Fanboy Hall of Shame Redux

citizenprime.jpg

So I'm canoodling on the couch with my boyfriend before his trip to Vancouver (Bastard!), thinking there was no way I could top last week's fanboy hall of shame, nor could find anything as low as last week's cosplay antics (Seriously, on the couch, with my bf, this is what I think about; god, I'm such a geek). But no fear, true believer! This week's entry is a hit in both categories!

A couple of nights a week, this valley business executive named Jim (I agreed to conceal his last name) dresses up as his invented superhero character, and patrols valley streets. When you meet him, you can't help but notice his sincere enthusiasm and his incredibly well-crafted costume. Half embarrased, he admits the outfit cost about 4,000 dollars to create. It includes a silk cape, leather mask, and a steel-plated upper body shield designed by a professional armor maker.
o_0 Really? Seriously? Are you kidding or joking? But it's okay, cause HE HAS A FRAKKING MYSPACE PAGE!! Complete with videos.
In case Prime ever does see an actual crime or violence, his car is equipped with an electric stun gun, a police baton and a bean bag stun gun among other non-lethal gadgets. He's never used them and says he hopes he never has to.
Thanks boing boing. [boing boing]

It's so cool to make fun of people different than you! 'Fanboy Hall Of Shame' is a great way to show how intolerance is prevalent even among gays. Good job!

Oh please. We're not promoting hatred towards the guy, but we are poking fun at him. Just like we poke fun at a lot of other people and things. Knock it off and grow a thicker skin.

"Oh Lois, you SO don't want to know!"

Comic of the Week

Review: Avengers: The Children's Crusade #1 I literally clapped my hands together and said OhMyGodYesssss when the friendly staff member at my regular shop held this book out to hand it to me. Allan Heinberg and Jim Cheung finally - finally - return to this title with a nine issue limited series. I will spare you paragraphs of pontification and cut to the chase: it's not just good, it's the best thing Marvel has going, period. Read on for the pontification and petty quibbles!...
