What’s Inside Batman’s Utility Belt?

We all know about Batman’s utility belt. Basically it has everything that a Batman needs to get out of any situation. It’s a lot like Doctor Who’s Sonic Screwdriver. But what exactly has the Dark Knight carried in his belt over the years? Artist Kevin Tong clues us in with this cool infographic.

It is by no means complete, but it’s a fun look at what some of the Movie and TV versions of Batman have kept in the utility belt. If you have room for shark repellent you can carry just about anything else you need.

Vespa: Superhero Editions

A world where superheroes evolved to ride around on Vespas? You’re looking at it. These fun illustrations by Istanbul, Turkey based artist Mete Eraydın May even convince you that this is the only mode of transport for comic book heroes.

These colorful rides look pretty sweet. Let’s hope that the villains are sticking to Vespas as well, otherwise our heroes are going to have a hard time catching up.

Clever Doctor Who Boxed Papercraft Toys

These clever papercraft toys from Etsy seller Dougy74design are awesome. They even come in their own papercraft boxes. They will cost you just $32. and you can choose from the 4th Doctor, the 10th Doctor, Princess Leia, Boba Fett, Harry potter and more.

I just love the look of these guys and the packaging just seals the deal. I have to get a few of these for my collection before they all sell out. Hopefully the seller will create some more. I would request a Dalek to accompany the good Doctors.

TARDIS Birthday Card Really Is Bigger On The Inside

Behance user Cindy Graf created this excellent TARDIS birthday card. And it really is bigger on the inside. It folds down to 6″ X 9″ and even has a matching envelope with the Doctor and a character that she made. This would be the best birthday card ever. Man, I wish it was my birthday.

Basically this card transforms into the TARDIS, complete with a 10th Doctor, the console room, the pool, the library… It probably even has the eye of harmony in there somewhere too. Way to think outside of the box Cindy. Or did you think inside of the box? Anyway, good job. It’s awesome.

Dalek Chess Set: Check-Exterminate!

Deviantart user Slythenperior rendered this awesome 3D Dalek Chess set that I for one, would love to own. It’s perfect and shiny and captures the spirit of the Daleks so well. Check-Mate? More like Check-Exterminate!

I’ve included some of his other Dalek designs below. If I could have all of these wonderful toys I would be perfectly content to play as the bad guys all day and let someone else use the Doctor figures.

These Avengers-Themed Cereals Are Mischievously Delicious!

Start your morning right with a well balanced breakfast. Okay, these sugary cereals are anything but well balanced, but they are mischievously delicious. Just like with the cereals we grew up with, the artwork and the toys are the best part. I want the Infinity Gauntlet and Thor’s hammer.

Artists Bamboota and Elliot Fernandez certainly know their breakfast cereals. Some of these are available on T-shirts here.

Star Wars Christmas Cards

Deviantart user McQuade has several neat Star Wars Christmas cards that are getting us in the mood for a Star Wars Christmas. These colorful and humorous designs will crack you up and make you feel all warm and fuzzy.

Even Salacious B. Crumb looks like he’s having a good time. I think my favorite is Luke getting the Wampa action figure and telling the story of his encounter. The artist combines Christmas and Star Wars together perfectly. I may have to go and listen to Christmas In The Stars now.

Concept Art From Neill Blomkamp’s Elysium

Check out this batch of concept art from writer/director Neill Blomkamp’s Elysium. The story revolves around a factory worker whose destiny is to make his way into a man-made space station that is a utopia. Most of humanity lives on Earth. They are basically the lower class. The Elite live on Elysium, a space-station with all the luxuries and medical technology that are denied the other citizens.

It’s been a while since I saw this one, but the movie had it’s share of brilliant moments. It felt like an old Sci-Fi novel. Seeing this concept art makes me want to watch it all over again.

Star Wars Rebels Imperial Propaganda Posters

After Revenge of the Sith, the Empire is on the rise. But it can not conquer just an iron fist alone. It needs to win the hearts and minds of the Imperial citizens to recruit them to the cause. That’s why the Star Wars: Rebels team came up with propaganda posters for the Empire.

These posters were being handed out at San Diego Comic-Con earlier this year and they certainly fit the tone of the show. Of course we love any Propaganda posters around here as long as they are beautiful and menacing. These are!
