Superheroes are just like everyone else: they think Nick Jonas is dreamy.

In the same way Alan Moore makes humans into superheroes, Ian Pool makes superheroes into humans. In his glossy set of fantasty-photographs, the Hulk walks the dog, Batman grabs a late-night coffee, Spiderman whizzes in a back alley, and Darth Vader shows us, yes, everybody poops.

Today the rain keeps me indoors, but Pool lets me dive into the fantasy of everyday life. Super-life. 

Take that, Watchmen.

oh brother, I heard the jonas brothers for the first time the other night. Coincidentally it was while sitting in a movie theater waiting to watch the watchmen. It was even worse than I could have ever expected. Blop

I remember first seeing the Jonas Brothers on the cover of Rolling Stone and realizing at a young age I somehow managed to loose relevancy with what the kids are listening to.
