With all the awesome comic books and graphic novels being released recently, it’s easy to let your affections fall to the wayside. “Not now honey, I’m reading Batman!” has oft echoed around the world. Well, win back your love’s affection with an awesome, geeky gift on February 14th – you didn’t forget, did you?

True Love Necklace
Harken back to the days of kitschy, classic comics with earth shattering kisses and rampant misogyny with this “true love” necklace made from an actual page from a vintage comic book. Diamonds are boring, anyway.
There you have it: the quintessential list of awesome gifts to get your geeky other half. You don’t need to thank me – I peruse Etsy like a mad woman anyway.
Molly McIsaac eats too much ice cream and sings long songs about superheroes to her dog. You can follow her weirdness on twitter or at her personal blog, the Geeky Peacock.
Problem could be on my end, but none of the “Buy Here” links work.
And fixed lol
Oh I need Batman panties
the guy in the Batman underoos… his thing looks suspicious.
I have two pairs of Batman underoos. Two. From different ladies. Neither of which I talk to anymore. The underoos still work though.
