I admit that I am a fan of Project Runway. Yes, it is probably one of the least GeekDad-ish shows on television. But there I was watching the premiere show last week. (I can't explain my affection for this show.)
If you are still with me, the show has developed an outlet that is more likely to attract the attention of GeekDads. Tim Gunn, the fashion mentor for the Project Runway contestants, will be featured in a Marvel comic book.
Tim Gunn & Iron Man join forces this September in a special back-up story in Models, INC. #1. Models, INC. is a limited series set in the world of high heels, high drama and high fashion, and features Marvel's Fashionistas Mary Jane Watson, Patsy Walker, Millie the Model and more.
Mr. Gunn becomes an action figure. In "Loaded Gunn," the New York Museum of Fashion is hosting an exhibit of Iron Man's armor. Apparently, Mr. Gunn jumps into Iron Man’s suit of armor to save a fashion exhibition from evildoers.
Look for the special Tim Gunn variant Models INC. in comic stores September 9.
Watch Season 6 of "Project Runway" on Lifetime!
For those of you have not encountered Tim Gunn before, here is a snippet from The Daily Show:
