The Brooklyn Superhero Supply Store

Brooklyn’s Superhero Supply company is often mistaken for a hardware store, but actually houses shelves of fun things like cans of Courage, Gumption, invisibility paint, and tools to help you scale walls. A mock seriousness to the store, paired with the Willy Wonka-like fantasy world, creates a delightful place to explore and play.

R. Crumb Retrospective Opens Today

Few comic artists get recognized as the real artists they are, especially within their lifetime, so it’s always refreshing when society recognizes such immense talent. Of course, R. Crumb’s talent is hard to ignore. On Friday the Museum of American Illustration at the Society of Illustrators will open their new exhibit, “R. Crumb: Lines Drawn on Paper,” which will run through April 30th and showcase numerous unpublished works by the prolific illustrator. (via Gothamist)
