Adventure Time / Comic Book Mashups

Comic Book Resources recently held a new weekly mashup art collaboration titled The Line It Is Drawn. Their 142nd theme is all about Adventure Time! Here we get to see how Jake and Finn and the rest of the gang fit in with various comic books.

Below are some fantastic illustrations that mashup comic book superheroes and villains with characters from Adventure Time. I would love to see a new Adventure Time comic book like this every week. You can find the artists through the links below. This is just a sampling.

Star Trek: Voyager – Aeroshuttle Test Footage And Unused Voyager Designs

The Enterprise D had a Captain’s Yacht, and likewise Voyager had an Aeroshuttle. Although we never saw it on screen. It was a small craft attached to the underside of the USS Voyager’s saucer section. It was there the whole time. You can see it attached to the Saucer. It was just never used.

The Delta Flyer basically took over its role. Now we can see the launch sequence thanks to visual effects artist Adam “Mojo” Lebowitz who posted a concept test video of the Aeroshuttle launch. Star Trek designer Rick Sternbach has also been sharing some behind the scenes Voyager stuff lately. A LOT of it. This is because next year is the 20th anniversary of the series. Below you can see some concept art for the Aeroshuttle as well as some earlier concept art for Voyager herself and even a foamcore mockup.

John Carter Character Design And Concept Art

Michael Kutsche served as a character designer on the John Carter movie a few years back. The movie may not have been the success that Disney had hoped, but you certainly can’t blame it on the character and creature design. Kutsche did some amazing and out of this world work.

Check out some of the concept art from his Behance page. In some ways the creatures are even more alive in his art than they were on the screen.

Geeky WW2 Pinups

These retro illustrations come from Atomic Girl and depict several famous geek women as World War II pin up bombshells. They were inspired by the pinup art that pilots used to paint on the side of their fighter planes. Ironically, with an invisible jet, Wonder Woman is her own plane pinup art.

Here we have Harley Quinn, Wonder Woman, Molotov Cocktease and Slave Leia. They look great on the side of a plane or even on T-shirts for that matter. Hopefully she will add more geek women to the lineup. I would love to see Batgirl and some of the Marvel X-Girls as well.

Doctor Who: Postcards in Time and Space

Postcards from the edge…Of time and space. What if you could visit some of Doctor Who’s locations and then send postcards back home to your friends and family? If you could, they would hopefully be as beautiful as these Doctor Who inspired postcards.

These lovely works of art come from the combined forces of Behance users Megan Lara and Harry Gordon. I think I’ll give Skaro a pass and visit Gallifrey and Midnight.

Concept Art From Bryan Singer’s 2001 Battlestar Galactica

Before Ronald D. Moore brought Battlestar Galactica back to life, Bryan Singer almost beat him by a few years. Singer had his new Battlestar Galactica series in development around 2000-2001, but due to the 9/11 tragedy everything stalled and it was sadly never meant to be.

It would have been interesting to see what Singer’s take on the franchise would have been like. We may never be able to see everything, but luckily, we can get some idea, thanks to some concept art that recently appeared online. We can see a more streamlined Viper, some interior sketches of the Galactica and some bulky Cylon designs that look menacing and tough. The art seen here was created by designer Guy Hendrix Dyas. That Viper has some nice curves. Makes me wonder what Galactica herself would have looked like.

Sci-Fi And Superhero Engraved Hobo Nickels

British artist Shaun Hughes has some mad engraving skills. He creates quite a variety of incredible hobo nickels. What you see here is just a small sampling of his work. He has all kinds of creations on his DeviantART gallery.

Even if we could, there’s no way we could spend any of these. They are so beautiful you would just want to keep them. These altered coins look amazing.

The Evolution Of The Dark Knight

It is the Dark Knight’s 75th anniversary. To celebrate, Gulf News has put together a 4-page PDF highlighting the evolution of the dark knight over the years. Batman’s look has changed and evolved over the decades more than people realize. Especially when you take into account that it isn’t just in the comic books. There are the TV shows, movies and even video game versions of the Caped Crusader. Here are 20 of the most iconic, popular and even some of the oddest incarnations of the Batman. Enjoy.

Great (Ridley) Scott! Pris Blade Runner Cosplay

Great (Ridley) Scott!This visually arresting Pris cosplay from the sci-fi classic Blade Runner is from Merrypranxter. Much like Daryl Hannah in the movie, I could watch MerryPranxter pose and dance around all day, acting silly. The photographer is Natasha Day.

Merrypranxter says, “I love cosplaying Pris because it just makes me feel like a bad-ass. Which is pretty much the OPPOSITE of me in real life. When i put her on at conventions I always have the best time!” You and everyone watching. Great job. You nailed it.
