The Dude’s High 5s: Top 5 Sidekicks.
We all are the heroes of our own stories. So what does that make our friends? Our loyal sidekicks of course. But if they are the heroes of their own stories, does that make us their sidekicks? It’s a bit confusing. So today’s High 5 is a salute to the sidekicks and second fiddles out there that don’t have identity issues. They are there to support our lovable protagonists and put their own interests aside for the sake of their friend’s goals. So here we go, these are the people I want riding shotgun if I have to step up and save the world … or solve a crime … or find a way to get reasonable prices on Red Sox tickets (If I even wanted to see a 5th place team in person).
Cosplay: Batman’s New Anti-Bro TALON Haunts Up Comic Conventions
Yes, I may have just forged the phrase “anti-bro” to describe someone decidedly not your bro, but that is not what is important here. Check out Talon, the monster-child of Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo, haunting not just the pages of the relaunched Batman, but also comic conventions everywhere.

Cyeah! DC has to be loving the tidal that is sloshing around their ankles over their announcement of a prominent character of theirs being gay in the New 52. Here’s some more information regarding the character, who hasn’t been introduced into the New 52. Yet.
Cosplay: POISON IVY Has You Looking At Her Chest Lettuce. (Chest Lettuce? WTF?)
Man that pun made so much sense because uh poison ivy is green and so is lettuce and wait they’re both vegetables except fuck no they’re not. Ah, whatever. Just look at the cosplay and leave me alone. The glory is cosplayed by drummerina. Photographed by Edoardo del Gaudio.
MOUNTAIN DEW Tie-In With ‘DARK KNIGHT RISES’ Is My Heart Attack Dream.
I’ve always kept it to myself, a linger feeling that Batman could kick more ass if he was hopped up on the Dew. Everything kicks more ass when you’re jittering on the Dew. Now Pepsi Corporation Pigs and Dark Knight Rises Marketing Swine have made this mash-up of my geek dreams come true.
WATCH: Batman Tries Out For ‘AVENGERS’, Is A Bit Raw For Their Palate.
With Avengers destroying box office records, it’s only natural that Batman tries to swagger up to their rodeo. However as this video indicates, the good man isn’t cut out for the team. A bit rough around the edges, you see. Plus he swears a lot and slaps around Robin. Not sure which of those truly disqualified him, or if it was a cumulative effort.
First Look: Ben Templesmith’s Batman For DC’s Digital-First Series. It’s Hot.
I’ve never bought a comic book on my (girlfriend’s) iPad, but Ben Templesmith may just get me to do so. The talented duder has dropped a sneak peak into his interpretation of the Goddamn Bat-Man for DC’s digital-first Batty anthology and its stunning.
1950s GREASER BATMAN Is Too Good To Be True.
Denis Medri has come up with this sexy alt-take on the Goddamn Batman. Imagine, if you will! A 1950s where Batman didn’t brood and stomp around ignoring therapy and his friends. Instead he tooled around in cars and generally made your ovaries hurt.

WATCH: Hire Batman For A Birthday Party, Get A Serious F**king Downer
I get it Bruce, I get it. You’re an unhappy dude. Your parents were mowed down by some junkie and at some point your dumb ass fell into a well or some shit. There’s no need to be rolling up to a child’s birthday party and spraying your malaise all over them. Or spraying anything all over them, for that matter. Cheer up.
