From Comics Alliance:
Following on the heels of their widely viewed (SFW) "Batman XXX" porn parody trailer, Vivid Entertainment announced today that they are launching an entire superhero-themed porn imprint called Vivid-Superhero, which will parody other famous superhero characters including Marvel and DC A-listers like Superman, Spider-Man, Wonder Woman, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, and even the non-Big Two hero Green Hornet.From the press release:
"The parodies under this new imprint will pay tribute to the world's most popular comic heroes," said Steven Hirsch, Founder/Co-chairman of Vivid. "[Lead Director] Axel [Braun] already started pre-production on a parody of Superman, which will be followed by those of The Green Hornet, Spider-Man, Wonder Woman, Captain America, Thor, and The Incredible Hulk. We made the decision to create the imprint after working with Axel on "Batman XXX: A Porn Parody", an Axel Braun Productions movie to be distributed by Vivid. Axel truly did an amazing job with it, and we agreed that together we could mine the really rich treasure of superheroes and have a lot of fun doing it."From me -- holy shit I can't believe it's taken until 2010 for someone to make superhero/comics porn on a regular basis. I know Japan's years ahead of us in porn for nerds, but they were doing this shit back in the '80s. Only now did someone in the American porn industry realze that the Venn diagram of "nerds who enjoy comics" and "lonely men who enjoy pornography" overlaps a great deal? For fuck's sake, there's currently a character called Batwoman who is a lesbian -- and that's at DC, not in a porn movie! What other clues did you pornographers need? Madness!

Madness? Seriously? I'm assuming this is unfortunate phrasing or something.

Yes, I am sure Rob, whom everyone knows is a raging homophobe, is saying that lesbians are madness, and not the superhero porn. (in case you can't tell, that's sarcasm.) In case you get your jollies being offended by everything, my apologies for not letting you enjoy this site in your own way.

More basic rolling of the eyes at bad copy than an imagined anti-homosexual agenda.

To be fair, There have been pornos with comic book hero themes. It's just that pornos always happened to be half-assed (no pun intended) productions at best. Only recently have production values enetred into the industry where someone is going to do a batman or star trek porno and actually try to make it look good.
And the fact that I feel I know enough about this to comment has made me very sad, so I'm going off to go cry now.

great, yet another reason to never leave the house.
Grewsome replied to Irv:
They make porn for cellphones now.
Though I'm not sure there are many folks who want to watch a dude fapping.
That is one of those niches of porn that exists as well.
There's even a niche of gay porn featuring straight(ish) guys watching straight porn being taped for gay guys. That is the Madness my friends,that is true madness.

How lame must Ironman feel. He has to wear a battle suit to keep up in tug-o-war with the real superheroes.
G. I. Schmoe replied to toxic:
Oh I doubt that,since he's getting a spectacular view of meta-human sideboob. LOL
The Yellow Dart replied to toxic:
...and for those of you keeping score at home... yes, Iron Man is indeed wearing swim trunks OVER his armor.
Kay replied to The Yellow Dart:
I hadn't noticed, but now that you pointed it out, it is now my favorite thing I have seen all damn day.

I can't believe I'm admitting this, but my first thought when I read that it was a Batman themed porno was, "I wonder if Scarecrow is in it?"
My second thought was, "Wait. That could all go very badly." Does that make everything better?

First- I hope the hulk movie is CGI I don't know why
Secondly- if they make a Spiderwoman with Jessica Drew costume it is over for me
Joseph J. Finn said:
I hope Vivid enjoys being sued into oblivion by Warner Brothers and Disney over this; not over the parodies, but over the use of the term "superhero," as DC & Marvel own that term jointly.
Kaoy replied to Joseph J. Finn:
Honestly, that is a real threat. They are protected by the parody bits of the copyright law, but if DC or Marvel decided to show their fangs, that could very well be the loophole they use.
longbowhunter said:
Yeah...this is SO not going to happen. They got away with doing a spoof of the 60's Batman because even DC and Fox cant figure out who owns what when it comes to the Adam West show. But doing a porno version of Superman? Its already been tried and DC sued the hell out of the company doing it-so much so that the porno producers had to go through and scratch out the S-shield on every frame of film they had already shot. Parody and fair use allows for quite a bit,except when it is used to defame or de-value the existing property....which porno definitely does(sadly). And lets not forgt that Disney owns the Marvel Universe now...if disneys legal team wants to make it illegal for you to be naked in your own shower,they're the ones who could make it happen. If any of these flicks make it to the market,they'll be instant collectors items...which is why I'm buying every one!!!
Bazooka Joe replied to longbowhunter:
I've wondered about this for some time. If the owners of the original copyrights can sue over a porn parody, then why haven't studios done that already over parodies of non-superhero material? There are dozens of porn parodies of TV shows already on the market, and no one seems to care. Why will Marvel and DC be any different? And if they do care, can they be bought off by offering Stan Lee a cameo as a copier repairman, school janitor, or pizza delivery guy?

