Funk's House of Geekery

This is a blog created by a person with too much time on his hands and too much love for geeky hobbies. We love movies, games, comics, books, arranging things into Top 10′s, ranting and other geeky passtimes, and we love being able to share those hobbies with anyone who’d care to listen (and those who don’t care)! Each contributor is here simply because of our passion for the material – feel free to browse our writings, leave a comment and subscribe so you don’t miss the next self-righteous rambling about whether Superman or Batman would win in a fight!

FYI, the answer is Batman. Always Batman.
