It’s just TROUBLE. Aloof, androgynous and ever-meddling middle child of The Endless, Desire plays its siblings like chess pieces. Its lair is a towering body that stands so tall you can never see the whole thing. It stands naked, with its heart flayed open - a fitting home for one so insidious. Even under the skin of the most powerful being, Desire is coursing through veins, kicking back, waiting for its chance to shake things up.</p> <p class="p1"><a href="http://society6.com/RoganJosh/Light-my-Desire_Print" target="_blank">Prints available at Society6.</a></p></p>http://www.modhero.com/post/24064523160http://www.modhero.com/post/24064523160Wed, 30 May 2012 11:10:00 -0400desireendlesssandmancomicsDC comicsvertigohorrorfantasyillustrationpop artvectormodherorogan joshcigarettefirelove<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3tbtbizmk1qb0joho1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>I enjoy coffee.

They have a color unity and symmetry to their costumes that says “team”, “family” “action” and “science!” That said, they can be a little square. I’d like to think that if they went to some late-night Inhuman soiree on the moon they wouldn’t wear the same outfits they wore to the Negative Zone collecting slime samples. Still, the clothes have got to be as action-ready as they are fun. You know as soon as _______________ (the longtime enemy of ______________) shows up, there’s gonna be stretching, flaming, clobbering, and …er.. invisbling?</p>http://www.modhero.com/post/18453546685http://www.modhero.com/post/18453546685Tue, 28 Feb 2012 16:34:09 -0500fantastic fourthe thinginvisble womanreed richardsjohnny stormhuman torchmister fantasticmarvelcomicscostume designmodherorogan josh<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzsvxtXZLA1qb0joho1_r1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>NORMAN OSBORN<br/>The clothes make the man. That’s what they say. But what if a man makes his own clothes? And what if those clothes suggest deep sociopathic tendencies? Does that mean they are making the man who wears them crazy? Or was he crazy just to make them? Does it all devolve into some snake-eating-its-tail cycle of madness and murder? We’re talking about Norman Osborn, right? Then the answer is YES. He be crazy.
