If you’ve been following Fashionably Geek, you would know that Converse has been offering some great options for DC Comics fans in their Chuck Taylor All Star line. These fabulous Wonder Woman sneakers come to mind. Now they’ve launched a campaign that allows you to design your own Chuck Taylor DC Comics shoes. Well, mostly.
You can choose from certain customizable parameters to make the shoes uniquely you. The only catch is that as of right now, the designs only include characters from the Batman universe. There are Batman, The Joker, Catwoman, and The Riddler design elements. Those are fantastic choices, but I hope it opens up to include more heroes and villains sometime soon. You can combine available prints featuring the Bat characters with canvas color, emblems, lining, personalized heel strips, and more. The version above was created recently by Comics Alliance and serves as an example of what’s possible.

Low-cut DC Comics logo socks are great for times when wearing knee-high superhero socks with capes might be a little over-the-top.

DC Comics partnered with Japanese designer aimerfeel for their We Love Hero collection, and the result is lots of adorable and sexy underwear and loungewear with nostalgic designs and colors. The line features Golden Age versions of Batman, Superman, Batgirl, and Robin. I like that all designs are available for both sexes. Guys can get pink Batgirl boxer briefs if they feel so inclined. The cuts are comfortable, too. Underoos and hipsters are so much better than only offering thongs, and it doesn’t happen often.

Lois Lane and Superman aren’t together in DC’s New 52, but it’s still a stretch to assume he’d ever end up with Harley Quinn. In real life though, such rules don’t apply. This couple incorporated their affections for the superhero and villain into their wedding but not in the hit-you-over-the-head-with-a-giant-mallet sort of way. There are plenty of ways you can blend your geeky passions with your wedding day, and they chose the subtle route. The wedding colors were red and black, the wedding cake was topped with action figures, the garter belt had the Superman logo, and the engagement ring was based on Harley Quinn’s diamond design. The groomsmen did all wear the “S” logo, but it still managed to be classy.

As you’ve probably heard, DC is rebooting nearly their entire catalog of characters from the ground up—including the costumes.

The hoodies pictured here may be down a human head, but that’s alright because there’s an extra head on the side.

From the product description:
An age-old prophecy foretold the coming of the Blackest Night, and the war of light between the emotional spectrum! The Green Lantern and (yellow) Sinestro Corps are confronted by the Red Lanterns, Agent Orange, the Blue Lanterns, the mysterious Indigo Lanterns, the (violet) Star Sapphires and, ultimately, the Black Lantern Corps. Now, for the first time ever, all of these Power Rings are collected together in one spectacular display!
Apparently, The Blackest Night is an upcoming crossover event from DC comics that “follows Green Lantern: Rebirth and Sinestro Corps War as the third part of a trilogy throughout the Green Lantern comics.” It is scheduled to be released in June of 2009. If you are excited enough about this to drop $230 on metal rings in a light up display base, more power to you.
