We can be heroes, forever and ever (Part 6)...

Anniversary Avengers

This is Giant Man, the second alter ego of Hank Pym.

Hanks was Ant-Man when the Avengers were founded. But after The Hulk left, Hank felt the team needed more physical power. So in issue 2, he stopped using the Pym Particles to shrink and used them to grow. He was played, in the Marvel Universe, by Paul Rudd, even though he still goes by the name Ant-Man (Scott Lang).

POLT

If I were a hero, I'd be Martin Luther (Part 2440).....

Superhero Anydays

Don't know the artist (although they do great work) and it shows the Earth-1 Hawkman against his nemesis, the Shadow Thief.

********************

And today we've got a cute lil twink cosplayer doing Robin.

POLT

Where To Put It?

And so where does this sexy hunk belong? Fetching Faces? Shirtless Mondays? Tooshie Tuesdays?

POLT

It's so cool, to be uncool (Part 596)...

What's Cool?

Well you'll never be as cool as this French artist's album cover, showing him in a...County and Western kind of place, with two...ladies in cropped topped leopardskin (who really shouldn't be) and heels.

The translation is something like New Songbook of Songs and Gags!

I really have no idea what kind of music this is, but I'm not gonna lie, I rather curious!

POLT

Rita Hayworth, gave good face (Part 728)....

Fetching Faces

I don't know why this cutie is openmouthed smiling, I have my suspicions with the way he's laying there, but nonetheless, this makes me smile. He just looks so joyful.

POLT

Check this out, real quick, don't know if everybody know (Part 3633)...

Check This Out!

From one of my favorite movies EVER.

Maitre D': You're Abe Froman?

Ferris: That's right. I'm Abe Froman

Maitre D': The Sausage King of Chicago?

Ferris: [caught off-guard] Uh yeah, that's me.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off...one of the only movies (Star Wars and Xanadu are the other two) that I saw more than once in a theater in my youth.

POLT

The back of your hand, somewhere on my behind (Part 668)...

Tooshie Tuesdays

POLT

If I were a hero, I'd be Martin Luther (Part 2439)....

Superhero Anydays

Today, by Howard Porter, we have the lineup of the reorganized Justice League, when Grant Morrison took over writing it circa 2000. With his plots and Porters art, it was an outstanding run.

Its a reworking of the original 7 founders back when the JLA first formed in 1960. Clockwise from upper right: Martian Manhunter, Green Lantern, The Flash, Aquaman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and Superman in the middle.

*******************

And today we also have a triple shot of the same guy doing three version of DC's superhero Static!

Superhero Anydays

Don't know the artist, but I like his work...even if it a bit cartoony, I still like it. And it shows all the heroes who were on the Super Friends over it's various incarnations through the years.

I'm gonna do roughly, very roughly, clockwise from upper right:

Hawkgirl, Rima The Jungle Girl, Robin, Dr. Martin Stein's head (he was half of Firestorm), Green Lantern, El Dorado, Black Vulcan, Apache Chief, Hawkman, Green Arrow, Samuri, Firestorm (the body of Ronnie Raymond), Batman, Solovar (the gorilla), Plastic Man, Gleek, Wonder Dog, Marvin< Wenty, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Storm (Aquaman's giant seahorse steed), Aquaman, Cyborg and in the middle Superman!

Hawkgirl, Green Lantern, Black Lightning, Wonder Woman, Superman, Green Arrow, Batman, Vixen, Black Canary, Red Tornado
