Supermodel met Superhero in the 2011 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, which aired Tuesday night on CBS. Of all the night's runway looks- which included passion, aquatic, ballet and more- the superhero segment stole our attention.   Nerds across the country squirmed as some of the most beautiful women in the world gave meaning to the term Super Angels. Their outfits did not represent specific famed superheroes, but were merely inspired by the comic book characters. We definitely wouldn't have a problem with these girls fighting crime in next to bare ensembles.  Check out the before and after images below, from concept sketch to final product.  What do you guys think of the Victoria's Secret Supermodels as Superheroes? And because we just can't get enough of Adriana Lima (especially dressed as a superhero)... Check out a full 360-degree view!

Yesterday, DC Comics and Mattel, Inc. announced a new multi-year agreement that will extend their partnership into unprecedented territory for the next several years. Most notably, Mattel will now have access to the complete DC Comics universe, spanning more than a thousand DC superheroes and super villains. Among them, classics like Batman, Superman, Green Lantern and Wonder Woman, along with the more obscure heroes like Aquaman, Green Arrow, Hawkman and Shazam. The deal will also include new toy lines for the long awaited Dark Knight Rises and Man of Steel films, as well as a number of animated series for Cartoon Network. Mattel Vice President Tim Kilpin was understandably excited about the future of the relationship. "We are thrilled to further our long-standing partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products and support the extensive DC Comics portfolio's development. The DC Comics characters are rich in story and we look forward to bringing these popular characters to life through innovative product design."

Of all the comic t shirts that we print, one of our favorites is Axe Cop. So we were delighted by the glowing review Axe Cop received from MTV this week! In a write-up of the new Munchkin Axe Cop card game (to be released next month), MTV declared, “October is Axe Cop Month.” They’ll certainly get no argument here! The hit collaboration between 29-year-old comic artist, Ethan Nicolle, and his 5-year-old brother, Malachai Nicolle, will see its new trade paperback, Axe Cop: Bad Guy Earth, officially hit the shelves next week. And of course, Popfunk currently has a dozen fine Axe Cop shirts that you can’t find elsewhere. August, September, Axe Cop, November, December... Yeah, sounds good to us!

This remixed post is brought to you by The Batman T-Shirt Collection and The Dark Knight T-Shirt Collection at popfunk.com, and Eric Ditzian at MTV News. The Christopher Nolan-directed action flick features the return of Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne and Batman, as well as Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman, and Michael Caine.  Anne Hathaway joins the movie as Catwoman, while Joseph Gordon Levitt takes on the role of John Blake and Tom Hardy as the villainous Bane. The Dark Knight Rises is expected to hit theaters July 2012. You can catch The Dark Knight Rises teaser trailer, which is supposed to debut in front of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2," when it opens on Friday. The teaser poster for the third Batman film installment entitled The Dark Knight Rises shows what appears to be skyscrapers in Batman's hometown of Gotham City crumbling while forming the iconic Batman figure. "There is an ominous air of destruction in the urban environment: The buildings appear to be crumbling, debris raining downward — a stark visual contrast to the film title's single tweak since the previous installment: the addition of the word 'rises'." Soundoff: Will The Dark Knight Rises surpass the success of The Dark Knight? How do you feel about Anne Hathaway entering the cast as Catwoman?
