Modern superheroes get the classic art treatment in this art series titled Heroes Of Stone. If the sculptors of old lived alongside of these heroes, this is the art they would produce. Forget Julius Caesar. I like how they can sit next to other classic busts and fit right in. The details are really great and it makes you look at these heroes in a new way.
Artist Melissa Smith created this cool splatter art series that shows DC heroes and villains in splatter form. They look other worldly and awesome. These images are so full of energy. If you want to own them as prints, or get these images on clothes, you can find them in her store! These would look fantastic on clothes.
Artist Jason Ratliff has created a new series of 10 posters that really captures the magic of a child’s imagination. It shows kids and their favorite superheroes as their shadows. How many of us have pictured ourselves as heroes when we were kids? Our imagination is a powerful thing and this series captures it perfectly.
You can get signed and limited copies at his curioos shop.
London UK based artist James Northcote is not a super villain. No really. He just likes to dissect superheroes in his series titled Hero dissections. I guess he is just curious about what makes them tick. We all are. It’s just that most of us don’t go slicing them up to find out.
I want to tell James to be careful and that this is how villains always start out, but to be honest I’m kind of scared of James. Just kidding James. You gave me a chuckle with these illustrations.
This is a fun map created by Movoto, which shows all of the hometowns of major Marvel superheroes and villains. It is a nice bit of marketing, but still, this is some useful information for geeks like us. It should settle a lot of arguments.
It’s nice to know where all of these characters come from. They might even come from your hometown. If so, hopefully you’ll run into them and get an autograph. Yeah, that is NOT likely, since they aren’t real, but it’s fun to dream huh? Spider-Man is real though. I totally believe in him.
