Awesome Antartica sealife pictures
I will admit it, I am as stunned as you are. No, I do not read the site where I found those pictures but the odd link I find occasionally leads me to the Daily Mail online. Oh frak, shut it. At least until you have seen these pictures of frozen life food in Antartica.
‘Few people realise just how rich in biodiversity the Southern Ocean is – even a single trawl can reveal a fascinating array of weird and wonderful creatures as would be seen on a coral reef,’ said BAS research cruise leader Dr David Barnes.
‘These animals are potentially very good indicators of environmental change as many occur in the shallows, which are changing fast, but also in deeper water which will warm much less quickly.’
I don’t think right now you are thinking of fish&chips, are you? Read more
Ultimate Disney Marvel Crossover
Here at frankylicious we do not really report about news. There are already enough sites taking care of that. What we do though is report about cool stuff we find on ‘tinternetz. Cool internet iz cool.
So we passed when the news of Marvel’s acquisition by Disney hit the wires and waited for cool stuff to come out and this is definitely one of those things we have been waiting for: The ultimate Disney Marvel crossover by T Campbell.
Picture stolen without authorization, but THIS, this we consider NEWSWORTHY! And you should go ahead and buy your print fron T Campbell.!

Apple Paris Store in Louvre Opens on Saturday
For those who have never seen an Apple Store from the inside, check out this Flickr Gallery from Le Journal du Geek, who were invited to the press event before Saturday’s opening. If you live in the area, the 5,000 first visitors receive a T-Shirt in good old Apple tradition.
As can be seen in the photos, this is another store with a ‘famous’ glass staircase.
World of the Future Map
Wired Italy published an illustration of the World of The Future based on the Internet. The illustration has been created by Density Design who were really creative for this one and even published an initial sketch.
From left to right are presented the macro-categories formed by the supersturctures, from the most abstract, like policy and infrastructure, to those which concern more closely in the everyday lives, like economy and society. Amid the environment as a meeting point between abstract and current, with new ideas about global geoengineering and translocalism.
Original entry by Density Design, the map in several parts Behance.net and in high res at Flickr (6k pixel wide!). The original sketch at Flickr (with high res version almost 9.5k pixel wide).

The truth is out there.
Superheroes Solve World War II
Deviant art member TOYIB has published his image edit, catapulting some of our most loved loved super heroes in to WWII situations. Although he only upped some pictures so far, the results are impressive and it would be awesome to see even more heroes than just Batman, Spiderman, Superman and Anakin in WWII situations.

Batman at Greenham Airfield in 1944.

James May’s LEGO House Gets Demolished
This will probably make any kid and geek out there cry but it was to be expected. Nobody stepped up to buy it and the by LEGO donated blocks now have been rudely hammered to pieces again. Gone is the house built for James May. Returned are the bricks to a future house life, being donated to charity builds.
Pixar Tattoos, Extremely Cool
Even if when many years younger I wanted to get the Guns ‘n Roses logo as tattoo, generally I tend not to like brand or idol tattoos. We al know how it goes: some day you just won’t like your formers idols anymore or have become the biggest opponent of the brand you used to love, what about that ink then.
But there obviously are exceptions. Pixar is one of those everlasting love stories. Toy Story even more. And this person thought she had to make sure he would not forget her love. Enter ink.
