Sharing stuff I've found on the Net:

From Birds of Prey #100 (On sale this week)

So the skinny guard has a hulk-out? I couldn't quite tell.

As for me, I found a not-so-nice muscle man in the pages of The Escapists #5 today. One of the main characters, Denny (who is pretty buff himself), landed in jail. While waiting for bail he saw a massive muscle thug picking on a smaller guy. Let me just say that while the muscle thug was physically hot as hell (never mind that he's a cartoon, dammit!) he was also a racist asshole and, therefore, not as hot as he looked (and he was a cartoon too but what the hell? Sometimes cartoons are hot.)

Maybe it was another guard on patrol...shouldn't the clothes rip if he became that big?

agreatguy6 · #4 November 16th, 2006, 08:55 PM

Sometime in Green Lantern last year or a few months ago there was some thing with this really huge dude. REALLY HOT TOO!!!!!!

I'd really appreciate it if someone could find it!
EDIT: and he wanted to kill GL

I'd never thought I'd find an accompanying video of this pic of bodybuilder Aaron Baker as Batman.

I nominate Samuel L. Jackson as Alfred. No idea who Robin could be.

Yup. He got his tooth knocked out the first panel.

Yachirobi · #6 November 17th, 2006, 07:34 AM

So all the guards are metas? And why is that one lady asking to be knocked senseless?

Damn. Now I have to go read this one. Thanks a lot, O.

<--kidding!

A scene from the upcoming 4-part miniseries Shazam: The Monster Society of Evil written and drawn by Jeff Smith.

ooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh...

I have one of the orriginals, and me liky the look of this one.

omelissokomos · #9 November 27th, 2006, 07:32 PM

Hellboy by Wang Wei of Blizzard Art.

Yachirobi · #10 November 28th, 2006, 08:59 AM

I've seen that Hellboy rendering before and it is gorgeous. I prefer it to even the original Hellboy drawings.

Hulk vs. Superman by Mike Deodato

These two have had a grudge for years.

Yachirobi · #12 December 4th, 2006, 11:29 AM

O, I'll see your Hulk/Superman and raise you a Wolverine.

I found this very hot pin-up of Wolverine by Jack Herbert on the Glass House Graphics site. It reminds me of something by Tom of Finland.

Glass House hosts lots of the popular comic book artists (And so many from Brazil! They're having a renaissance down there.)

Your puny Wolverine is no match for the Hulk! (They've come a long way Wolvie's "first" appearance.)

Seriously though. That was an amazing drawing, Yachi. Thanks.

Yachirobi · #14 December 10th, 2006, 07:27 PM

Wolverine no match for the Hulk? Sure, the Hulk is bigger but he has the brain of a child and his face is ugly as sin (depending on which version of the Hulk he is but let's not digress.)

Here's a fairly normal pic of Wolvie, very Alex Ross-ish, but check of the bicep! DAYUM!

omelissokomos · #15 December 10th, 2006, 11:32 PM

I've always found this pic of Logan pretty hot (and not because the Phoenix is in it).

Wish I knew which photo artist Greg Land sourced the drawing from (as he's notoriously known for). Also wish those fine pecs and abs weren't covered up in that ridiculous yellow costume.

Speaking of costumes, I'm more likely to dress up as Wolvie rather than the Hulk for Halloween since like him I'm only 5'3" tall though nowhere as hairy (thank goodness). Maybe I should change the name of my workout blog. Hehe...

Okay, these characters aren't in comic books and, headwise, they're not that hot but DAMN, what bodies! I wouldn't want to run into them at night, though.

Yachirobi · #19 December 20th, 2006, 08:41 PM

EDIT: I got my links mixed up, but it revealed a link I thought I'd missed!

http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/18620912

A nicely done transformation sequence of Banner into Hulk.

http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/14402074

Now HERE'S a guy who drew himself after a hulk out! Sorry for the mix up!

http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/30807462

And here's the Hulk post change with an intelligent (manga-ish) face and a solemn expression. The hulk is hot when he's drawn with a hansome face rather than the usual Ug-face artists like.

We should consider moving this to pics if we keep this up (and I hope we do.)

