Geekanerd Spotter: Invincibility Star Street Art

This entire condo complex has an invincibility star! Does that mean that the people who live here will never die, as long as they don't leave their rooms? But what kind of life would that be? Actually that may be a scenario all too familiar to both you and me, dear reader.

And speaking of you, regular readers have certainly noticed by know that our posting schedule and regular features have slowed way down recently - a bit of excusifying after the jump...

The slowdown in production is mainly because I, AHR, am residing outside of NYC for the fall, and accordingly my nerd powers are only operating at about half capacity. You see, LIKE SUPERMAN, I draw my powers from a localized source, in my case the Manhattan/Brooklyn area. I'm currently in Charlotte NC, which has at least one amazing comic store, but sadly not as many amazing nerd events to keep me inspired.



That said, the NYC Weekanerd Event Calendar and our Twitter/Facebook feeds still get updated all the time. Geekanerd proper will still be updated with feature articles, though on a slower schedule for the next few months.

If you have any feedback, holla: tips@geekanerdblog.com

My Brain Just Exploded: Street Artist Brings Portal To Life

Street Artist Posterchild has brought portals and the Weighted Companion Cube into our reality, and it's a good thing this all happened in Toronto because I think if I'd seen it unexpectedly while walking around New York, my thin grasp on what is real and what isn't might be irreversibly shattered. Posterchild is apparently an even bigger nerd than Banksy, as he was also responsible for those awesome Mario Question Blocks you may remember from a few years ago. Dude loves cubes, what can you say?

Lots more pictures and info over at The Torontoist.

Also, fans may want to visit Portal Authority, Geekanerd's insanely popular round-up of the internet's best Portal content.

Geekanerd Spotter: Johnny 5 Is Alive


This geek graf was spotted at the 59th and Lex subway station. Gift Bot 2007 indeed! I think that Wall-e has put Johnny 5 back into the public consciousness.

Geekanerd Spotter: Homer Simpsons As You've Never Seen Him Before

The Simpsons Movie opened just under 72 million last weekend, making it the biggest opening ever for a non-CG animated movie.

That's all very well, but it doesn't erase this image from my mind:


Homer with a human nose. I saw it in a subway station and found it deeply disturbing. Here's a close-up.


Uch...the nose isn't even at the right angle. There are some sick, sick people in this city.
