It’s Funny Cause It’s True
The hero we need, not the hero we deserve…or however that line goes.
Let’s give it up to the fine folks at Good Mythical Morning for providing today’s dose of funny.
6 Bug-Themed Heroes You’ve Probably Never Heard Of
Did you ever wonder why the most popular superhero in the world is based on a spider? What’s up with that? You’ve got to admit, that’s one weird premise. Why not make a superhero based on happiness and good cheer? Though that probably wouldn’t sell as well as spiders, because spiders are both scary and awesome. Well good news, blog fans, I decided to take a trip through ‘awesome superheroes land’ and bring you a bunch of other insanely bug-themed superheroes! Because why should Spider-Man have all the fun?

Probably because he’s the best.
But don’t discount these creepy, crawly characters I’ve dug up! You’d be surprised what some people consider suitable superhero material. Join me after the jump for the six buggiest characters in comics!
Our Favorite Supergirl Artist Responds to Her Joining the Red Lanterns
I haven’t decided yet how I feel about Supergirl joining the Red Lanterns, but artist Mike Maihack has a few thoughts!
Why DC Comics isn’t throwing money at this man, I will never know. Can you imagine if these were a back-up strip at the ends of every comic? It would be a stroke of genius.
I May Have to Take Back My Support of Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor
Screen Junkies have hit the nail on the head for why Eisenberg might not be the best choice for Lex Luthor.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 2/1/14
Happy Groundhog’s Day Eve, everybody! Are you all ready for the groundhog to pop his head out of the hole to look for his shadow? Do you international readers celebrate Groundhog’s Day? It sounds terribly American. Nonetheless, it’s happening, and I’m excited. I might even break out my Groundhog’s Day pennant that I don’t actually own.
It also feels like there’s something else important going down this weekend, but I can’t put my finger on it…
At any rate, let’s talk comics! This week, I picked up new issues of Aquaman, Spider-Man and Thor, and decided to take another peek at Red Lanterns. Feels like I haven’t checked in with them in awhile. But all of those titles were blown away by the latest Annual issue of Batman and Robin. Peep your eyes on this one, Robin fans, it might be the greatest Robin love letter we’re ever going to get from DC Comics. It easily wins Comic Book of the Week.
Especially if they kill off Dick Grayson, those meanies!
Comic Reviews: Aquaman #27, Batman and Robin Annual #2, Red Lanterns #27, Superior Spider-Man #26, and Thor: God of Thunder #18.