From Alek's Christmas Lights & Decorations

I'd be angry too if I were forced to wear that hat.

omelissokomos · #21 January 2nd, 2007, 12:28 AM

Learn about What Wii-Men Want.

The Nintendo Wii may just turn legions of geeks into athletes. (Athle-geeks?)

omelissokomos · #22 January 11th, 2007, 07:24 PM

He ain't huge, but Superboy-Prime in this drawing by Artgerm is imposing nonetheless.

Hmm... I wonder if Superman-Prime ought to be as big as Ultraverse's Prime?

You will probably need an account (its free!) to see them though!

Couldn't you just say, go to Deviantart.com and search for 'Hulk' and you'll find some great art instead of trying to link everything one by one?!

ljobenza · #25 January 13th, 2007, 01:38 PM

Indeed. It's hard to navigate and click through all the links.

BTW you don't need to register in order to view.

Yachirobi · #26 January 13th, 2007, 06:41 PM

Ogre, I won't slam you for trying. In fact, I'll say 'Good job!' for posting all of those links.

However, you can just embed the pics into the post and they'll show up like so...

<object width="450" height="573"><param name="movie" value="http://backend.deviantart.com/embed/view.swf"></param><param name="flashvars" value="id=34410845" /><embed src="http://backend.deviantart.com/embed/view.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="450" flashvars="id=34410845" height="573"></embed></object><br /><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/34410845/">nefars Hulk</a> by ~<a class="u" href="http://dcjosh.deviantart.com/">dcjosh</a> on <a href="http://www.deviantart.com">deviant</a><a href="http://www.deviantart.com">ART</a>

Can everybody see that?

Mad Dog · #27 January 16th, 2007, 07:52 AM

Nope. Sorry.

Yachirobi · #28 January 16th, 2007, 08:04 AM

I know. I got it to work before. Let me mess with it...

ljobenza · #29 January 16th, 2007, 09:08 AM

HTML coding does not work on forums unless enabled by the admin. It uses BBCode.

Musclelove · #30 January 16th, 2007, 09:29 AM

please Ljobenza tell me :where did you find your avatar of MUSCLE CID of ff7 he is soooo hot !

ljobenza · #31 January 16th, 2007, 09:41 AM

PMing me would have been appropriate instead of hijackign this thread but oh well...

There's also Snake there BTW...

I went to Deviantart and searched Hulk there is over 1,500 pictures so I thought I'd link some of the best ones here, I may have over done it a little but at least you wont have to wade from some of the dross to get some decent Hulk eye candy.

I appreciate the effort.

omelissokomos · #34 January 16th, 2007, 06:04 PM

It's amazing how Jeff Smith can make the Big Red Cheese so goddamn sexy with so little lines.

Newsarama.com has an interview with him.

Well, wouldn't ya know it? This guy lost 9 lbs. playing with his Wii. (It'll be some time before we get DDR-like results.)

omelissokomos · #36 January 18th, 2007, 06:09 PM

Sometime I come across the strangest things...

Most probably inspired by Jay Pinkerton's amazing Spider-Man spoof strips (around the Mysterio storyline). Too bad it's the only drawing I've seen of the X3 version of the Juggernaut.

It was funny until he added the word 'faggot' to the mix.

Is this guy gay or homophobic (which means he's [COLOR=Magenta]SUPER GAY x2!!![/COLOR])

sorry, i got carried away...

LOL, I was the one that edited the text into that image. The image itself is c/o a furry artist whose name I'm blanking on.

Thanks. I know a lot of links to kinniku/bara art so don't hesitate to ask me.

Yachirobi · #40 January 21st, 2007, 12:25 AM

1. Ljobenza, Don't hesitate to share! Bara stuff is rare compared to all of those creepy bishonen. Screw them. Gimme some biSEINEN! (If you're not into this stuff then don't bother trying to get that joke.)

2. I found the motherload: http://japanesecomicsforadults.com/index.html

It's all gay porn manga with lots of Jiraiya and some Tagame works too. Almost all of it is untranslated but it's mostly leaning towards muscle men and butch types rather than, again, bishonen. It's awkward reading--I suggest saving the pages and viewing them in your favorite picture viewer--but you will come while reading this, I promise.
