“Still” is kind of an poorly chosen adverb here, since my desire to be a super hero has only increased with age. I spent a solid hour the other night reading about Hell Cat’s back story – she’s got a fascinating history! She started out as a character in romance comics in the 1940’s then became a super hero later on.
I ♥ comic books, web design, video games, road trips, thrift stores and old books.
I make unique Art Journals featuring repurposed and rescued vintage book covers. Each journal is bound by hand and completely one-of-a-kind. Inside every Art Journal you’ll discover an inspiring mixture of colors, textures and patterns that coordinate with the cover: 100 hand-cut pages of vintage and modern paper, authentic vintage book pages and other ephemera.

I didn’t learn until I was in college about all the other cultures, and I should have learned that in the first grade. A first grader should understand that his or her culture isn’t a rational invention; that there are thousands of other cultures and they all work pretty well; that all cultures function on faith rather than truth; that there are lots of alternatives to our own society. Cultural relativism is defensible and attractive. It’s also a source of hope. It means we don’t have to continue this way if we don’t like it.Kurt Vonnegut (via cielito-lindo)
Marvel Universe Heroes Leggings, $26.50, Hot Topic
A couple days ago, Hot Topic also had a pair of Batman leggings available for pre-order (which they’ve removed from the site since), however these Marvel leggings are pretty dope. I hope they release some more comic designs for leggings in the near future!
Here’s a sneak peek at a new project I’ve been working on… Geometric Necklaces made from book cover pieces! I’ve got a few things to tweak in order to make these sturdy enough to sell, but I’m super happy with how this prototype came out and have been wearing this one around myself. I’m hoping to have a batch of these in my Etsy shop within the next week or so. :)
