It’s been a few weeks since Leonard Nimoy passed away and it is going to take time to come to terms with that if you are one of the many people that he touched. Argentinian artist Juan Miranda created this stunning retro tribute to the original Vulcan.
We will never see another soul like his again. Kirk was right. His was the most human. And as long as we remember him, he is not really dead.
Hipster Superheroes. I guess that is either a good thing or a bad thing depending if you are a Hipster or not. This fun series comes from artist Phillip Sevy and it includes both Marvel & DC Superheroes as hipsters.
One thing is for sure. These are not the heroes that we know and love. This is a pretty drastic change for all of them. I never thought that I would see Batman as a hipster.
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.
Sometimes you come across some poster art that is just stunning and blows you away. Take a moment to really absorb this art by Orlando Arocena. It is striking, bold, colorful and super detailed.
No one will blame you if you just stare at the screen for several minutes appreciating these awesome posters.
Tim Burton gave us such classics as Edward Scissorhands, the 1989 Batman movie, Beetlejuice and many more, but have you ever wondered what he could have done with The Avengers? These sketches from artist Xenia Rassolova give us a pretty good idea. They all look spot on if you ask me. That’s totally Tim Burton style.
As much as I like some of Burton’s classic movies, I’m glad he didn’t touch The Avengers. This is still a cool concept though. It’s always nice to see a new take on familiar characters that we know.
Artist Eric Guzman did a fantastic job with this series. What would happen if you merged the characters from DC Comics and Marvel together? Well, what you get is a new universe filled with brand new yet familiar characters like The Joking Goblin, Deadshot the Hunter, Darewing, MysteRiddle, Banenom, Dr. Octofreeze, Poison Scorpion, Captain Krypton, and The Scavenger. I am really digging these new characters.
It’s too bad this could never happen in the pages of either company’s comic books. I would love to see more.
This series of posters from London based artist Luke Butland focuses on some of the gunslingers that we know and love. This collection features Han Solo, Judge Dredd, Robocop, and more. This series is all about stylish brush strokes and textures, with each character’s weapon of choice shown below.
These bold illustrations really bring the sharpshooters to life and gives them a darker edgy presence. You instantly know that these guys are dangerous.
I love these retro Star Trek Prints from Etsy seller bensmind. They feature all of the various incarnations of the show and they have the right amount of retro. The colors really pop. At only $19.99 a piece you can’t go wrong decorating your own bridge with these fine works of art.
Each poster/print is individually and personally numbered and signed on the back.
I’m blown away by digital artist Art-Calavera and this awesome Star Wars / Lord of the Rings crossover fan art series! It features Darth Saurus, Obi Wandalf Kenolorin, a riding Sithgul, a Mandarohan Soldier, and Princess Organadriel of the Organadrhim, Darth Maul, the Sith King of Angmar and Dwakiees.
The artist really blended both properties together perfectly and the colors are just perfect as well.

Check out these Sci-Fi faces done up in 80’s Style artwork. This set comes from Murcia, Spain-based artist StudioM6.
Featured are Darth Vader, The Terminator, Rocket Punch and Big daddy from Bioshock. These would look great as T-Shirts. I love these retro designs. I just wish this collection was larger so we could see more.
