This He-Man costume, assembled by The Frisky, is pretty cool. By the power of Greyskull!
14 of the Top 50 Showrunners of 2012, as selected by The Hollywood Reporter, are women. (Indiewire)

Astronomers have gotten a picture of a glowing red spiral star system that looks an awful lot like the time vortex from Doctor Who. (New Scientist)

Yesterday, the 50th anniversary of the publication of of Maurice Sendak‘s The Nutshell Library, The Awl published this tribute to the woman behind many of the children’s books we all grew up with: Superstar editor Ursula Nordstrom. Yay, editors!

Putting a heart buckle on He-Man? Bit effeminate, wouldn’t you say?

That Superman pic makes my day. Somebody show it to Zack Snyder.
