Superheroes Gone Wild

Italian artist Giuseppe Veneziano has opened a controversial show that features superheroes and various loved cartoon characters doing some very human (and disturbing) things.

The show in Pietrasanta, Italy has stirred up controversy due mostly to it’s image of a baby Hitler cuddling up with the Virgin Mary, but it also features several other strange images of beloved characters engaging in destructive (read: awesome) behavior.

Spiderman October Issue Features Gay Couple on Cover

What can’t Spider-Man do? Well, there’s a lot of things he cannot do like run around on eight legs and lay eggs, but that is beside the point.

This October, Spider-Man’s cover will include a kiss between two men. The couple are in the lower right hand quadrant. While it is still a small picture and not as prominent as it could be, it will still be seen as a step forward.
