    robotic rockers


    This is kind of like the old Chuck E Cheese Pizza Time Theatre band, except no puppets and the instruments actually play themselves. Plus, they're called The Trons which is way cool.

    the colors of the DC universe


    Over on the Colour Lover's Blog they did a little breakdown of the color palettes of various DCU characters. This mixes my love of comics with my love of color theory, which I'll freely admit is a fairly nerdish combo.

    robogami


    ok, it's not really a robot, as it's really tele-operated by a surgeon, but the cool thing is that the piece of paper is smaller than the diameter of a penny!

    programmed to humiliate, then assimilate


    I love the deadly serious narration in this commercial. "It exists only to humiliate and vanquish anyone who challenges it."

    But the question remains as to how can you possibly further humiliate someone sad enough to need a $700 robot to play ping pong with?

    stay green while saving some



    Now you can lug your books, groceries and assorted sundries about town while simultaneously showing your great taste in comics. I've already ordered a sample of this double-sided tote bag and can tell you that it's of the highest quality and well worth the $12.99 price tag. Check it out and all the other Hijinx tchotchkes over at our Cafe Press store. We don't make any money on these products, but we'd love to see you buy some!

    update
    After much teeth-knashing and number crunching, it's been decided that every time you purchase a graphic novel, and remember to bring your official Hijinx tote, you'll earn an extra 1% on every bookclub purchase every single time you bring your bag! Offer good for life of the owner or life of the bag. It's our way of encouraging you to use less disposable bags and more pork-themed eco-totes!

    super cgi short


    This is a cool 5 minute short featuring Spider-Man, Iron Man and the Hulk. Not sure where it came from, but I like it!
