"An item of nerd envy"

OK, is this cool or what? I mean, in a nerdy comic-booky sort of way.

Plastykgyrl, a member of the (Legion of) Punk Knitters, knitted this scarf for her friend Christopher Bird:



Which is a good lead-in to something I've been meaning to post here... What do you have in your "normal" non-comics-related life (reading, writing, collecting, etc.) that you've added a Legion touch to? I wouldn't include putting artwork on your walls at home, but anything outside is fair game. Some examples:


  • On my home wireless network Sleepnet, my laptop is Computo and my desktop is LSH-HQ.
  • My Palm PDA flashes an Omnicom picture when it starts up and a Legion symbol when it shuts down.
  • You dressed up like a Legionnaire for Halloween.
  • You have various Legion designs as backgrounds for your checks.
  • You own a knitted scarf with Legionnaire Mission Monitor Board symbols.

My laptop is also Computo on my wireless network at home. One desktop is LegionHQ, another is LegionWorld and my TiVo is Omnicom.

On my PSP I rotate backgrounds of the Legion.

When I print my own mailing labels I use either the Legion 'L' or other various Legion images.

My wife and I have t-shirts with an image a friend Photoshopped showing us as Garth and Imra. (Yes I'm lucky enough to have a wife who loves the Legion too.)

I have a stainless steel drinking mug, a hat and notebooks all with the Legion 'L' printed on them.

And for baby gifts in the last year I have given out four sets of onesies and bibs each with the Legion 'L' and Long Live the Legion printed on them.
