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.
We’ve featured Joey Spiotto’s art before and we really love his geeky take on classic children’s books, so we thought we would point you to some prints of his Geeky Little Golden Book covers. These prints really are the best thing ever.
I only wish we could have grown up with these books. Below are a few of our favorites, but make sure you check out his Etsy store for many more. They are simply adorable.
If you have ever wondered what the Star wars characters do while on vacation, wonder no more. It’s all right here. These are the work of Kyle’s Gallery and they are certainly whimsical. They sure know how to live it up and relax during their downtime.
I never took Boba for a knitting kind of guy. And it’s nice to see C-3PO stopping to smell the roses and Vader having some tea too. You can buy prints from Kyle’s Etsy Shop.
Pedal cars. Everyone loves them. Even Geek culture icons. This series by Chet Phillips is simply called the “Pedal” series. It features famous geek culture movie characters driving pedal cars that match them. This series is super fun and playful. Below are just some of our favorites. I have to say, I love the sight of Crow T. Robot driving a Tom Servo car.
The best part is that you can buy prints, or a hardbound book with the illustrations from Chet’s Etsy shop.

Artist Chris Thornley created these retro art prints based on Charlie Brown as Indiana Jones. You’ll notice that there is one print for each movie in the original trilogy. Nothing for Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. And I’m okay with that.
Good grief these are cool! I’ve never been a big fan of the Peanuts gang, but mashups like this get my attention. I might read some Peanuts comic strips if they feature more of my heroes like Indiana Jones. These are part of New York City’s Bottleneck Gallery’s NYCC collection, and if you like them you can purchase them here.

Check out these Star wars characters from graphic artist Bjorn Hurri. They have gone full steampunk and they look cool as hell. They are all decked out in copper plating, gears, monocles and leather, with the occasional steam stack thrown in for good measure. Bjorn is super talented. They are all beautiful.
There are more at his site, so check them all out. All of these illustrations are available as prints at his online store.
Are you dreaming of a far off destination? In need of a vacation to an exotic locale in a sci-fi realm? Well, these travel posters from KnerdKraft will fire up your imagination while celebrating some of your favorite geek locations.

The Star Trek: Ships Of The Line Posters Book is sure to scratch your itch. You know the one I’m talking about. When you just need to lay your eyes on that sweet eye-candy that is Star trek vessels and admire all of their curves and flowy lines. This is the nerd version of a pin-up calendar for guys like me.
The Enterprise and most of the other ships are just so lovely and I have had a love affair with them all of my life. These posters are perfect for framing or just admiring in the book. It’s the kind of book that comes off my shelf regularly so I can fall in love all over again.
This series of World War II Star Wars photos shows what would happen if both worlds collided. Elements from the Star Wars universe are put into photos from World War II and the end results are pretty awesome.
If you love these as much as I do, you can buy the prints from Thirteenth Floor. Our soldiers had it bad enough in that war. Can you imagine if they had to fight the galactic Empire as well?
You’ve never seen the Star Wars ships and vehicles looking so cute. I know that I’ve never seen a pie-eyed Death Star before anyway. This set of 6 prints from Herosquares is going to look amazing on your walls. It shows your love of Star Wars without being too serious.
I think the AT-AT is my favorite because he looks so derpy. You get 6 original 8.5″ x 8.5″ glossy card stock prints signed by the artist. These are perfect for a kids room. You get Luke Skywalker’s X-Wing fighter, Darth Vader’s Tie Fighter, Boba Fett’s Slave-1, Han Solo’s Millenium Falcon, an AT-AT & The Death Star!
