Have you found yourself day dreaming about the LEGO versions of Mr. Freeze, Joker’s side-kick Harley Quinn (dressed in disguise as an Arkham Asylum doctor) and/or Poison Ivy? Neither did I, until I saw these LEGO X DC comics collaborations. Announced at Comic Con in San Diego, LEGO took full advantage of the convention’s placement [...]

Tim Maclean "Fragments & Phantoms" exhibit at Subtext Gallery

Subtext Gallery in San Diego is hosting artist Tim Maclean’s first solo show, Fragments & Phantoms, which opened July 14 during Comic Con. The timing makes sense given Maclean’s work plays on fantasy’s invasion of the real world, much like Comic Con itself. Fantasy stems from the mental realm, or as Maclean says, “the place where [...]

Geek-inspired handmade rings, cuff links, earrings & money clips

Anyone who has watched Big Bang Theory will attest to the hotness factor surrounding Kaley Cuoco. A girl that’s tall, beautiful and blonde, but also has the wits to go toe-to-toe with two physicists is a girl that knows the path to my heart. Plus, she rocks a damn good Wonder Woman outfit to boot. [...]

Jessica Bloom shoots the NYCC for LIAS

We were happy to sponsor The Cultyard at this year’s New York Comic-Con this past weekend, as it represented a lot of what we love here at Lost In a Supermarket. Namely art of all types, comics, vinyl toys, world class artists and oh yes — plenty of nerds. Oh-so-many nerds, in oh-so-many packages. Hot [...]

Kid Robot, StrangeCo, Loyal Subjects, tokidoki, Mimobots, Cotton Candy Machine and more invade NYCC

This year at the New York Comic Con a collective called The Cultyard will be taking over a large swathe of the floor and sort of creating their own convention-within-a-convention. The idea being to congregate a certain aesthetic into one condensed location — an aesthetic defined by the artists and brands taking part. These include [...]

One man's perspective of San Diego Comic-Con 2010

The San Diego Comic Con is quite unlike anything you’ve ever experienced before, be thee commoner, X-Man, vampire, mutilated zombie, Star Wars cretin or garden variety fanboy. It is the ne plus ultra Mecca for geeks worldwide — but you don’t need me to tell you that. We attended it last week and had 3 [...]

The director of 300 and Watchmen goes for the celluloid hat trick

Saw the trailer to Sucker Punch at Comic Con this past week and boy does it look like a doozy. Not only have you got Madman’s Holy Movie Trinity involved (samurais, dragons, machine gun-toting females), but it’s actually directed by very capable hands. I am a legitimate fan of Zack Snyder’s, who I had hoped [...]
