While leafing through the phone book just now, I happened to come across a company in East London called Kandor. And guess what they do? They provide models of buildings for architectural projects (which must actually be quite a fun job in itself). I wonder how many of their clients actually get the reference.

You know that "model" of Kandor for sale in comic book stores?  I bet that company has it in their offices. :wink:

Some of those buildings on their main page look like they actually came from Kandor.  Very spacey stuff, very cool:

I have but one question: is this company run by Dr. Evil?

"Dr. Evil, we have a variety of factories. Like for instance, this factory that makes small scale models of factories."

Ha ha, this is cool. This is the kind of job that diorama-loving kids dream of having; building things to sell to companies.

There's no way in a million years that the name is a coincidence. It's great to find Superman fans in a variety of places, from professional model building to observational situation comedy.
