So it turns of that the users of Yahoo! Answers are actually useful. This guy has answered a question that I’ve been wondering about for, well, forever! I’ve always wondered what would happen if some lightsaber wielding Sith took a swipe at Superman. Now I have a logical, well thought out conclusion of what might happen.

Stuff, hug, and play. This is definitely be a better than this Wolverine blowup toy.

Video: Marvel and DC, Keep on Trekkin’

From the guys who make the, “Hi, I’m a Marvel…and I’m a DC“, videos.

With the Summer barely even here yet, Marvel and DC don’t have any big movies lined up, which is a surprise considering last year was a monster Summer with The Dark Knight, Iron Man, and The Incredible Hulk. What else can the Marvel and DC guys do…keep on trekkin’. Or wait for Iron Man 2.

This is actually a pretty good spoof on the Star Trek trailer. Seeing how Angels & Demons just beat Star Trek for the weekend Box Office, maybe they should have spoofed that. Nah, it wouldn’t have been as good.

Super Collection of Superman Logos

Flickr User fengschwing took out all of his Superman action figures, took pictures of them, and then created this amazing image. Now for a little history of Superman’s “S” Shield:

The Superman logo (aka S shield) is the iconic emblem for the fictional superhero Superman. It is also informally referred to as the “S” shield. As a representation of the first superhero, it served as a template for character design decades after Superman’s first appearance. The tradition of wearing a representative symbol on the chest was mimicked by many subsequent superheroes, including Batman, Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, Green Lantern, the Flash and many others. – Wikipedia

DC Comics taking on Marvel Zombies with Zombie Superman?

So if you’re into comic books, I’m sure you’ve heard of Marvel Zombies. It’s probably my most favorite Marvel series. Actually, Marvel Zombies vs Army of Darkness and Marvel Zombies 1 & 2 are my favorites, I haven’t read Marvel Zombies 3 yet.

So in MZ, all the superheroes are, as I’m sure you’ve guessed, zombies. They devour Earth of all humans and move on to other planets searching for more flesh and brains. That’s a pretty lame summary, but I don’t want to spoil it for anybody who hasn’t read it yet.

Well, it looks like DC Comics is starting their “own” zombie spin off. I’m not really a DC guy; sure, I like Batman, I grew up watching Batman cartoons and playing with Batman action figures, but I never read the comics.

DC Comics is calling this series “The Blackest Night”, and they’re calling the zombies “Black Lanterns” for some reason…It’ll probably be a good series, but I’m not sure if I’ll be reading it. The art at the top of the post is Superman as a “Black Lantern”.
