I'm a Total Geek

Jeez, I have been on a blogging rampage this week. I really feel like it needs some lighter material on it, though. Sooo, this is about my geeky side.

I am a total geek. I can hardly contain myself when it comes to comics, comic book movies, super powers, and action figures (back in the day, at least). I spent the majority of my childhood pretending I was an X Men character. I was usually Iceman, Cyclops, or Gambit if we had to play “by the rules” but if I could swing it, I would always have the powers that Jean Grey or Storm had, but shift my character into a male. I never wanted to be the girl.

Growing up I watched so many TV shows having to do with super heroes. I watched: X Men, Fantastic Four, Batman, Super Man, The Justice League, Teen Titans, anything with super powers. It was/is my obsession. (Let me just give a quick shout out for how EXCITED I am about the Green Lantern and X Men: First Class movies to come out! Also heard that I am Number Four was disappointing but I am so excited to see it.)

Although I always noticed that the girls’ powers were so much cooler in Marvel (which is my favorite company). What is up with that? Wolverine is so overrated I can’t even handle it, and all of the other macho men in the comics who just tore people apart, were dumb too.

Coolest Guys in Marvel:

- Magneto

- Iceman

- Havok

- Gambit

- The Human Torch

- Thor

And yeah, that is about it.

Coolest Girls in Marvel:

- Jean Grey

- Storm

- Rouge (Kinda like a man, but she could suck lives out of people. Badass)

- Emma Frost

- Psylocke

- Phoenix

- Scarlet Witch

- Mystique

- Songbird

- Blink

- Magma

- Invisible Woman was alright… Cooler than stretching your body out)

These are just the big names too! You can go into the comics and see all of the random characters that come in quickly and leave before they are too popular.

Anyhow, if you didn’t believe me before I started ranting about something that is completely unimportant in life, then you should know now. I am a huge geek when it comes to superheroes and I don’t think it will ever go away. It is better living in the fantasy world than the real world, anyway, right?
