Chad Roberts could have rested on his X-Wing beard laurels, but he’s no slouch. He’s back and web er, beard slinging.
Wonder what’s next. Bat Signal Beard?

You won’t be able to see the suit in action until The Amazing Spider-Man 2 hits theaters next year, but here’s a sneak peek at what it will look like. There are some pretty noticeable changes with the eyes becoming white and getting larger, the texture changing and the spider looking more tarantula and less black widow. Even the web pattern is different with more web-like lines rather than the straight lines of the prior version.

We all know Spider-Man has impressive superpowers, and his costume is built to maximize his skills. Computer science grad student Victor Mateevitsi took inspiraton from the superhero and created a suit that embodies Spidey-Sense.
The suit, which is actually called “SpiderSense”, enables you to feel whether objects or people are close by. In other words, it allows the wearer to navigate with his or her eyes closed. Neat and useful. Here’s how it works according to Discovery.com:
The suit is composed of small, robotic arms encased in microphone-equipped modules attached to one’s body. The mics send out and receive ultrasonic reflections from objects within one’s environment. If the ultrasound detects a person or thing moving closer to the mic, the robotic arms respond by putting pressure on the corresponding body section from wherever the “threat” is coming.
Mateevitsi thinks his design can help cyclists be more aware while navigating through traffic, and he hopes it will be helpful for visually impaired people. Spider-Man would approve.
It’s fine to have plain white and black socks on hand for certain occasions, but I recommend keeping your sock drawer full of wacky designs for everyday wear. Seriously, looking down at your feet and catching a glimpse of Batman can turn a frustrating day into a happy one.
Superhero Stuff has your sock needs covered with new styles featuring Batman and Robin, Spider-Man, Superman, and The Avengers.

Spider-Man has to own more than one costume, and you know that one night while he was out and about saving people, Mary Jane tried one of the spares on just out of curiosity. The red and blue combo really works for redheads.

Three-year-old Kieran wanted “to have a Spider-Man” for Christmas. His dad told this to a friend, and that friend dressed like Santa and brought a wrapped Spider-Man with him. Kieran unwraps his present and acts way cooler than I would in the same situation. Spidey shows him moves, hangs out, and sings with him. It’s the best. And one of my favorite parts is that Spidey wears red Chucks to complete his outfit.

Eeyore always seemed like such a mild-mannered little Winnie the Pooh character. Who knew that in his spare time he was hanging out with Spider-Man slinging webs and still losing his tail? Maybe that is the reason why he is so depressed—the burden of all that responsibility. Excels-Eeyore!
