The Man of Steel is Elderly and Jewish

I know you are kinda wondering what I'm getting at.  Well, this past Sunday I attended a 75th Birthday Party for Superman at the Center for Jewish History.  That's right, the very first issue of Action Comics came out in June of 1938.  Wowza.

Holy Frak! We Survived Another Year!!!

We're two years old today. Where did the time go? This year has been one heck of a ride. It's been full of ups and downs, and through it all, we've had you, the people who support us. To celebrate, I made this:

And our Giveaway just got better!

So, we announced last week that we are giving away a 3-day pass to New York Comic Con. That's an awesome prize and a lot of you have already entered.


But then, one of our friends and followers @MisterJackal  (he is awesome!) decided to make our Anniversary Giveaway twice as good.  That's right, we are now giving two winners each a 3-day pass to New York Comic Con. 


To let the awesomeness of this wash over you, we are also extending the contest until this Friday, Sept. 23 at midnight.


So, go now and enter! Then tell your friends. Then tell your family, co-workers, the guy at the deli and the person next to you on the bus.


Sorry but Travel and Lodging are not included.  Just the 3-day ticket.  One per winner.  US residents only so it gets to them on time.  Contest ends September 23th.

Holy Crap, it's our 1 Year Anniversary!

Wow, the past year has gone so fast. It's hard to believe that a year ago, we were sitting in Getsuyobi's living room writing our first post. Now, we have reached geeks on 6 continents (We still need Antarctica! Damn penguins!) and in 109 countries!


Looking back, it is amazing to see everything that has happened in the past year. I don't think that Wysefyre and I had any idea what we were getting into when we started IGH.  Really, I mean that.  Despite the craziness, I am so happy that we jumped in feet first.  IGH has been a fantastic ride with cool prizes.  This blog has brought more to me than I ever thought possible. Because of this, I have made friends in all corners of world, done things I never would have dreamed of, and got to share it with all of you.


Thank you all for taking part of this crazy journey that we are on. I hope that you have had as much fun as we have, and that you will stick with us. Make sure that you tell us what you want to see. We love to try new things, share our experiences and always hearing from fans.


Going forward, we have a lot in the works, especially about New York Comic Con. We hope that you will join us, which is why one lucky fan will win a 3-day pass for NYCC (thanks to those awesome peeps at NYCC)!  NYCC is the East Coast home for everything geeky and fun!  This year they will be featuring the minds behind the DC 52!  This fan will also get a chance to meet us (if they want, we aren't picky). Check out our facebook page for the entry form.

Video Friday! 5/6/11

Hello everyone! I have taken control of Video Friday again. The battle between me and Wilderowens was long and difficult but in the end, I was victorious! Bwuahahahaha! Let us begin. 


Free Comic Book Day is tomorrow. It is one of my favorite days because I love getting exposed to new books and it's free! If you are unfamiliar with this awesome day, here's a video talking about why it is so great. Thanks JC for sending it to me.





This is just neat. It's a gorgeous mutation of Batman's logo over the years. Until this, I hadn't realized just how many incarnations the logo had.

This totally made me melt. Most females know that many males are forgetful about things like anniversaries. So it's usually a surprise (a nice one) when the male not only remembers but goes above and beyond and does something heartfelt and wonderfully geeky. I'm probably completely nuts for saying this but I would definitely take this over a box of chocolates any day... and I really love chocolate.

May 4th was Star Wars Day! A day to celebrate all that is Star Wars, good and bad. In my search for Star Wars videos, I came across this video done by Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. All I could think was how did I miss it? Enjoy!





Finally, do you know what came out today? Thor! It's finally here and I am super excited for it. It looks like it will be a great film. But you know who has reservations about it? Conan O'Brien. He's a little concerned that the wrong guy was cast as Thor. Here's what he has to say.





There you have it, this week's Video Friday. Remember, if you find something you think should be featured here, send it to insertgeekhere@gmail.com.
