Hot nerds are kind of like sexy leathermen: you see a lot more of them in movies than you do in real life. That's why we were excited to find pictures of studs at Comic-Con that included some actual studs!
Sure, they're as nerdy as a game of World of Warcraft in your grandmother's basement, but that 's part of their appeal. They may be handsome and take care of their bodies, but they don't rest on their laurels. No, they go above and beyond to create a whole look to show their enthusiasm for pop culture and to try to make themselves into something that is even sexier. Oh, and all that spandex just makes life easier. You don't want to bring a Spider-Man home and find out that he's lacking in the "special power" department.
