A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Take that Damon Wayans!

I love cheesy reinterpretations of pop culture icons and ideals, and this piece by IAM member (and regular modblog commenter), Adam Burdine, is a prime example of just that.

One part movie reference+ one part currently trendy traditional style shark tattoo=  one very rad and creative piece.

    It’s always really nice to see neat tattoos instead of a mutilated penis.

    Street sharks were fucking amazing. I only slightly remember watching the television show, but the action figures are what really had me hooked. I remember playing with their big, flexible jaws in the bathtub. Good times.
