Let Batman guard your wealth

Low Lai Chow Contributor

By Low Lai Chow in New Products on Saturday 19 May 2012

So, that Batman guy. He fights crime, zips around in a Batmobile and lives the high-flying life as billionaire Bruce Wayne when he’s not all caped up. No reason why he can’t guard our hard-earned money as well. The Batman money clip by Think Geek — essentially a matte black rubberised batarang that folds — will see that you never lose these cash wads in a fist fight.

Horror illustrations by Suehiro Maruo

Quan Yeomans Reader Find

By Quan Yeomans in New Illustration on Wednesday 14 December 2011

Ultra Gash Inferno is one of those short manga collections that really stuck with me over the years. Think Chinese Propaganda art meets Bataille’s Story of the Eye.

By Bridget Barnett in New Trends on Monday 24 October 2011

My sister is a huge advocate for sustainable living and lectures me for using the plastic bags in fruit and veg aisle of the supermarket. Is this reminder to be green annoying? Yes, every time. When the reminder comes from an adorable eco-conscious polar bear it’s a different story.
