Here’s some art for everyone who’s ever wondered what superheroes do on their days off. This is the second installment in a series of prints from Gregoire Guillemin that imagine what superheroes do when they’re not being super. It’s kind of just like what the rest of us do, but with a snazzier wardrobe.

Peter Parker made out pretty okay when he got bit by a radioactive spider. He kept his good looks and gained strength, speed, the ability to climb walls, and more. But what if the transition of traits was more scientifically accurate? Fox’s ADHD took a closer (and grosser) look at just how terrifying an actual man who’s like a spider would be. Extra eyes, hairs, and uh stuff.
Watch the hilarious video after the break and keep in mind it’s not so much for the kids.
Sixteen-year old Bowe Cleveland was critically injured last week when a classmate opened fire at Taft High School in California. He was put in a medically-induced coma by doctors who treated severe damage to his chest and abdomen. He is recovering now, but remains in critical condition.
Cleveland is also a big fan of Spider-Man, and classmates at Taft have taken to wearing Spidey shirts as a show of support. Stan Lee got wind of all this, and decided to deliver a special message of his own. Check it out after the break.
We only ever see them when they’re saving the day and fighting the bad guys, but superheroes have to do normal everyday stuff, too. Here’s the proof as artist Greg Guillemin gives us Batman brushing his teeth, Spider-Man devouring a burger and Wonder Woman stuffing her bra. They’re all available as prints so you can decorate your living room with the everyday lives of your favorite heros.

These AT-AT bookends from Gentle Giant are awesome. Period. They are cast from polystone and hand-painted. You can use them to hold up books, but you can also display them as a stand alone pieces. And if the Imperial Walker isn’t your thing, you can opt for a Venom design instead. He might be a dangerous villain, but he’ll keep your precious books from falling to the floor.
You can pre-order these bookends now; both are slated for a Q2 2013 release.
Check out the Venom bookend after the break.
Every superhero movie leaves us with unanswered questions. Sometimes it’s on purpose, but sometimes it’s for no reason at all. Those times are the ones that make fans want to pull their hair out in frustration. Just imagine how Spider-Man would feel if Batman pointed out the obvious over a nice cup of coffee. Actually, you don’t have to imagine anything -just watch this video and keep an eye out for Stan Lee at the end.

Give me posable action figures like this over LEGO minifigs any day of the week. This Spider-Man design was constructed by the same guy behind the posable Batman figure, and Spidey is equally awesome. Even though Mmccooey was pleased with his previous designs, he’s added more joints so that the toy is even more dynamic. It has 48 points of articulation! He also pointed out he got a better camera, and you can definitely tell these photos are crisper.
If you like this design, go vote for it on Cuusoo and help it become an actual product.

It’s official. Sony has announced that there will finally be a Metal Gear Solid movie. The announcement came at the Metal Gear Anniversary event in Tokyo, Japan and included the news that Spider-Man producer Avi Arad will be a part of the project. Arad spoke to the audience about his struggle to bring comics to the big screen and how ”video games are the comic books of today.” Creator Hideo Kojima will executive produce on the movie, but as yet there has been no announcement made about a director.
