WoW - Wallpaper of the Week - extra

James Marsters

Look, it's James Marsters (previously featured)! You know how old he is? 51! Seriously, whatever he's using, I want some of that. These are somewhat older photos, but even in more recent stuff, he doesn't look that different. Genes, clean living, whatever you're doing, James, don't stop! More to see at Superherofan and Tumblr.

James Marsters (previously featured) turns 50 today. Wow. How time flies. See how fast over Superherofan way.

Site banner

Ack, ack, ack! I have been remiss, but have changed the site banner. And yes, as far as I can tell, that's an authentic photo of Misha. One of the few shirtless photos of him I've been able to find. If that is genuine, I don't know why he doesn't go shirtless all over the place.

Ah, Smallville, how we will miss thee

So last week was the series finale of Smallville. I was kind of disappointed. The whole Darkseid storyline wrap up felt very deus-ex-machina. And couldn't they have given a closeup of Welling, head to toe, in the Superman duds? Yet I was still crying at the end, 'cause I'm a big old sap, and it was neat to finally see him become Superman.

I wonder if there'll ever be another show with such shameless exploitation of such a variety of hot guys? Maybe 90210, if it lasts longer. It's amazing that Smallville wasn't a Spelling show, since Charmed was neck-and-neck in that department.

The cast has inspired many a wallpaper here. In fact, the launch of this blog (two years ago yesterday) was of one of them. So I thought I'd do an homage. Also fear not, I'll be doing more wallpapers in the future of guys from the show, since it's a goldmine (no, not that kind) that's far from being exhausted. Thank you, WB/CW, for keeping it on for 10 years. Yep, the stories got crappier as the series continued, but the guys, oh, the guys...

So here are a few, in alphabetical order:

Jensen Ackles (Jason Teague)


Chris Carmack (Geoff Johns)


Justin Hartley (Green Arrow)


James Marsters (Brainiac)


Jesse Metcalfe (Van McNulty)


Cory Monteith (Frat Cowboy)


Alan Ritchson (Aquaman)


Kyle Schmid (Sebastian Kane)


Michael Shanks (Hawkman)


Ian Somerhalder (Adam Knight)


Tom Welling (Clark Kent)


Paul Wesley (Lucas Luthor)


Kevin Zegers (Seth Nelson)

WoW - Wallpaper of the Week

Remember earlier how I mentioned my fixation on a certain vampire? Well, here's a couple of reasons. I give you Spike from the Buffy the Vampire Slayer TV series, played by the man with the amazing cheekbones, James Marsters. And one of his shining moments from Angel.

I'm usually good at spotting put-on accents, and I swear I thought he was British. Was I shocked to find he was a California boy, born and raised. I've heard some folks say his British accent isn't that good, but it fooled me, and that takes doing, if I do say so myself. It's weird now seeing him talk "American". Though when he appeared on Smallville, he still seemed to have some remnants. Maybe he'd done it so long, it took a while to clear out of his system. He slipped back into it more recently when he guested on Torchwood, where he demonstrated a whole new level of sexy. Just goes to show, he's hot in any language. Plus he turns 47 next month. Which also shows that sexy comes in all ages too.
