Super Realistic Superhero Stained Glass Prints

Etsy seller FayProductions makes all kinds of prints that imitate the look of stained glass. They are pretty striking and look just like the real thing. Just put them on your windows and you have some instant stained glass fit for a geek church or comic book temple.

Below are some of our favorites. Click the link to see everything they have. They are reasonable priced between $8 and $25. The more complicated and larger pieces are the more expensive. This is the kind of geek art that can really transform your house.

Behind The Scenes Of The Dark Knight Trilogy

With Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice still being a year and a half away from theaters, we need a Batman fix now more than ever. Well, feast your eyes on these behind the scenes images from Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy.

Luckily for us these movies were very well documented, so we get to take a look at what went on behind the camera. Nolan really nailed Batman and even if I didn’t care for much of The Dark Knight Rises, Nolan really understood Batman in a way that other filmmakers have not.

DC Comics As Painted By Norman Rockwell

I love these Norman Rockwell inspired Saturday Evening Post covers. They feature some of our favorite classic DC Comics heroes and villains. This art comes from DeviantArt user OnlyMilo a.k.a. Ruiz Burgos. Wonder Woman, Clark Kent, Zatanna, The Joker, Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy all look right at home in the era portrayed on these covers.

I always love seeing these characters in new ways that are totally unexpected, yet realistic. They really come to life here in these classy vintage covers. Awesome work.

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.

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 Characters With Their Pokemon Equals

Artist and art student Creees Lee loves DC Comics. Also Pokemon. Naturally, he made some super cool mashup illustrations that put them together. These DC Comics characters are all hanging out with their Pokemon equals. I would totally watch a show where the DC Comics characters trained these Pokemon and unleashed them on bad guys.

If you want to own prints you are in luck, since Creees will be selling prints of these for $15 each. You can also get the whole set for $70. So much good art, so little wall space…

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.

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.
