Iron Man Gets Mashed Up With Other Iconic Characters

Can’t get enough of Iron Man? Are you so crazy about him that you want to see him merged with Superman, using his heat vision? What about Iron Man as the Lord of the Sith, Darth Vader? Melbourne-based graphic designer Kode Logic has created a series of illustrations called “Iron MaSH!” that shows Iron Man mashed-up with other iconic heroes and villains. The results are spectacular.

It’s as if we are watching Iron Man assimilate other characters with some Borg-like technology so that he can be the ultimate weapon.

Spider-Man and His Amazing Threads Infographic

Spider-Man has been around for decades and over that time he has had many outfits. He changes with the times like anyone else. Halloweencostumes.com has created this infographic to show us all of the costume changes Spidey has undergone through the years. It’s so hard to pick a favorite.

Of course this infographic is not complete. There are several costumes not shown, but it is still fun to have a look at Spidey through the years.

Vintage Chinese Bootleg Star Wars Comic

Nick Stember has translated a 142 page Chinese comic book adaptation of Star Wars that was originally published in Guangdong, China, in the 1980s. It’s crazy stuff. It’s best just to take a look for yourself. It seems to have been made without viewing Return of the Jedi, since there are elements of the other movies and none from Jedi.

Below are just some of the panels. You can hit up Nick’s website for the rest. This is a strange rabbit hole to fall into, but you can easily lose a lot of time looking through all of the images and translations.

Fantastic Four Art By Earl Norem

It is really a shame that we can’t get a good animated Fantastic Four movie made. This artwork by Earl Norem is just stunning and this should be the template for an animated movie. It’s from a vintage kids book and is more alive than most movies.

Someone needs to run with this idea. This art is just 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.

DC Comics Artists Redesign General Mills Monster Cereals Boxes

We still have a few months to go before Halloween arrives, but it’s getting closer to that magical time of year when General Mills releases its special Halloween-themed cereals. This time it will be different though. The company is teaming up with DC Comics for the box art in a brilliant bit of marketing.

The new boxes will feature redesigns of the cereal mascots by some of the top comic book illustrators. Jim Lee does Boo Berry, Dave Johnson has Franken Berry and Terry Dodson and Rachel Dodson do Count Chocula. These cereals will feature limited-edition packaging with the new art work, and comic strips on the back drawn by Brent Schoonover.

Planet Of The Apes Art By Alex Ross

The latest Planet of the Apes movie has me wanting to watch the old Planet of the Apes movies all over again, but before I do that, I thought I would share this poster art from comic artist Alex Ross. He has created four pieces of poster art inspired by the original Planet of the Apes. These are based on covers of the Boom Studios Comic book Planet of the Apes: Cataclysm. They were available for purchase at San Diego Comic-Con, but you can still buy them here. If any are left.

Each 17 x 22 inch giclee is a limited edition of 168. They will cost $145 each and $195 for #4. Sure, they are a tad expensive, but this is Alex Ross. And apes! Damn dirty apes!

Domino X-Force Cosplay

Check out this beautiful Domino X-Force cosplay by Virginia-based artist It’s Raining Neon. Domino is looking beautiful and oh so deadly. It makes me want to see what she could do with the rest of the X-Force team. I choose her to make and also star in an X-Force movie. It’s a lot of work, but I trust her completely after seeing what she did with Domino, one of my favorite X-Force team members.

You can follow her on Facebook and Deviantart.

Superhero Serum Cologne Bottles

Fighting crime is tough work. You might as well smell your best while you are cleaning up the streets or battling mutant monsters from another dimension. This series of conceptual superhero ‘serum’ cologne bottles was created by Charlotte, North Carolina based digital design firm Animink. They look amazing.

These renders are stylish and timeless, much like the comic book heroes that they represent. I’m sure that the scents would also be timeless, if they actually existed. I’m not sure that I want to smell Hulk Rage though. I can only imagine how bad a raging Hulk must smell. I’ll pass on that one.
