Crocheted Superhero, Video Game & Comic Characters

A fun yarn from Geeky Hooker and the mad geniuses at Bored Panda.

“A not-so-long time ago (5 years ago), in a galaxy not-so-far away (Milky Way, Earth, Houston TX), I taught myself how to crochet. I tinkered around, starting out with lumpy generic little dolls, until I got bored and started making lumpy little superheroes instead.

From there things got a little out of control, and it got to a point where if it was geeky and fun, I’d try to make it out of yarn. Captain America? Done! Chewbacca? Got it. Frida Kahlo, for no reason other than the fact that I REALLY wanted an excuse to put a tiny little unibrow on her? Done and done. Five years later, I’ve amassed a collection of little characters ranging in categories from comic book characters to sci-fi monsters to stuff in the all-encompassing “I just freaking felt like making it” category.

Sometimes I keep the little guys for myself, but most of the time I give them away, and every year I make a bunch to scatter around San Diego Comic-Con for people to find. I tag them with my contact info, and then I cross my fingers and hope that they’ll be given good homes. So far I’ve had a good turnout of adoptions, and hopefully they’ll eventually take over the world, one goofy little sack of yarn at a time!”

Popular Comic Characters Reimagined As Dragons

By Lynton Levengood and the mad geniuses at Bored Panda.

“I love drawing dragons, they are so much fun. Recently with the release of Deadpool some of my friend requested to see a Deadpool dragon. I liked the idea and painted it and it was fun so I decided to do another, and another. I’m at 10 now and I will definitely do some more!

I have recently started a patreon account so if you would like to see more of my work and support the creation of many new dragons make sure you check it out and perhaps become a patron.”

Superheroes’ Part-Time Jobs: Because Saving the World Doesn’t Pay Well

from http://www.boredpanda.com/part-time-job-superheroes-flying-mouse-365/

Besides saving the world, they are just like us, they need money for living, food, drink, daily needs. I think the most expensive things are their beautiful costumes.

Unfortunately, they don’t get payed for saving the world. With their very unique ability, they definitely can get a part-time job for their living.
