Marc and Lee are back to dish on all things geek (sci-fi, fantasy, etc.) and even though the fellows say they aren't romantic, in honor of Valentine's Day they give Angry Puppy a special twist by discussing "geek" love including Willow and Tara on Buffy the Vampire Slayer! Marc and Lee also reveal that Neil Gaiman hates Torchwood and wishes all the characters would die. Now that's not a very nice thing to say on Valentine's Day!

Check it out after the break!

Anthony and Tim, now with less of the girl in the middle

In a continued effort to bring you all that is important in the world of gay entertainment and ensure that you are being spoon-fed images of gorgeous, commoditized manflesh, we present the newly-minted AfterElton Briefs. Following the usual assortment of carefully-selected news items, interested readers can find a refreshing pic of a hot man in underwear after the jump. Yes, we're serious.

• Utterly adorable Australian actor Tim Campbell has confirmed that he and utterly adorable Australian Idol Anthony Callea are indeed an item. Utterly adorable joint kitten adoption/civil ceremony/tandem memoir to follow.

• Out Judas Priest frontman Rob Halpert is encouraging his gay metal-head fans to come out, rock harder.

• Send your own gay Ugly Betty valentine! Because nothing says "I'll Love You Forever" than calling someone "sweet cheeks".

• This underwhelming Valentine's-related gallery of kissing celebrities features a ton of straight couples smooching but not a single man-man romantic kiss, unless you count noted heterosexual kissing straight-as-nails Billy Crystal. Sigh.

• Rent, the Broadway juggernaut slated to close this summer, opened 16 years ago today.

And today's Briefs are brought to you by...

Thanks to our own Dwiz, I got to find out who my superhero love match is. It's a pretty lengthy quiz, and interestingly enough the very first question is: "Are you gay?"

Once that's established, questions like "Are you trying to get busy on the first date?", "Do you like hights or flying?" "Do you like boys more powerful than you?" and "Do you like bisexual boys?" take you through a variety of interesting possibilities. In the end, I got Beast:

Smart, strong, witty, and snuggly, Beast will either take you out for a night of sophisticated bliss or will make you laugh your rear off. Just make sure to bring a lint brush.

Sigh. I always get Beast when doing a quiz like this. I can see us getting along personally but, while looks aren't the most important thing, I wouldn't be able to kiss him without thinking that I'm fulfilling Rick Santorum's ideas of the dangers of letting gays marry. I could see having a chaste Catherine and Vincent type relationship but anything more would be off-putting.

My second closest match was Spider-Man:

Spider-Man is perfect for you. He's totally nerdy and always cracking jokes. And cute! A date at the museum or a movie would be right up his alley. Don't expect to spend the whole evening together though, Spider-Man's known for ducking out early.

Okay, I can imagine myself having a lot of fun on a date with Peter Parker. He's cute, smart and pretty funny when he loosens up. Plus he's got that agility and those mad photojournalism skills which are pretty damn sexy.

My third closest match was Iceman:

Mostly sensitive, but with a temper that can leave you in the cold, Bobby Drake is for the girl who never gets the nICE guy.

Okay, Bobby always seemed like a fun guy and he's usually drawn to be cute as a barrel of puppies, but what's with all the Marvel guys? I've always been more of a DC fanboy so none of these results got me too excited.

However, I wondered why answering "Hellz yeah!" to "Are you gay?" didn't get me any gay characters. I started playing with the questions, changing an answer or two to see how it affected the results. Sometimes the new match made little sense - I changed my answer on "Do you like big muscles?" from a 'sorta' (4 out of 5) to a "Not at all" and I got Colossus as a result with The Thing a close match. If you're not familiar with Colossus, setting him up with someone who says they don't like big muscles at all is something you'd expect out of the producers of Big Brother.

Even his description is about his big muscles:

Tall, Russian and made of steel Colossus is one country bumpkin who knows how to plow a field.

Similarly, changing "Do you care if your date is wealthy?" from 'not really' (2 out of 5) to "Hellz yeah!" got me a match with Nightwing ... did I miss out on a story arc where Dick Greyson inherited the secret Greyson fortune or something? Was that part of Countdown or one of those series I avoided even the summaries? I never did get a gay character. Ah well, at least I finally did get DC's dream date.

But I'm curious to what kind of superhero love matches our readers get? Who's your superhero love match? Let us know in the comments!

Dreamgirls' Deena Jones as a Broadway Bear

In a continued effort to bring you all that is important in the world of gay entertainment and ensure that you are being spoon-fed images of gorgeous, commoditized manflesh, we present the newly-minted AfterElton Briefs. Following the usual assortment of carefully-selected news items, interested readers can find a refreshing pic of a hot man in underwear after the jump. Yes, we're serious.

• I'm just gonna go ahead and place my bet that the complete collection of Broadway Bears for this year's Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS auction is the best thing I'll see all day.

• Don't forget we're liveblogging the premiere of Big Brother 9. Why? Because it includes a gay and bisexual housemate chosen because they seem compatible. Ooohhhh...

• Hey, single NYC guys and fellas whose boyfriends don't mind your ogling Broadway's humpiest triple-threat on Valentine's Day: Cheyenne Jackson and the Xanadu kids will be performing live this Thursday at Macy's, and signing bare chests autographs after.

• GLAAD got the New York Daily News to change an insensitive and defamatory headline about a transgender murder victim. Yes, I'm talking about THAT New York Daily News. No, this isn't Opposite Day.

• A gripping photo of two Hungarian gay men waiting for medical help following anti-gay violence took second place in the 51st Annual World Press Photo contest's "Contemporary Issues" category.

• BFFs Katherine Heigl and T.R. Knight were snapped smoking cigarettes behind a truck on a beautiful winter day. Loving the shoes and the arms. The cancer ... not so much.

• Out.com interviewed actor/director Bob Balaban, who directed the HBO movie Bernard and Doris. (Be sure to check out our interview with star Susan Sarandon and review of the film.) Anyone remember one of Balaban's feature directorial debut, the wonderfully creepy Parents?
