mary Jane must be a very lucky woman if you ask me. Oh, shit.

10. Have tons of spidey fun with this Spider Man Crayola Crayon maker.

From I-Mockery: "What better way for aspiring young comic book artists to learn how to draw Spider-Man than with their own homemade spidey-shaped crayons? Ok, so maybe sticking with more traditionally-shaped writing tools is the best way to go, but there's no denying the fun of seeing the details of Spider-Man's face slowly getting rubbed out just so you can write "Kick Me" on a sheet of paper."

11. With this Avengers cologne set, you can finally smell like a superhero.

I don't know about guys reading this. But do you really want to smell like an Avenger? I mean you might like the Hulk. But that doesn't mean you want to smell like him.

I don’t know about guys reading this. But do you really want to smell like an Avenger? I mean you might like the Hulk. But that doesn’t mean you want to smell like him.

12. Now you can toss the old pigskin any time with this Spider Man Nerf Weather Blitz Football.

From I-Mockery: "... I'm not really sure what Spider-Man and football have in common unless you compare Spidey getting his power from a spider bite to a football player getting his power from 'roids. Anyway, NERF is claiming that with the special web-laced grip patterns, you'll never drop this football even if it's raining out. After all, why actually practice a sport to get better at it when you can have technology make you look way better than you'll ever truly be. And hey, since it's a NERF ball you can go all out during the big game without any fear of being hurt just like a real superhero! "

13. Talk to Spider-Man yourself with this talking camera phone.

Well, the phone is fake. But according to Amazon, "Little superheroes will love carrying around this pretend-play phone so they're at the beck and call of the next emergency in Gotham." Wait a second, Gotham? Seriously, Amazon, that's Batman's territory. Spider Man usually stays out of that place since it's in the DCU.

14. Immerse yourself in the pool with this Spider Man swim mask.

From I-Mockery: "In all honestly, I can't think of a better way to distance yourself from the opposite sex by walking around with this thing on. Of course, you could add in some Spidey Arm Floaties or Spidey Flippers for added effect just to ensure that not a single person on this planet will ever speak to you. Either way, enjoy your new life as a pool recluse."

Either way, enjoy your new life as a pool recluse.”

15. Help fight the bad guys with speed with this Spider Man Bum n’ Go Web Rider.

From I-Mockery: "Ignoring the fact that Spider-Man has no need for vehicular transportation when he can get around the city via web-slinging: Can somebody please explain to me how the hell adding mechanical spider legs to the base of a motorcycle is going to make it go faster or improve it in any way whatsoever? Hmm, you know what? Don't even bother trying."

Hmm, you know what? Don’t even bother trying.”

16. Snuggle up with your very own Itsy Bitsy Spider Man plush doll.

From I-Mockery: "There are some things that Spider-Man was NEVER meant to do... singing and dancing would have to be near the top of that list. Yet here he is doing just that with the Itsy Bitsy Spider-Man interactive plush doll. Having him actually dance to the Itsy Bitsy Spider song has got to be the most embarrassing thing to ever happen to him. And that's saying a lot consider we're talking about Peter Parker here."

17. Nothing goes better with a suit than these Iron Man cuff links.

Okay, Tony Stark may wear an Iron Man suit to fight crime. And he may have the balls to publicly admit he's Iron Man. However, I'm not sure he'd have the guts to wear such links at a formal party.

18. Guys, pop the question like an Avenger with this Iron Man Nuclear Reactor engagement ring.

Sure it may not be like proposing to your girlfriend with a Batman engagement ring. However, in case you're Tony Stark and head Stark Industries, you shouldn't even go for it. Seriously, you might fantasize about doing this. But you should probably go with a real ring instead even if it's more expensive.

19. Store your gumballs in this Doctor Octopus gumball dispenser.

I don't know about you. But Doctor Oc seems rather tangled up in his mechanical appendages at the moment. Not sure what to make of that.

20. Like plants? This Spider Man Web Swinging Chia Pet Building is for you.

Then again, I suppose a Spider Man chia head would be worse. But I'm not sure if a plant covered wall is great for Spidey's climbing abilities.

21. Set your drinks at night with these Iron Man nuclear reactor light up coasters.

Sure coasters are useful since they protect furniture. But light up ones? I think these might be a bit expensive for my tastes.

22. On your table, nothing says togetherness like a set of Captain America and Iron Man salt and pepper shaker set.

Note that in the next Captain America movie, you'd want to keep these guys as far away from each other as possible. Seriously, bring up Bucky and they will not get on.

23. Keep your writing implements safe with this Deadpool pencil holder.

Now you can finally take a stab in Deadpool's head after he's taken a few blows. For the love of God, this is so messed up.

Now you can finally take a stab in Deadpool’s head after he’s taken a few blows. For the love of God, this is so messed up. Also are those brains?