Is... is Tigra wearing a bathing suit with MORE material than her actual bikini get up?
KaiserX said:
The thing is that... these movies might actually be better than other "official" releases.
C'mon, Vivid can surely make a MUCH better catwoman movie!!
Furious George replied to KaiserX:
Troma Studios could make a better Catwoman movie. But at least Vivid would be honest about the T&A.
demoncat said:
the studios and Dc and marvel could sue to stop the things from being made but they would wind up being told by the court that the things fall under Parody which is protected under free speech even porn. as long as they do not get so far they do a x-men or worse a howard the duck porno.

Well DVD Tuesday just got a lot more interesting

Is Spider-Man going to make a web of jizz?
lou-bert vs. q-bert replied to smashpro1:
If Vivid is parodying the first Spider-Movie, I wonder what their take on the upside-down-in-the-rain kissing scene will be?
TrapJaw replied to smashpro1:
Actually, this was sort of done in the parody movie Spiderbabe where Spiderbabe (played by Misty Mundae) shot "webbing" out of her, er, um, well, you know...
.
Here's the trailer:

If they make an Avengers porno featuring Hercules, Beast and Wolverine in a 3-way, i'm going to have some very crispy bedsheets!
Jim North said:
Wow. A Green Hornet porno.
Just wow.
TheSpacePope said:
I thinks it's funny how on that marvel image you have Hawkeye Mockingbird, Wonderman, Scarlet Witch, US Agent and Iron Man (wearing swim trunks over the armor) going against Thor, Hercules, She Hulk and Cap. Like Iron man's team stands a chance. That's probably why cap's team is smiling like a bunch of dicks.

The Tick XXX. You'd buy it, you know you would.
I'll be holding out for The Legion of Substitute Heroes XXX, myself.

So now Greg Land can trace O-faces from superhero themed porn. Great. Is that an improvement or is that worse? I can't even tell anymore.

"For fuck's sake, there's currently a character called Batwoman who is a lesbian -- and that's at DC, not in a porn movie! Madness."
I'm far from the most politically correct, and sadly not a lesbian myself, but why make the connection between lesbians and porn? Being a lesbian is instantly pornographic? Not only that but porn for male pleasure? Of course DC and the press seemed to sadly almost market her in such a titillating way.
I guess it makes me most upset because Batwoman's an amazing character that DC has totally screwed up. She's had amazing creators create wonderful books with her, but never seems to get decent support. So I'm a bit sore as a fan from that.
Well, I guess the male comic book fans are as bad with the fam slash and lesbianism as the fangirls are with their slash and guy love. I guess most of are are no better than the fans calling for Steve / Tony or Dick / Wally.
Though to be fair, I think the gay porn industry should jump on it. Gay up Batman and Superman. Let the fan girls, and fanboys, have their gay jollies too. If I can get Lexi Bell as Batgirl lezzin it up with Tori Black's Catwoman (which I hope they toss in), then let our gay loving brothers and sisters have theirs.

Kaoy replied to Xenos:
No, being a lesbian isn't instantly pornographic. Being a red-headed lesbian who spends a vast amount of her time walking the streets in a skin tight c(b?)at-suit and stepping all over men who she refers to as 'scum' certainly would appeal to a fairly large sub-section of men.
Kaoy replied to Kaoy:
Ah, and need I make reference to her high heels and the existence of the term 'Bat-nipples'?

I think everyone is missing the important questions here: Is Lou Ferrigno gonna be in the Hulk xxx? And if so, in what capacity?

How is the side with Thor and She-Hulk not winning the tug?

Women have been writing superhero porn for years now.

I'm imagining Iron Man wearing that get-up behind the counter of "Tony Stark's House of Ribs"
Customer: "How much for 1 Rib?"
Hawaiian Iron Man: "RIB BEAM!"
