Best Cosplay of the Day: 1980s WWF Superstars

Derek

wwfstars
The halcyon days of professional wrestling to me were the “Rock-n-Wrestling” days of the 1980s WWF. Guys like Hulk Hogan, Sgt. Slaughter, Iron Sheik and “Macho Man” Randy Savage were in their primes and wrestling was on TV pretty much every day of the week. So it warmed the cockles of my heart to see this group of cosplayers in full old school 80s rassling regalia. Click to see what I am talking about.

Holy Crap! Marvel Has Killed The Hostess Spokesman Spider-Man

Mmmmmm Twinkies
Mmmmmm Twinkies

If you are a comic book reader of a certain age then you have fond memories of the ads for Hostess snacks that used to appear in the comics of the day. Super-heroes would face off against all manner of villains and defeat them by using the sugary goodness of a Twinkie, Ho Ho or fruit pie. All the heroes got in on the act but the most prolific were Batman and Spider-Man. So it was a sad day indeed when I read that Hostess Spidey was going to get deaded as part of this “Spider-Verse” currently crossover running through the Spider-Man books.

Wishful Casting The Supergirl TV Show

Derek

Having been given a full series commitment from CBS, the new SUPERGIRL TV show is now moving onto the casting stage with the announcements of the primary cast members that will be featured on the show. Since this is coming from the same folks that have given us the wonderful ARROW and FLASH shows over on The CW, I am very optimistic about the quality of this series even if I am a bit confused about why it is going to air on CBS instead of The CW. So taking the character casting sheets that have been released I have decided to do my own bit of wishful casting for the show using only veterans of shows that aired on The CW. Because if there is one thing they love at The CW/CBS it’s recycling actors.
