It Can't Be All Action All The Time

Following up last week's brilliant Batman vignette, MacLane is back with what I hope will be a long series of super heroes' lighter moments. From enjoying a scotch to watching some TV, it's nice to see these guys getting a little break. 

Batman

I really like this version of Batman from MortalSwordsman. The contouring, color selection and pose-ability are really impressive, with simple broad-stroke shapes and just enough detail to sell it. The bat shaped base completes it, but the head is my favorite part.

Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Batman!

KAPOW! Check out this awesome Batmobile Cuusoo project of the classic 60's Batman. I can't decide what I love the most about this, that it's classic Adam West campiness, the design itself or the fact that it all started with a dad building a Batmobile for his daughter so Robin could ride along too. Regardless I want one, and if you want one too let's all support this project and make it a reality!

"Red"

Builder The Deathly Halliwell is back with another inspired MOC. This time it's both comic book superhero Hellboy, the demon with a heart of gold and razor wit. This almost looks like a hybrid of the classic comic book version and the movie version, and it's brilliant.

I Am Iron Man!

Iron Man has always been my favorite super hero. I didn't read many comics as a kid, but when I did, it was Spiderman or Iron Man. And of course the movies are outstanding (the first is still my favorite, but I always prefer the genesis stories). This rendition of the mark VII armor by mmccooey makes my geek heart soar.

(update, turns out this came out some time ago, but I missed it. It's been reposted with some Photoshop loving'. It still kicks ass)

The Rat

Batman has driven some amazing cars over the years, but you've never seen him in anything this insane. Tiler's quickly becoming one of my favorite car builders. His style is agressive and whimsical at the same time, and his photography is top-notch.

Flash VS Superman

I'd have to say, if it comes to looking through stuff, super strength, being bullet-proof, super breath, and, oh I don't know, FLYING Superman just might have the advantage. But hey, if you want to have a foot race then sure.  

Batman

CustomBRICKS is back again (it's only been a day!) with another remarkable brick-built caricature. There is just something so appealing about a minimalistic approach. The plan is mount this (and others) in shallow shadow boxes, and I think it's brilliant. I wouldn't mind one of these hanging on my wall.

Captain America Vs The Red Skull

Kaboom! Wasn't expecting that were you? The Cap makes his own door in this cool little diorama by Julius No. I love captured action, especially in photos (in real life it's always cool, but a little weird) and the this wall-busting action is excellent. And check out that custom Red Skull figure, nice!

The Comedian

Pate-Keetongu brings us an excellent rendition of the way cool, but ill-fated Comedian from The Watchmen. It appears to be fairly posable, always a challenge with characters. I like the doors as shoulder pads too, clever. The head is the real star of this MOC though, it's excellent.

Defending The City

I'm not sure of the details on this MOC, I think it's a collaborative build but there's no description. I am sure it's friggin' awesome though. It's an epic battle with multiple fights involving several super heroes. There's tons going on here so you'll have to click through and check out some of the closeups. My favorite details are the "o" from the hotel smashing the car and the street damage where Superman is having the smack down put on him (I'm sure he'll win in the end)

Holy Udderly Amazing Batcow!

This seems custom built for BrickCon's theme this year "Pigs vs Cows", but it's actually for Mr. Xenomurphy's super hero contest. Although I trust we'll get to see it in person in Seattle this October, right Dave? Right?