24. Drink like a superhero with this decorated Spider Man goblet.

Spider Man has a pimp cup? Seriously, Marvel? What the hell were you thinking?

Spider Man has a pimp cup? Seriously, Marvel? What the hell were you thinking?

25. When you’re in need, just call on your neighborhood Spider Man.

And I thought the toy Spidey cell phone was ridiculous. This one has you dial on Spider Man's body. Wonder how he'd react when you push his buttons.

26. If you liked X-Men in the 1990s, check out this Bonebreaker action figure.

Okay, he's not a well known character of X-Men and his legs are in a tank. And when you detach it from him, he has no legs. Also, how does he pee?

27. Or this action figure of the Blob.

From Cracked: "You may remember the Blob from the Wolverine movie or your local Walmart. His mutant power is morbid obesity. This is the "realistic" variant for the Blob action figure, because the standard one didn't have enough chins. It even has chins all over its legs, and not one but two sets of moobs."

28. Or an action figure of Wolfsbane.

From Cracked: "Wolfsbane looks like she's murdered and scalped multiple Don Kings and attached the scalps to her body in ritualistic fashion. If the Internet hasn't yet produced an erotic fan fiction story starring her and Grizzlor from He-Man, we're betting it will within 15 minutes of this article being published."

29. If your favorite X-Men mutant was Banshee, check out this 1990s whistle chest action figure.

From Cracked: "Banshee is a relatively well-known character with a super-powered scream ... which they decided to represent here by jamming a whistle into his chest. You blow (into) him. They could have given him a sound chip or something, but no, clearly this was the more dignified solution."

30. Fans of Doctor Strange might like this Astral action figure.

From Cracked: "Well-known superheroes can make disappointing action figures, too, as Marvel Toys has worked hard to prove for the past 20 years. In this case, Dr. Strange is dead and you have bought his ghost. He seems to be saying "WooooOOOooo I cost you $9.99! BOO!" This was actually a recolored variant of an earlier Dr. Strange figure that was supposed to represent his "astral form" or some bullshit."

31. Fans of the Fantastic Four may enjoy this action figure of the Invisible Woman.

So she's supposed to be the Invisible Woman. So is she still invisible if her joints are showing? That's a trick question.

32. Fans of the Ghost Rider might appreciate an action figure like this.

From Cracked: "And then, there are the figures that someone only buys for a child if they want to give them emotional baggage. For example, check out this figure of Ghost Rider in the midst of his transformation (alternatively packaged as "person burning alive")."

33. If you liked Spider Man, how about an action figure of Peter Parker’s boss J. Jonah Jameson?

Cracked: "J. Jonah Jameson's deep hatred of Spider-Man seems somewhat less threatening when he's wearing his dad's suit. Also, we couldn't help noticing that his pants appear to be removable. He has a thong under there, doesn't he?"

Cracked: “J. Jonah Jameson’s deep hatred of Spider-Man seems somewhat less threatening when he’s wearing his dad’s suit. Also, we couldn’t help noticing that his pants appear to be removable. He has a thong under there, doesn’t he?”

34. And who could forget Peter Parker’s beloved Aunt May who raised him? There’s an action figure of her, too.

Okay, Marvel Toys seems to take Peter Parker's loving aunt who's basically his only family at the moment and turned her into a creature of your nightmares. That's disturbing.

Okay, Marvel Toys seems to take Peter Parker’s loving aunt who’s basically his only family at the moment and turned her into a creature of your nightmares. That’s disturbing.

35. This Spider Man plush doll will show what’s really going on inside him.

So this plush toy allows you to split Spider Man open in order to see his insides. Sounds very creepy. But do you think any kid would want to see that? No.

36. Sit back in relax in your very own Spider Man easy chair.

It's just like sitting on Spider Man's lap. Except that you'll have to pay a shitload of money for it.

It’s just like sitting on Spider Man’s lap. Except that you’ll have to pay a shitload of money for it.

37. “Avengers Ass-emble!”

Seriously, a pair of Avengers panties? I bet this was Tony Stark's idea. After all, he's the wise ass of the group.

38. You can now wake up in the morning with some Spider Man toast in this toaster.

Because nothing makes a kid excited for breakfast than having a burned spider on their toast. Not recommended for those who are afraid of spiders.

39. Take a drink with your buddies from this Amazing Spider Man shot glass set.

Yes, because every time Peter Parker saves the day, he just has to celebrate it with friends in a drinking contest. Oh, wait a minute, how many of Peter's friends know he's Spider Man?

40. This Iron Man USB Flash drive hand lights up when it’s plugged into your computer.

You can also set up the hand however you like. How much data does this thing store?

You can also set up the hand however you like. How much data does this thing store?

41. Keep your clubs warm with this Spider Man golf head cover.

Not sure if I'd put Spider Man and golf together. However, I think just has a partial body of him followed by a sock tube.

