【homo eroticism of action heroes】

The homo eroticism of action heroesDr. Manhattan vibratormade waves — figuratively but also presumably literally — when it debuted on HBO’s Watchmen a week ago. The network seems to have heard fans’ cries for more vibrator content, and they’ve delivered.

Peteypediais Watchmen’s Pottermore-esque companion site that fills in gaps not explained in the show with in-universe documents such as memos and interrogations. One of the latest files on Peteypedia is the blueprint for the (very blue) vibrator:

The file is titled “Excalibur, MerlinCorp. Raid (4/28/95)” and shows detailed diagrams of the vibrator along with annotated notes. The full name is listed as the “Electromagnetic Lithium Powered Excalibur,” which is not as Silicon Valley-snappy as the Lionessor Eva, but does make the toy sound pretty powerful.

As shown in the blueprint, the batteries were in the detachable testicles that Laurie Blake was shown placing on the sides of the vibrator on the show. The vibrator also features a lithium core, contour springs, and electromagnetic induction node — so perhaps its vibration could rival that of the Hitachi wand. A note recommends to place in boiling water between uses.

Interestingly, a note among the Z-Axis outline that states “size and vibrating [effects] lead to diminished duration … recharge nightly.” This tracks with concerns that Liz Klinger, co-founder and CEO of Lioness, had about the vibrator when she spoke to Mashable last weekabout the mechanics.

“Where is this vibration, exactly?” Klinger asked. “Vibration does travel but especially in a larger sex toy like that, if you have the vibration at the base of the vibrator and you’re using the top portion, you may not feel that much.”

Seeing as the Excalibur was a prototype, though, maybe MerlinCorp. took that into consideration when refining it for consumer use.
