The folks at ADHD are at it again, this time giving us an anime version of the Steve Urkel fronted sitcom FAMILY MATTERS. And I would binge watch an entire season of this show in one weekend if it actually existed.

The Top 5 Douchebag Heroes from 80s Teen Movies
I did a post a while ago listing The Top 10 Douchebag Villains from 80s Teen Movies and as I was looking back on that list I came to the realization that a lot of times the villains were pretty justified in their awful behavior based on the supposed “hero” of the movies they were featured in. Some of those 80s teen movie heroes were absolutely terrible people who deserved to have their girlfriends stolen, hearts broken or be smacked around a bit. So with that in mind I put together a list of the Top 5 Douchebag Heroes from 80s Teen Movies.

Hey Baby, What’s Your Sign?
I am not a big Zodiac sign fan (aside from thinking the comic book villains of the same name would make perfect bad guys in either the Marvel TV or big screen universe) but I would be lying if I didn’t say I was impressed as all heck by these re-imaginings of the 12 Zodiac signs as horrific looking monsters like my own sign, Capricorn, above. These bad boys are the handiwork of artist Damon Hellanbrand and I would recommend checking out either his own website or his DeviantArt page to see more of his really spiffy concept art.
