There’s a sycophant in all of us. Evolutionarily embedded within humanity is the need to groupie out and worship those who have demonstrated skill-sets that vastly outstrip our own. It begins with your deity of choice (or Ayn Rand) and works all the way down to even animals (that eagle that pile-drived that one goat is pretty badass).
The trick to all this is access. Famous people spend a lot of time finding ways to judge non-celebrities because being fawned over is nice, but only when it can give you something. Usually that means opportunities to increase their fame and cash money stores. But you don’t roll like that because you’re an everyday type of dude. That doesn’t mean you can’t have access to their world though. And do it on the cheap. Low-tier celebrities are the way in, and you don’t need to spend a fortune to win their favor.

Some can be pathetic and undeserving of their title while others can be stressful, annoying, psychotically hard, carpal tunnel syndrome inducing bastards that grab you by the balls and say, “Hey…f@#$ you!”. I have encountered many of such monstrosities in my time and, as much as I’d hate to admit it, I have simply given up on a couple occasions and never looked back. So for those who have fought tooth and nail for hours and days on end to defeat these bosses, this list is for you.

Although its roots trace back to 1939 under a different name, Marvel emerged in 1961 and began publishing some of today’s most memorable characters such as The Fantastic Four. Stan Lee, along with other legendary artists such as Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko were hard at work creating the heroes their readers would come to admire for decades to come.

Sometimes a win can come from a near fail. Sometimes it can be just pure win from the beginning…and sometimes it can just spring up from nowhere. Whatever the case may be, there was a whole lot of winning (thanks in no small part to Charlie Sheen) that took place in the last two months. Check out some of the best all compiled nicely together for you.

Being a kid is the best thing in the world. Playing around all day and not having a care in the world are things we take for granted. It isn’t until later in life that we truly realize what we had and how much life seems to suck now that we have responsibility and everything revolves around money. I’ll be turning 21 in May and, although some may say that’s still very young, I’m starting to really make the progression into adult life and realize the care free years of my life are over and it seems like only yesterday.

Comics used to be considered a “nerdy” thing back in the day. They were “uncool” and basically meant you were a loser if you read them religiously but today, they’re all over the place and suddenly the losers are the people who aren’t into them. The world of superheroes and spandex has since expanded into every corner of modern day life. Everything from games and movies to your favourite coffee mug and toothbrush are comic book themed. It’s definitely a good time for comic book lovers.