42. There’s no candy more fun than some Marvel candy glo pops.

It's the kind of candy with a superhero head you give your kid just before their first rave. Available in Spider Man, Hulk, Iron Man, and Captain America.

43. Help out your neighborhood Spider Man with his very own game of Operation.

Are you the kind of Spider Man fan who constantly fantasizes butchering the famous webslinger and taking out his internal organs? If so, then this is the game for you, you sick bastard.

44. Absolut Vodka, the drink of Marvel superheroes.

Well, at least the Thor one is fitting because Absolut is a Swedish Brand. However, we should note that Iron Man is a boozer, Spider Man spends considerable time in movies as a teenager, and let's just say the Hulk should abstain.

Not sure how many people liked Ant-Man. However, I don't know anyone who likes ants or has an ant farm.

Not sure how many people liked Ant-Man. However, I don’t know anyone who likes ants or has an ant farm.

46. Feast like an Avenger with this Avengers Jollibee Chicken Joy fried chicken bucket.

This is from an Asian company since I see mostly Asians eating this stuff. Still, not sure if it would make Thor shout, "Another!"

47. Do you work on your very own Avengers desk.

Sure it looks really cool. But most likely you will never have this in your study because it's probably incredibly expensive. Dream on.

48. If you can’t afford expensive Avengers cologne, may I suggest you go with the Avengers EDT spray?

This is the cheap drugstore version of the kind of cologne scents that make you smell like a superhero. Not sure if it's as idiotic.

49. Protect your eyes while swimming with a pair of Incredible Hulk swim mask.

From Media Dump: "What's better than swimming underwater with the ability to see? If your answer is doing so in the image of the Hulk just in case you need to terrify approaching sea monsters, the Marvel must be reading your mind."

50. For a less expensive desk, this one was brought to you by S.H.I.E.L.D.

From Movieline: "The spartan surface hides a number of compartment, hidden speakers and an iPod dock. The overall appearance calls to mind a possible scene where the members of the team turn to Thor's Nordic experience to help them decipher the arcane instructions to an IKEA design."

51. You would have lots of fun with this inflatable Wolverine hammer.

However, there's a small catch to this. Like you have to inflate the toy by blowing through his crotch. Not sure if this placement wasn't intentional.

52. Be like Tony Stark by wearing this replica bracelet with his suit summoning device on it.

From Movieline: "It uses the power of magnets to — uh, well, help you out. Plus it is versatile: "Perfect both for Avengers thwarting arch enemies at the top of their game, or for everyday casual/business use." The bling's benefits sound impressive: They are axially magnetized in their trademarked "alternating north-south polarity orientation" (ANSPO) — which basically means the manufacturer took one of the magnets and flipped it over." From Japan, by the way.

53. For a hero sandwich this Montana lunch meat is the thing you need.

From Movieline: "You, too, can feel a kinship with supernaturally gifted heroes by eating machine-stripped, processed and mechanically extruded ham loaf. Europe also has realized the cold-cut windfall to be had, with the Italian company Montana Foods following suit. Heroic baloney in Bologna — who'd have guessed?"

54. On X-Men who could forget Wolverine’s alter ego Wolverine Patch? Well, here’s an action figure of him.

From the Robot’s Voice: ” BattleBrigade.jpg ?You have to give the Biz credit for trying to get out comic-accurate variations on Wolverine, even if they had to dress them up as hideous, kid-friendly monstrosities. This figure is actually a pretty decent version of Patch, Wolvie’s alter ego while in Madripoor, but he’s weighed down by a massive pair of shoulder pads, with robotic knives for machine-powered stabbing. Do not f@*& with Wolverine Patch.”

55. Be a beast in the office with this Hulk Smash Stapler.

For some reason I find it rather appropriate. However, this doesn't mean Bruce Banner is suited for an office environment. Because he isn't.

56. Carry your things with this Captain America shield backpack.

Another rather appropriate item. However, unless you're in elementary school, would you want to be seen with this on? Probably not.

57. See who’s lurking outside with a pair of Captain America binoculars.

Despite having Falcon as a sidekick, Captain America doesn't seem very comfortable with black people. That is, according to the packaging of this product.

58. Be your own superhero with this Captain America utility belt.

Something seems to be missing from this set. Oh, wait his shield. Shouldn't his trademark shield be in this. What's Captain America without it.

Something seems to be missing from this set. Oh, wait his shield. Shouldn’t his trademark shield be in this. What’s Captain America without it.

59. This Captain America light switch plate will make your room like an Avenger’s.

Uh, do these designers understand that a guy's crotch is not a great place to put a light switch? Seriously, how many times have I seen this in merchandise?

60. Fix things like a superhero with some Avengers tape works.

Yes, this is Avengers tape. Why would anyone want to use this, I have no idea.

Yes, this is Avengers tape. Why would anyone want to use this, I have no idea.

