Captain Marvel arrives

Makayla McGeeney

No, it’s not Wonder Woman or Black Widow… It’s Marvel Comics’ newest addition to the big screen: Captain Marvel. I have to appreciate the following that these movies have.

While they’re not my go to Friday night flick, when I do watch them they’re action-packed, creatively driven and sprinkled with jokes.

Because Brie Larson’s character Carol Danvers is so new, I couldn’t find many socks to sport in celebration, however, there’s plenty of other Marvel socks to get you excited about the spring reveal of this movie.

Stick with your one true love Captain America or shop a variety on Cartoon Heroes.

Sock of the Week – Deadpool

The pool!!! First, if you haven’t seen the Deadpool movie, go see it! One of the better action hero movies I think, but that is because I’m also a big fan of comedy. These socks have just the right amount of Deadpool, that red so the enemy can’t see ya bleed! These socks seem comfy enough where you could wear them during sports or other activities. These socks are 9.95 (2/11/2017) plus free shipping with Amazon Prime! This seller has quite a few different super hero socks, although Deadpool says he isn’t a super hero, I guess we’ll let that slide since there is free shipping!.

I love me some super hero socks, and these Deadpool ones are close enough. They have a 4.5/5 stars review and look pretty sweet! Let me know what you think!

Sock of the Week – Batman Ankle Socks

This weeks awesome socks are some sweet DC comics ankle socks. They have a pretty good variety in the package, and you get 6 colorful pairs for only 19.97 with free shipping! These socks have Superman, Batman, Robin, the Joker, Wonder woman and Harley Quinn on the tops of the feet. They look pretty awesome and are one of the few variety packs with multiple character socks in them! If you purchase a pair let me know, I’d love to spice up my low cut socks!

Sock of the week: Superman

It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s Superman!!

Superman socks are this weeks awesome sock of the week! As one of the classic superheros, and the release of Man of Steel last June, I felt the need to to recommend these socks. They are pretty awesome and this two pack is a good deal. One pair argyle, one pair with a cape. Can’t be beat at 19.99 total it’s only ten bucks for an awesome pair of super-hero socks!!

Now some quick superman facts!

  • Superman was created by two highschool students in 1933, writer Jerry Siegel and artist Joe Shuster. The two sold Superman to DC comics in 1938 and appeared in his first comic, Action Comic #1 later that year.1
  • Superman has been the star of 8 movies, with many other proposed but failed.2
  • The first Superman cartoon was produced by Paramount Pictures. They created 17 ten minute clips between 1941 and 1943.2

Another super hero sock this week, but this time with a cape! Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na BATMAN!

They also have a few knee-high length ones(Amazon Prime eligable!).  Oh, and batmans sidekick too, Robin.  I might like them a little bit better:

Let me know your thoughts. Do you like the cape? Don’t like the socks in general? Thought they were of lower quality than you’d like? And as always, if you have a pair that you want to recommend, don’t be afraid to email me at chad@awesome-socks.com or let me know in a comment.
