Customizer Sillof (of Sillof’s Workshop) has created some great custom figures and display them on his site. They all pale in comparison to the custom Venture Brother’s figures. The look on the Monarch and Dr. Girlfriend’s faces are perfect. Visit the site and check them out.

Don’t Make Me Angry 2008
Found that image over at ENewsInternational the other day and I thought that it looked awful familiar. I dug out my The Incredible Hulk TV Series DVDs and looked through the intro real quick and turned up these two images.
Kudos go out to Occasional Superheroine for beating me to the punch on posting the relation to the old TV show. I guess they’re really playing the movie as an homage to the TV show, especially since they’re including the “Walking Man” theme. Now, if they’d only include the Disco Version of the Hulk Walking Man theme, there would be no reason not to see the movie.
Iron Man Armor – In Progress
Nice, new photo of Tony Stark (Robery Downey Jr.) building/testing the later version of the Iron Man armor.
With any superhero flick, the beginnings of its success is based on the visuals. Great story has to be there, but if the visuals (or look) is all wrong, fans won’t show up to check the story out.
Every look at Iron Man seems to be visually 100%.
Speaking of Iron Man, you should definitely check out the Iron Man Fan Film by David Guivant that’s currently over on ScreenRant. Featuring a few Iron Man supporting characters and Avengers teammates, it’s amazingly well done and makes me wish there were a real show like that being developed.
Stan Lee – Under the Influence
Evidently there’s an amazing showing happening in Los Angeles at Gallery 1988. Running through February 1st, “Under the Influence: A Tribute to Stan Lee” features artwork inspired by the Marvel Comics creations of Stan Lee. Check out Collider.com for a nice set of photos from the show.
If you like what you see, it might be worth keeping your eyes on the Gallery 1988 store and the G1988 Crazy4Cult site, as they’ve got tons of great art for sale and it wouldn’t surprise me if some of the Marvel stuff eventually shows up there.
UPDATED:Here’s a blog that has great, large, and clear photos of most of the work that’s in the exhibit. Stan Lee Tribute Artwork.
Multiple Versions of IE on Win XP
Multiple IE is a great little free program that lets you run multiple versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer along with version 7 of Internet Explorer.
The previous version I used to check IE6 used a Virtual PC and was a memory hog. This method worked perfectly and much faster and lets you test all the way back to Internet Explorer 3 (if you so desire).