61. If you like the original X-Men movie, you might appreciate these Logan and Rogue action figures.

The Robot's Voice calls this one "Disco Logan" due to his pose. Not sure when Wolverine learned to boogie during the late 1970s. But I can guess he was probably kicked out of a few clubs for obvious reasons.

62. Now you can save bath time with these Avengers rubber duckies.

Well, at least this set includes Black Widow. Still, while adorable, not sure if these are appropriate.

63. Light up your home with these Avengers deco wall lights.

How would you like to have these in your wall? Kind of makes it seem like the Avengers did some damage.

64. If you want to hail HYDRA, these cufflinks are just the thing.

Hmmm...not sure if you should be wearing cufflinks depicting such an evil organization. And I thought the Iron Man ones were ridiculous.

65. Feast on a meal fit for an Avenger like some Iron Man ramen noodle soup.

Sure it's from Asia. But I think putting Iron Man's face on something that doesn't remind me of poor struggling young adults would be more appropriate.

66. Iron your clothes with this iron man iron.

Iron Man iron, get it? May not be great against villains. But it will sure help out with wrinkles.

67. Move your computer with these Iron Man computer mice.

Now you can navigate the computer screen with Iron Man's disembodied face. Okay, this is kind of disturbing.

68. When it comes to X-Men Classics, there is always Light Up Weapon Wolverine.

What the hell? By the color scheme you'd think that this was one of those knock of action figures from Mexico. But no, it's not.

69. In the future, defeat enemies with this X-Men Missile Flyers Future Wolverine.

From The Robot's Voice: "Apparently, in the future, Wolverine will dress like a giant, muscular bat, put on a scary mask and fly through the night on green, feathery wings to terrify evil-doers. So… Future Wolverine is Batman?"

70. Nothing protects superheroes like Fangor armor in this Wolverine action figure.

From The Robot's Voice: "I’m not sure exactly what function this “armor” serves. Do the big, hairy boots protect against the cold? Does the fright mask scare off Morlocks? Do the giant grey fingers protect Woverine’s claws against tarnishing? Whatever the reason, the fully “armored” Wolverine looks more like a member of Gwar then any toy I’ve ever seen — which must have something to do with the fact that the head sculpt underneath looks a lot like Glenn Danzig."

71. For better protection, here’s an action figure of Wolverine in battle armor.

From the Robot's Voice: "Anti-Magnetism Armor actually seems like something Wolverine could use, since his metal bones constantly make him an easy target for Magneto. Why he also needs a giant grabby claw, I have no idea. Apparently his heavy armor also prevents him from reaching things on high shelves?"

72. If you like Mystique, here’s her in her Wolverine disguise.

Doesn't seem to make for a convincing Wolverine. Then again, this one probably has Mystique paired with a conventional Wolverine action figure.

73. Make your move on the board with these Avengers chess pieces.

Well, this one is between heroes and villains. However, not sure which positions these pieces play.

Not sure if having a raccoon on your back is a good idea. Yes, they're cute, but this is kind of ridiculous.

75. From Prehistoric times, there’s  Savage Wolverine and Crawler-Rex, X-Men: Savage Land action figures.

Think of this as X-Men meets the Flinstones. From The Robot's Voice: "No nose. Bone claws. Bad haircut. Droopy sideburns. Tattered costume. Skull shoulderpads. Massive shoulders. Tiny waist. Ugly dinosaur accessory. How in the hell does a toy this horrible get made?"

76. Have a face like a superhero with these Avengers safety razors.

Seems like this is collection of very expensive razors that you wouldn't find in a drugstore. Seriously, how many times will a guy use these before they have to replace the blade?

78. Know what it’s like to be Peter Parker in this Spider sense tingling T-shirt.

Not sure if I'd want a tingling shirt like this. This kind of gimmick might get pretty old after awhile if you ask me.

80. Look sharp in these Spider Man sunglasses.

While we may consider wearing sunglasses with coolness, I don't see it in this case. Rather I think these shades make you look idiotic.

82. Spin a web like Spider Man with these web shooter.

You see a lot of these. Some come with different materials like twine, rubberized webs, and water. There's even a silly string version that could stain fabrics.

84. For a super music soundtrack listen to Spider Man: Reflections of a Superhero.

Yes, they actually had this from the 1970s. Like how Peter Parker is viewing himself in Spidey's reflection.

85. If you like Spidey, this cologne might help you smell like him.

Because there's nothing that smells fresher than a guy being bitten by a radioactive spider. Or a guy who spent some time in a full body spandex suit on a hot day.

86. Rock on like a superhero with this Iron Man electric guitar.

Wonder if you can play "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath on there. Then again, that's song isn't really about Iron Man.

87. Red Skull is one of the most menacing Marvel villains. Here is his action figure.

Man, sure looks scary. But not killer Nazi scary. More like clown scary. Also seems pretty lame.

88. Get Spidey nails with these bottles of Spider Man nail polish.

So what the hell does Spider Man have to do with nail polish? Because I think it's pretty ridiculous.

