Please allow me to share with you an animated short by my husband Arnold who’s responsible for 90% of the illustrations you see on Poptastic Tees and all of its related stores. He’s actually a fantasy artist and graphic novelist by profession but he’s  been dabbling in filmmaking and, just recently, animation because he has long been frustrated with the static quality of storytelling through comics.The film is only 4 minutes long although it took him 2 weeks to make it and it features his original character Andong Agimat (in English, Andong of the Talisman) from his graphic novel of ...

I gave my husband the James Bond Ultimate Collector’s Set on his birthday so we’ve been watching an episode each night for the last two weeks (it contains 21 movies in all so we’re about halfway through). Mind you, I’ve never seen a James Bond film in my life, save for Casino Royale and that was only because we were already married when it was in theaters. Naturally we were inspired to come up with this fun parody shirt: ” Chicken, not stirred ” (spoofing the classic catchphrase “Shaken, not...

It’s been a while since I updated you with news about American Idol season 7 finalist Jason Castro (remember him?) Why is that, you ask? Well, we stopped making t-shirt designs for him ever since his management started selling their own official merchandise. It was a good run though. Long time readers of this blog most likely know that two t-shirts we designed in support for Jason were worn on national TV (MTV, to be exact) on two different occasions by former MTV news correspondent John Norris.
