Superman Faces Off Against Gotham City in Amazing Splash Page [Art]
We've linked to Ulises Farinas ("Motro") before, notably for his totally winning art of the Marvel and DC Universes in Lego, but after we saw the latest piece on his Flickr account, we knew we'd have to do it again. In the short comic, Lex Luthor infects Superman with a Starro-based "hypnotic neuro-viral" that forces him to attack Gotham City, where he faces off against the superpowered cast of characters in a totally sweet super-wide splash page that you really need to click through to see in its full, extensive glory. Check it after the jump!
Work~ma to JZ.
I just got back from a sushi lunch, and I'd totally forgotten they have a buy-one-get-one-free deal at lunch time. Semi-free sushi, yay!
On the slightly annoying side, I've had to postpone getting a haircut for the second time in a row. It's only slightly annoying because I'm trading a hair appointment this Saturday for a flight presentation and meeting potential instructors. Even right after a good cut, my hair in no way competes with the prettiness of planes.
Random Image From Yesterday: As I was driving home yesterday, I was stopped at a street light and I saw a large black crow swoop by with a white egg in its beak.
Nature most anvilicious! Crow, symbol of death, carrying egg, symbol of life.
Come
on,
Nature.
lunch was good. company was better.
I went in a store looking for a new bag or wallet on the way back to work. Saw a wallet DISCOUNTED to $120.00. Not leather or large. good gravy crazy.
I hope everyone's day improves and soon!
I've got my first day of the summer class tonight and get to take a half-day PTO (leave at 2:30 since I didn't get in until 10:30) so I can run some errands before school starts at 6:00. I only know of one dry cleaner who will take care of my cross-stitch pieces which is located in the town I used to live in (a few miles away from school), so I'll drop them off today and pick them up next Thursday.
Bah. Just wasted several hours of work trying to debug a .dll - turns out I was calling the wrong .dll.
Attention, drunk people: stay away from this gold-dispensing ATM
Once in a while, while intoxicated, you might end up taking a couple hundred dollars out of the ATM that you really shouldn't have. It's not great, but it's also not the end of the world. But if that ATM could dispense solid gold? Well, that opens the door for much more destructive mistakes.
In (where else?) Abu Dhabi's Emirates Palace, this ATM offers up gold coins up to 10 grams in size with customized deisgns whenever you want. It monitors the daily price of gold and adjusts its rates accordingly, so you know you're paying the proper price. And really, this is very convenient. I can't tell you how many times I've needed a hunk of gold at 1am and just couldn't find a place willing to sell it to me.