89. When you need to go, read some Spider Man vs. Hulk toilet paper comics.

It's the kind of literature you read while you're taking a shit before you wipe your ass with it. And yes, they actually had this.

90. Help Spidey save the day with your own Spider Man train.

So why does Spider Man need his own train. It's not like he's Spider Hobo on the side. Yet, given Peter Parker's money problems, I wouldn't be surprised.

91. If you love Marvel Comics, then this action figure of Stan Lee is a must.

It's special purpose is making a cameo in a key Marvel superhero battle scene. Nothing else.

98. Of all the mutant monsters, there’s nobody scarier than Werewolf Wolverine.

From the Robot's Voice: "Man, I don’t remember the storyline where Wolverine turned into a werewolf, but if it was anything like Captain America’s “Capwolf” Saga, then it must have been a humdinger. I’ve also heard good things about the Werewolf by Night storyline where he gets bitten by a mystical wolverine, turning him into the ferocious Wolverine Werewolf."

Avengers Assembled Dressed in These Marvel Comics Costumes

Posted by historymaniacmegan on

thequint-2015-11-ab722259-b28d-4ee8-8c25-4824c2ef38a5-avengers

Moving on from DC comics, we have the other comic book giant Marvel who also has a superhero movie coming out in May. This one is titled Captain America: Civil War and it pertains to Captain America squaring off against Iron Man. They also have X-Men: Apocalypse coming out later that month which will sadly not have Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. Nevertheless, while DC Comics is better known for Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and a few others, Marvel has more superheroes you’re probably more familiar with. Marvel Comics is responsible for bringing superheroes like Spider-Man, Iron Man, Captain America, Wolverine, Thor, Hulk, Deadpool, Daredevil, Doctor Strange, and Ant-Man. You might also be more familiar with teams like the Avengers, the X-Men, the Fantastic Four, the Inhumans, and my personal favorite the Guardians of the Galaxy mostly because the movie was funny and Star Lord has such a great taste in music. Seriously, the music just makes the movie, trust me. And let’s not forget villains Dr. Doom, the Enchantress, Ultron, Doctor Octopus, Thanos, Magneto, and Loki. Most of these characters operate in the Marvel Comics Universe with locations mirroring real life cities.

5043020-5756024271-x-men

Marvel Comics as we know it was founded by a man named Martin Goodman in 1939 under the name Timely Productions and later Atlas before it assumed the Marvel name in the 1960s. Its first issue would appear in October that featured the Human Torch and Namor the Sub-Mariner which was a great success with 900,000 copies sold. That year Goodman would hire his wife’s cousin as an office assistant who’d later become editor in 1941. That man was Stanley Lieber who’s now known as Stan Lee. He would hold that position for decades except for the 3 years he served in WWII. Also, in March 1941, the Captain America would make his debut which led to 1 million sold. However, most of Marvel’s best known superheroes wouldn’t make their debuts until the 1960s like most of the Avengers (Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Black Widow, and Hawkeye), some of the X-Men (with Professor X, Cyclops, Jean Grey, Beast, Angel, and Iceman), Daredevil, the Fantastic Four, Doctor Strange, Spider-Man, the original Guardians of the Galaxy, and Ant-Man. Even still, others wouldn’t be added until the 1970s like Nightcrawler, Wolverine, Blade, the Punisher, Storm, Luke Cage, and most of those you see in the Guardians of the Galaxy except Groot (who appeared in 1960 but wasn’t a member then. Neither would the others until the 2000s). Rogue, Emma Frost, and Kitty Pryde would debut in the 1980s. And Deadpool would appear in the 1990s. Oh, and characters like Quicksilver, the Scarlet Witch, Black Widow, and Hawkeye were originally written as villains.

Guardians-of-the-Galaxy-End-Credits-Scene-Explained

As with the DC Comics, it’s not unusual for Marvel fans to dress up as their favorite superheroes for conventions. And while costumes are available, many tend to make their own. And yes, there are cosplayers among the ranks. Some even bring their whole families. So for your reading pleasure, I give you a treasure trove of costumes inspired by Marvel Comics.

  1. Seems like the X-Men are older than I originally thought.
Actually these are the Steampunk X-Men. This consists of Gambit, Professor X, Wolverine, and Jean Grey. Or is it Rogue?

2. Apparently, Loki is plotting something with the tesseract.

Despite being seen as a villain in the MCU, Loki is more of a trickster in Norse mythology. And he wasn't seen as Thor's brother either. Either way, I'm sure he was quite popular.

3. “Pikapool, I choose you.”

Now that's just the worst Pikachu I've seen. Still, it's pretty funny since it's Deadpool.

4. Wolverine’s claws can slice through almost anything you can imagine.

He can also heal himself, by the way. So that means he's almost indestructible.

