The existence of this makes me double rainbow happy.
Button? Forget that. I want a shirt.
And lo, there was much rejoicing, and much Photoshopping of geeks’ faces, as they desired a rippling six-pack and a flame-haired beauty of their own….
Just don’t post the results on Flickr. Please. Seriously.
Mmmmmm, yes. A shirt would be beyond awesometastic. I would totally buy the shirt and wear it proudly where ever I went.
Wait… Wil’s in the picture, too?
Huh. I’ll be darned.
It’s like looking in a mirror, ain’t it?
OK… we need posters, t-shirts, puzzles, and coasters STAT!!!
Although I am of the breed that actually prefers the geek physique to the rippling muscles and bulging veins, I do have to admit that this is a thing of beauty.
This is one of those occasions where you see something you never knew you wanted, but when you see it you’re not quite sure how you ever lived without it.
I will buy this on any merchandise presented to me.
You’re right — I enjoyed it without context first, then followed your link, watched that, and then enjoyed it again with context. Twice the fun (although I hear a little Scarecrow voice in my head piping “some people go both ways!”)
Wil,
If you could somehow get George Takei to view that image I am sure you will get the now iconic ‘Oh, my!’ out of him.
The sword seems really impractical. I mean, wouldn’t the spikes get caught in your enemy while your enemy’s buddy took you out? It is also more than a little frightening as a phallic symbol. Who would date a man with a sword like that?
yeah that’s ok
Good heavens!
This is totally AWESOME!!! In addition to the t-shirt and poster, I would like it on a skin for my lap top. Thanks
Currently being enjoyed on Fark also http://www.fark.com/cgi/comments.pl?IDLink=5507409&tt=s
Wow…that is made of awesome!
This goes beyond Double Rainbow ATW epicness. It perhaps goes beyond, dare I say, the Triple Dolphin tee shirt? Pure genius.
By the by, I had no idea you were so RIPPED.
I’m having a nosebleed right now. I’m blaming this on a delayed reaction to seeing this picture. My veins were unable to deal with the hotness.
Let me guess…the cover to the historical romance novel Felicia is writing, starring Fawkes and Codex? My, my, Wil, have you been working out? =8->
Wow. Just amazing. Codex = dream girl.
Why is my first thought “I wonder what Anne thinks about this?”
“Dear Hugh Jackman – my abs is sexier than yours.”
Someone is going to find this in the rubble of the post-apocalypse and use to it restart the world’s mythology. I, for one, am glad. All hail the deities of the new world!!!
TOTALLY HAWT!!! I love me some Felicia Day and Wil Wheaton!
“Wil Wheaton: Proud purveyor of Chiseled Man-Nipple since Sometime Last Tuesday.”
It’s like the cover to the best bad romance novel ever. I’m sure the total number of embarrassing Fawkes / Codex fanfic will have mysteriously doubled by morning.
Seriously, Wil? Cawkes? You are such a twelve year old.
My thoughts as well…
This is the fifth level of Inception.
You’re channeling the Old Spice Guy, aren’t you?
*right click, save image as..”wheaton_day_hawt”*
And I thought you wore a muscle shirt.
okay, that’s just creepy.
Ka-Ree-Pee.
I love this-I love that I have a pin of it from Comic-Con. Where shall I put it?
I just have to say Wil-you are looking great as usual, it was a pleasure to see you at Con.
I am so buying this, framing it, and hanging it on the wall in my computer room. Its just so awesome. How much you wanna bet the pegakittycorn is all stretched out sleeping in one of those sunbeams? And I just bet that somewhere off to the right (follow the point of the sword) there is a double rainbow in the distance…
Kindle screensavered!
jiminy Christmas, what a sight! curiously compelling . . .
Holy Moly!
Just wondering if you really have this complete absence of body hair. Not wondering very hard, mind you.
I would totally make a print of this and frame it for my wall.
LOL forever at TeamCawkes.com
I may have to take my friends up on working a booth at Gencon just so I can say hi and get an autograph if I get a print of that painting.
Was the original done in actual paint/oil or is it CG?
Wil,
You need to stop right now, or…
*Grr*
Your feeding my crush on you. Its not funny when I do have long red hair, and similar to Felicia in appearance.
*ultimate sigh*
lol
Perhaps this could be the cover of your short story collection?
I just may have got a geek boner. ew. btw, where were you during the old spice guy auditions?? I’d buy. (like it matters)
I just had to blog about this picture.
Thank you for putting images in my head that had previously gone un-imagined. I will skulk away now…
Painted from life, I gather…*somebody’s been working oooouuuu-uuut!*
I think you forgot to put in the end tag for the bold text or something…
Oh, the awesomeness! THE AWESOMENESS!!!
Can this be the cover for the next DVD? Because that is a keeper in so many ways…
