Remember that cool Adventure Time and Mad Max: Fury Road mash-up art from Ryan May? Well, it has evolved. Egor Zghun has turned it into a cool piece of animation and now we want to see it as a feature film. But that’s just us being greedy for more. It’s only about a minute long, but it totally rocks. Check it out. You’ll want more too.

I don’t think there has ever been a cartoon quite like Adventure Time. It raises the bar for what an animated show can be with amazing art and amazing storylines. Kids and adults alike love this show. If you watch the show then you know that every episode begins with an awesome looking title card that sets the mood for the episode and gives you an idea of what it is about.
Now you can bring those title cards home and admire them as often as you like in this cool coffee table book titled Adventure Time: The Original Cartoon Title Cards. Volume 1 and volume 2 are out so far covering the first four seasons of the show.
Ryan May has put the characters from Adventure Time into the world of Mad Max: Fury Road. Finn is Max, Princess Bubblegum is Furiosa, and the Ice King is Immortan Joe. Marceline is the Doof warrior. Perfect!
These are two of my favorite things, together at last. You can buy prints of May’s mashups here and through Etsy.

Wow. This hand-drawn animated short resurrects the Flash Gordon serials from way back when. Flash…ah ah. He saved every one of us! Yeah, before that. This short was made by veteran Disney animator Robb Pratt who just loves to work on this stuff all the time, just because he loves it. It keeps him up at night.
It has period appropriate music and other nice touches that make it feel like the old serials have come to life again. Even a scantily clad damsel in distress. Dale Arden of course. Flash and Dr. Hans Zarkov are taken to the planet Mongo and forced to fight an alien creature in an arena. Enjoy.

This series of Batman art done in the 1966 style is awesome. Where was this cartoon series when I was a kid? These fantastic illustrations are from Des Taylor, who has an amazing eye for Batman style.
They could still do this cartoon today. I see it as Mad Men meets Gotham, meets Bewitched. I just love those colors and that retro style. Well, we may not have this on TV, but at least Des Taylor gives us a glimpse into this fantastic world.
Have you ever wondered what Star wars characters are called in other countries? Well, cartoonist James Chapman clues us in with this cute cartoon. The Millennium Falcon is the Millénium Condor naturally. Chewie is Chico. That seems about right too. But Jabba the Woodsman? I don’t remember that side of the space slug. The Death Star is The Black Star.
It’s fun to look at different languages and compare words. The great thing about Star wars is that no matter what language you watch it in, the story is universal. May the France be with you! Sorry. Couldn’t resist.
Around here we love Adventure Time and this Fionna and Cake cosplay from Larina is both adorable and creative. Even mathematical! Larina looks super cute posing with that Cake plush toy. She really captured the adventuring spirit of the show and the character.
When you combine her obvious love of the show with quality photography from EleventhPhotograph, M1Photo and Santrizos Photography, you have a winning combination.
The two Doctors are together at last. Dr. Seuss and Doctor Who that is. Not the Colin Baker era serial. These fantastic illustrations of The Doctor as Dr. Seuss characters are from Melbourne, Australia-based artist DrFaustusAU. As a kid I loved both of these Doctors, so I only wish this had existed back then.
Oh! The times and the spaces these doctors have been!
The land of Ooo is home to all kinds of amazing things. It has creatures that can kill you, creatures that are cute, stuff that will just give you poo brain and of course, all of the lovely Princesses. The ladies of Ooo are pretty special. Just ask the Ice King.
Well, Behance artist Haffi Chan has some awesome illustrations featuring some of Adventure Times leading ladies. These illustrations show Princess Bubblegum, Marceline, Lady Rainicorn and the Flame Princess in a new light. They are absolutely stunning. Lady Rainicorn is the best. Not sure why they are all so sad though.
What can you say but wow? The folks over at Tested created an ultra-realistic mask of Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth from Futurama. Every detail is just spot on. The included video shows the process. The end result is a custom-sculpted mask that looks so realistic that it is… Well, a bit terrifying.
The whole process is amazing to watch, even after seeing all of these GIFs in action. Check it out for yourself. I don’t think that anyone can beat this Futurama cosplay. Ever!