5. Seems like someone is ready for Easter.

This is a cosplay that combines Hugh Jackman's characters of Wolverine and the Easter Bunny. And yes, it's hysterical.

6. When you need a spy to climb on walls, Spider-Woman is your gal.

Spider-Woman first appeared in 1977 and was in 50 issues of Marvel Spotlight. Where, at the end she was killed. Her character was relaunched in 2015.

7. Elektra surely knows her way around with her daggers.

Elektra is a Greek assassin as well as a love interest of Daredevil. However, her violent nature and mercenary lifestyle divide the two, for good reason.

8. A baby wolverine is said to be a very rare sight in nature.

Okay, this is a baby dressed as Wolverine with little fangs from the arms. But still, so cute.

9. Among X-Men villains, there are no women as well known as Mystique.

Mystique is a shapeshifter who can take a form of any person and mimic their voice with excellent precision. She also can appear fully naked in a PG-13 movie (though you don't see some bits).

10. Deadpool seems to dress like quite the gentleman.

However, a gentleman he is not. However, he's said to be a disfigured and mentally unstable mercenary. Yet, he's also known to be quite funny.

11. As an Avenger, Black Widow is skilled with high tech weaponry and gymnastics.

However, she's also one of the most screwed over superheroes as far as Marvel is concerned. So far she's appeared in Iron Man, Captain America, and the Avengers, and hasn't gotten her own movie. Also, she doesn't appear in a lot of merchandise.

12. Avengers family, assemble.

Yes, this is a whole family dressing up as the Avengers. However, I almost didn't use it due to the dad wearing blackface make up. Sure he's supposed to be Nick Fury, but still. It's kind of racist.

13. As a mutant, Emma Frost is sometimes seen as the White Queen.

She was initially a villain and as a leader of the Hellfire Club. She later ends up with Cyclops.

14. When fighting crime, Daredevil doesn’t let his blindness get in the way.

Daredevil's early life is a tragic one. His mother left him when he was a baby. After being blinded by a radioactive substance, his dad (who raised him) was later killed on a gangster's orders.

15. I’m sure this girl is bound to cause a little storm.

Because she's Storm from X-Men. She's the first black female superhero to play a major or supporting role from either Marvel or DC.

17. When it comes to the X-Men, Jean Grey always plays a significant part.

Jean Grey is the only female founding member of the X-Men. She's also a very powerful psychic. Can be nice but don't hurt her loved ones.

18. There is no better bounty hunter in the galaxy than Logan Fett.

This is Wolverine matched with Boba Fett from Star Wars. Has metal fangs and a jetpack.

19. Guess Rogue isn’t a huge fan of solitaire.

Rogue is a rather unstable mutant who can involuntarily absorb powers, strength, and memories. For a while, her inability to control them almost drove her insane.

20. This baby Hulk is very hard to resist.

Of course, you don't want to make him angry. Seriously, when it comes to tantrums, Hulk babies are the worst.

21. Ms. Marvel can shoot fire from her hands.

There are actually a few Ms. Marvels. The first one was Carol Danvers who first appeared in 1968.

This is Groot when he appears in the end of the movie. Still, this costume is adorable.

23. Captain America never goes into battle without his shield.

Which he sometimes uses as an overly large discus. Nevertheless, he's one of Marvel's best known and most enduring superheroes.

Which he sometimes uses as an overly large discus. Nevertheless, he’s one of Marvel’s best known and most enduring superheroes.

24. Due to her immense powers, Jean Grey is also called, “Phoenix.”

And like a Phoenix, she's said to die and resurrect several times. So if she falls, she will be back.

And like a Phoenix, she’s said to die and resurrect several times. So if she falls, she will be back.

25. Mystique is always distinctive by her blue skin.

And thanks to CGI, she can fight with absolutely nothing on her. However, those who dress like her have to wear a suit.

26. “I am Groot.”

Groot is a plant creature from Guardians of the Galaxy. "I am Groot," is practically all he says. But he is good at following directions, even when he's not supposed to.

27. Man, Iron Man sure has a nice suit.

This seems quite fancy compared to his other suits. Not sure if it's good for fighting bad guys though.

This seems quite fancy compared to his other suits. Not sure if it’s good for fighting bad guys though.

28. And where would Captain America be without his Peggy Carter?

Yes, she was his great love. However, you know this isn't going to last. Because he'll be spending decades in suspended animation.

Yes, she was his great love. However, you know this isn’t going to last. Because he’ll be spending decades in suspended animation.

29. As a super villain, Galactus is known to drain energy from living planets.

By the way, he's the primary antagonist of the Fantastic Four. However, his outfit sometimes makes it hard to take him seriously.

30. From Avengers: Age of Ultron are Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch.

And this is how the 2 appeared in the movie. They weren't referred to as such though.

31. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Cattain America: the first feline patriotic superhero.

Yes, this is a cat dressed up as Cap. However, I'm not sure if it possesses the same patriotic spirit.

