Magneto Was Right T-Shirts!

You know you want one.

Someone has finally gone through the trouble of making them, and you can order one here.

It's really too bad that they only come in white, though. I'd prefer black, or the same red one that Quentin wears.



Now if only someone would make some of those Xavier's school blazers to finish the ensemble...

That is so cool...

Wow -- that's just brilliant! A Red & Black one would be excellent, but the white one's still really cool.

The Antipopper store is class, isn't it? First there was 'Onward Britney' and now this!

i don't think cafepress.com offers the opportunity to make red t-shirts.

This would be so wonderful in Black or Red, I agree.... =)

Maybe you could dye it red.

And, I suppose we'd have to order quickly before the cease and desist orders go up, right?

Thanks, Flux. I ordered one earlier today. Will wash my Green Lantern shirt as soon as this arrives.

Anyone else going to be QQ for halloween?

Way ahead of you Bio K9, at this point QQ is some sort of unhealthy obsession. I have tried to find the vest online to no avail. I have a friend willing to make the vest, now I need to invest in wool. I've actually screen printed a shirt with the Omega gang sign, it's a red shirt and I used the words "Quire Nation" and the sign below that.

I refuse to believe that GM would butcher QQ like that, "I just wanted to change things... and be famous or something" Yeah. Right.

Does anyone else think that QQ looks a bit like punk rock Dame Edna Everidge in that picture? All he needs are some chandelier earrings.

"Quire Nation"... giggle.

This is awesome. Brilliant. although I wish the Mags shirts were red too. Nice inclusion of the Omega gang logo/sigil on the back. And those 'Onward Britney' shirts are hysterical! I would love to see a Britney shirt done as a Russian Communist poster, like those covers for Millar's RED SON.

Holy shit. I can't believe it! (The Britney Marxist poster)

Don't mention it.

By the way, at Antipopper HQ we're such cheap bastards -- I can't be bothered actually buying one myself, so I don't know how the t-shirts actually turn out. And unfortunately, different colours aren't supported. Chesed, did you end up dyeing yours? Is there a printed white background to the design that dye would fuck with? When I get my shit together perhaps Queer Granny will have me so you can do it all yourselves.

Somebody suggested dying shirts red, so I plan on it, once i get it... 6-10 business days, so I'll let you know

Anyone know what the rights deal with Cafe Press is, since I'd love to see someone make up some Invisibles shirts, and I'd assume if Magneto is fair game, nobody would object to the use of some Invisibles iconography, or at least not object long enough for anyone who wants one to order one.
 
 
Aertho
21:10 / 17.09.03
I'm sure once Marvel finds out about the shirts, they'll say STOP!... so why don't you come up with a King Mob shirt or something, submit it to Cafe Press, tell us when Cafe Press is ready to acept orders, and we'll all dash for the week an a half that they'll be available. I'd love a shirt with the poster from Satanstorm on it.

Quentin Quire >>> King Mob

Ok, the shirt arrived today. If you were thinking about dying it red you can forget it, the images aren't silkscreen, they're iron on which is probably why a white T is the only option.

That said, it doesn't look bad. You can only tell its not silkscreen if you touch the iron on area or look at the edges of the transfer really closely.

The shirt itself is a Hanes Beefy T which isn't the thickest shirt ever but it isn't exactly flimsy undershirt material either.

I'll let you know how the image holds up in the wash later, if anyones interested.

Can't someone get the graphic from Antipopper, print it out and silkscreen it onto a few red shirts? It looks like a pretty easy screen. I've already ordered mine, so I feel pretty okay about doing one the free way. Of couse I can't silk screen. Surely there's at least one Barbelither who can, though.

From what I understand, Antipopper is working on doing the silkscreening/custom t-shirt thing, and already had plans to make the design downloadable. That's what I'm holding out for. I don't ever wear white, so even though the Magneto and Britney shirts are awesome, I can't justify spending the money on something I know I'll never wear.
 
 
El Gato Was Right: the t-shirt
21:19 / 21.09.03
I think Kegboy was dead on about where this thread should be going.

I would like to see some more "______ was right" graphics paired with "Surely we can be trusted to express ourselves without hurting anyone" word bubbles.

O-kay people, go get clever.

"El Gato Was Right" T-shirts comin', Bio, I feel it...

Flux speaks the truth: I've now made the original t-shirt free for download. Enjoy.

Aha, so now I can make one with just the Omega Gang logo...

has anyone tried dying their white shirts yet? I'm interested in seeing if they look completely wrecked or if the red works well.
