It’s not always acceptable to show your love of superheros at work. Even on Casual Friday, your Captain America tee might be a bit too casual. These earrings are the perfect solution. They proudly declare your allegiance to the hero of your choice, but so subtly that your boss is sure to be appeased. Discs measure just 1/4″ in diameter and die-cuts are 1/4″ x 3/8″ so they’re small enough to wear to the office any day.

Last week we saw the city of Seattle threatened by one Rex Velvet. He swore he’d had enough of would-be superhero Phoenix Jones and promised to rid the city of this heroic nuisance. Apparently, he didn’t receive an appropriate response from Jones so he has issued a second challenge, and this time he’s coming for Phoenix in a DeLorean. So, Seattle has an evil villain who wears a bowler, eye-patch and a snazzy mustache while driving a DeLorean. I’m moving there to be his minion.

I think most of us were pretty disappointed when Wonder Woman didn’t make it back to television. It’s one of those things that we might have loved or maybe hated, but not getting to see was the worst. You can’t make the show happen, but you can take a look at these stunning images of Sarah Scott in some gorgeous Wonder Woman costumes. This photo shoot is the work of Superhero Photography by Adam Jay. He’s considering a fan film, so check out his facebook page and show your support for the idea.

Since there are folks like Phoenix Jones who dress up as superheroes and become would-be vigilantes, it was just a matter of time before we got a genuine evil villain. Enter the nefarious, mustached, Rex Velvet. He aims to stir up trouble in the fair city of Seattle, drinking fiery drinks and throwing his bowler around like Oddjob. He’s had quite enough of Phoenix Jones and is determined take back Seattle for evil. I’ll take him seriously when he has a secret lair in a volcano.

Real caped crusaders are walking the streets of America’s cities, and the New York Times took notice. This particular trio (Red Voltage, Asylum, Nihilist) can be found in Salt Lake City; they are part of the Black Monday Society. The group is made up of people who are regular folk by day and costumed patrollers by night—and they’re not alone.

They prowl the night in Boston, in San Francisco, in Milwaukee, in Minneapolis, even as far away as Australia. Whether they are making the world safer or just weirder remains an open question.

Some go out armed with gear like mace, pepper spray or police batons; others say they carry only cellphones, aiming to be eyes and ears for the police, who in most cities, including Salt Lake City, are keeping a wary distance.

It sounds like a Neighborhood Watch but with added spandex. However, if you’ve been following the saga of Phoenix Jones, you’ll know that there can be consequences to becoming a costumed vigilante.

Even though I don’t spend as much time as I would like in the kitchen, I can’t stop buying aprons. I have a handful that I rotate between on a whim. The aprons by Bethany Sew and Sew are going to make my collection grow. Her functional apron designs are inspired by comics and video games. Green Lantern, Princess Peach, Harley Quinn, and more characters are inspirations. My particular favorite was a custom Dark Phoenix apron complete with a diagonal hip sash! Brilliant! One of her aprons might just hang in my kitchen looking pretty rather than actually getting splattered with grease.

If the Amazing Invincible Captain Wolvclopisher Man had Wonder Woman’s hypnotic breasts, he would really be a force to contend with.