32. Who knows where Iron Man would be without his Pepper Potts.

Because Pepper Potts loves him so much that she's willing to do everything for him. However, they don't end up together in the original comic series though.

33. From Guardians of the Galaxy, Gamora is a trained assassin.

Like Black Widow, Gamora was also screwed out of the merchandising. Also, I'm sure her green skin will attract the attentions of one James T. Kirk.

34. For the Avengers, there is no foe more notorious than Ultron.

Yes, he's a living automation and was voiced by James Spader. Still, this is an incredible costume.

Yes, he’s a living automation and was voiced by James Spader. Still, this is an incredible costume.

35. As we know, Spider-Man always has to have his Mary Jane Watson.

Mary Jane wasn't Spider-Man's first love interest or his only one in the comics. But she's the one most associated with him and soon becomes his wife.

Mary Jane wasn’t Spider-Man’s first love interest or his only one in the comics. But she’s the one most associated with him and soon becomes his wife.

36. Here we have Jean Grey and Wolverine sharing a moment at the fireplace.

I guess this is only in Wolverine's dreams. Because I know she's already with Cyclops.

I guess this is only in Wolverine’s dreams. Because I know she’s already with Cyclops.

37. If you need a brutal guy who’s willing to kill, then the Punisher is your man.

The Punisher is a vigilante who employs murder, kidnapping, extortion, coercion, threats of violence, and torture in his war on crime. It's said he was driven into doing such from the deaths of his wife and 2 kids. Nevertheless, the guy is in serious need of therapy.

38. Before the debuts of Luke Cage and Storm, the only black superhero in Marvel was Black Panther.

And no, the guy wasn't named after the Black Panther Party. Rather his name derives from an all-black tank battalion in WWII. But yes, he's a badass.

39. “I let Gwen Stacy die!”

No, Peter, you didn't kill Gwen. You weren't the one who threw her off a bridge. Besides, she probably died from the fall, anyway.

No, Peter, you didn’t kill Gwen. You weren’t the one who threw her off a bridge. Besides, she probably died from the fall, anyway.

40. When it comes to Gambit and Rogue, sometimes they can’t live or live without each other.

While their on-again, off-again romance is said to be rather dysfunctional, both tend to be incredibly messed up people. Maybe that explains why they love each other.

41. Oh, look, a little wasp.

It's a little girl who's dressed like Wasp from the original Avengers. She's not the Avengers movie. But she's in Ant-Man. Also, she can fly as well as shrink, too.

42. As its sentry with all-seeing and all-hearing powers, Heimdall is always on watch for any attacks on Asgard.

In Norse mythology, Heimdall is said to be the whitest of the gods. However, he's among the darkest in the movies since he's played by Idris Elba.

43. Seems like this guy’s going to be a little supersoldier.

However, as of now, he's just a super diaper filler. Still, this is just so adorable to see a baby Captain America.

44. “I am Iron Man. The suit and I are one.”

45. Apparently, Emma is doing some light reading.

A lot of the Emma Frost costumes tend to be rather skimpy. Sure this shows skin, but at least it's tasteful.

48. As far as the X-Men are concerned, Nightcrawler surely has a tail.

Sure he might seem like a demon, but he's said to be a strong Catholic. But he's also kind of a trickster as well as very entertaining. Played by Alan Cumming in the films.

51. While DC has Aquaman, Marvel has Namor the Sub-Mariner.

Sub-Mariner is the son of a sea captain and a princess from Atlantis. Though good natured, he can have a short fuse. And he does tend to misguidedly attack people on land, too.

52. Among the X-Men, the youngest among them is Kitty Pryde.

The pet she has with her is a little dragon called Lockheed. Don't ask me where she got it from.

53. Looks like Peter Parker decided to dress in layers today.

Well, he's wearing his Spider-Man suit over civilian garb. But underneath that Spidey suit is a regular teenage boy with regular teenage problems.

54. The Scarlet Witch can certainly cast her own spell.

And she seems to be rather popular among cosplayers as well. Maybe it's because of her outfit. I don't know because I found a lot of people dressed up as her on Pinterest.

55. Of course, while the Scarlet Witch is lovely, she only has eyes for Vision.

56. If you like the old-school Wolverine from the 1990s, you might like this guy.

I'm sure some people might prefer this Wolverine which was his standard look for a long time. But I prefer the Hugh Jackman version for obvious reasons.

57. Didn’t know that Venom was an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.

He's not. He's just using the agent in question as a human host. It's said to be among the greatest threats to humanity in Marvel along with Magneto, Dr. Doom, and Red Skull.

59. Seems like Nightcrawler and Mystique are having a good time together.

Mystique is also his biological mother who abandoned him when he was a baby. Then again, knowing what Mystique did to Rogue it was probably for the best.

