Wonder Woman doesn’t take crap…
…or more appropriately, some creep trying to grab her just because he’s allegedly good at making deals with Themyscira. I think the Amazons would probably go back into hiding since the West is losing its collective mind given the US … Continue reading
Bill & Ted tour shirt
Remember Bill & Ted’s band? Wyld Stallyns! They were most excellent even though I don’t think they could actually play anything, well. Some Internet T-Shirt vendor had a tour shirt based upon the time periods when they “borrowed” historical figures. … Continue reading
Spaceship! Spaceship! Spaceship!
The cheaper souvenir I bought from Brick Fiesta was this shirt paying tribute to Lego’s 40th anniversary with the Space sets. It’s not Benny though, this astronaut’s helmet is intact. Lego has come a long way. Now the faces have … Continue reading
Courage the Cowardly Dog shirt!
The only shirt I bought at GACC. Finally something with Courage the Cowardly Dog! Couldn’t even find him at Hot Topic of all places.
Latin lesson on a shirt
From one of the best jokes in The Life of Brian, a lesson in properly writing/speaking in Latin, a nightmare language since the verb is at the end of the sentence (usually), nouns have five or six declensions and you can’t … Continue reading
Let my freak flag fly #3
Christmas 1981, my parents bought me the boxed set sequel to the Basic Game…Expert! They didn’t know D&D was divided into two different “brands.” I was more into the Advanced, hardback books and needed the Dungeonmaster’s Guide, but I really didn’t … Continue reading
Green Arrow! On a shirt
My second T-Shirt acquisition from WizWorld. Before he was a poor-man’s Batman via Arrow on the CW, Green Arrow was Batman, Green Lantern and Hawkman’s Liberal foil. I wish DC Comics would bring back the Errol Flynn-influenced look Neal Adams gave … Continue reading
Bob Ross and his Brush Fu!
I am a little tired of all the jokes and kitsch surrounding the Bob Ross revival, this shirt was very funny.
Planet of the Apes shirt!
One horrible habit I have at WizWorld is acquiring cool shirts of franchises I will never see at Hot Topic or find easily online. An upside is retiring other, older, existing shirts which no longer amuse me. This gem is … Continue reading
Let my freak flag fly #2
This artwork by Erol Otus was the cover of my first D&D Basic Set circa 1981. Erol was often someone people really hated because I think he took a more unconventional route. As per this painting: the wizard is a … Continue reading
Let my freak flag fly #1
This incarnation is probably the version of D&D most people around my age remember, the terrible Saturday-morning cartoon. Despite being in high school when it debuted on CBS in 1983, I would make the effort get up and watch it. … Continue reading
Another clever mash-up shirt with The Superfriends
It’s OK, I didn’t get the joke right away either since I have rarely seen the sitcom. I was more thrilled to see Hawkgirl in her Hanna-Barbera incarnation.
Undercover on Rainey Street
In Archer’s case, he’s got something stronger than watered-down Alamo (aka Lone Star) Beer in his hand.
Rick as Bender for Halloween?
Bite my shiny wubba-lubba dub dub bub! Two of animation’s favorite alcoholics mashed up into one funny shirt! Or maybe Bender is really Rick all along since they both have Spanish surnames.
The Trump era boiled down to a shirt
Now offered at Alamo Drafthouses around Austin. I will have to get confirmation with other locations from friends in Dallas and San Francisco. To me, this does sum up the Pillbillies, NASCAR worshippers and Faux News flunkies bringing down America’s … Continue reading