60. Apparently, She-Hulk is through with rule books.

As Jennifer Walters, she's a cousin of Bruce Banner and only has a milder form of his condition. So when she's in Hulk mode, she retains most of her personality. But that doesn't stop her from becoming a force to be reckoned with if enraged.

63. Here’s your neighborhood Spider-Man facing off against Doctor Octopus.

Doctor Octopus is one of the best known villains of Spider-Man. He's a mad scientist who's obsessed with proving his own genius and destroying Spidey. Perhaps in order to prove his genius, he should quit trying to destroy him.

65. Of course, you can’t forget Thor and Loki without mentioning their folks.

This is the Asgardian family. In mythology, Loki is Thor's step-uncle and Sif is his wife. However, Sif doesn't get much characterization though.

68. No, that’s not a female Wolverine. That’s X-23.

Well, she's a clone of Wolverine and was created to be a perfect killing machine. However, this doesn't make sense to me because clones have to be the same gender as the original.

71. As an Asgardian, Sif is a goddess not to be messed with.

In Norse mythology, she is only known as Thor's wife and having golden hair. In the Marvel movies, she's neither with Thor and has dark hair.

73. In the second Captain America, Cap and Black Widow fight the Winter Soldier together.

Apparently, Black Widow seems to be passed around as a love interest in the Avengers. In the first one, she was with Hawkeye. In Winter Soldier, she was with Cap. And in Ultron, she was with Hulk, the worst idea of a superhero boyfriend ever.

DC Comics Treats from Wayne Manor

Posted by historymaniacmegan on

TheDarkKnight1186

When it comes to comic book superhero movies, the food doesn’t get a lot of attention. But if the superhero is very rich, then there will probably be a party at some point in the film. And let’s just say, parties almost always have to have food. For instance, while Bruce Wayne normally spends nights fighting crime in Gotham City as Batman, there are some nights when he can’t put on his bat suit. Because as one Gotham City’s richest and leading citizens, Bruce Wayne has a lot of social obligations he can’t avoid. Hosting parties at Wayne Manor as well as attending them elsewhere is among them. After all, Bruce Wayne is very much a public figure in Gotham City and that’s what public figures do. And figuring that Bruce Wayne spends a lot of time in his batcave and fighting bad guys, you probably can assume he doesn’t have much role in the party planning. So I can guess that the party planning job most likely goes to Alfred or someone else. Nevertheless, somehow there’s some party or another in almost every Batman film. Still, outside the movies, it’s not unusual for many fans to have superhero themed parties with such themed treats. A lot of these tend to pertain to young boys but not always. Besides, while superhero fans tend to be stereotyped as male nerds, they tend to have a lot of mainstream popularity spanning over generations since the 1940s. How else could you ever explain why The Dark Knight did so well at the box office? Sure the nerds might be the ones reading the comic books. But it’s not just them watching the movies, TV shows, or cartoons. So for your reading pleasure, I give you a treasure trove of DC Comics inspired treats. And be sure to catch Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice which comes out in theaters on Friday, March 25. Also, most of these will be Batman and Superman by the way.

  1. No Batman themed party should ever be without a cake of the Caped Crusader.
I have to admit that's an awesome cake that any big fan would want. I'm sure it' professionally made and doesn't come cheap.

21. Nothing makes the ultimate Superman party like these cupcakes.

Not only do they have blue, yellow, and red filling, they also have green stuff on them. That's supposed to be Kryptonite. So Superman probably can't eat these, even if it's his own birthday.

23. At a super barbecue, you can’t go wrong with these Superman cheeseburgers.

Nevertheless, these require you to put American cheese on the burger since you'll need to use ketchup with the details. At my house, my parents usually put the cheese on the buns.

25. Wonder what’s inside this Riddler cake? Perhaps I’ll never know.

Seems to me that the Riddler is a very popular Batman villain, next to the Joker and Harley Quinn, of course. Still, like how the hat has a question mark.

Justice League Inspired DC Comics Craft Projects

While the popularity of comic book superheroes leads to lots of commercialism and merchandise, there are plenty of fans who prefer to make their own gear. Sure superheroes and crafts might not seem to go together since superheroes are associated with guys and crafts with women. However, we should note that there are plenty of female superhero fans out there as you’ve probably seen in my DC Comics costume post. And there are plenty of guys who do craft projects. After all, wood and metal work also counts as crafts. Besides, a lot of comic book superhero fans do make their own costumes, male or female. Nevertheless, if you go on Pinterest or Etsy, you’re bound to find all kinds of superhero craft projects. Some of them might be made by parents for children. Some might be made by adult fans for themselves or to sell on Etsy. And some might be made by repressed art majors or people with too much time on their hands. But whatever the case, there are people who make these things out of love for their comic book superheroes. So for your reading pleasure, I give you a super assortment of super DC Comics crafts. Note that many of these aren’t licensed by Time Warner. A lot of these will pertain to Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman by the way.

  1. Carry your things while in Gotham City with this Harley Quinn purse.
