These fun and retro minimalist posters come from Reddit user Noble-6, who wanted to feature the prominent captains with each of their ships. They are pretty awesome, no? Well, you can actually buy them here.
They would look great all together on one wall. Awesome stuff.
In February of 2015, Marvel Comics will feature 20 variant covers drawn by artist Phil Noto. That’s next month. You’ll love the retro style of these covers. It was announced at New York Comic Con last year and February so it has been a long wait, but it is almost here. In the meantime you can check some of them out below.
You can check out more of Noto’s retro Marvel covers here and at his Tumblr.
Ask anybody what their favorite original Star Trek episode is and 9 out of 10 people will answer, “Mirror, Mirror”. It is an amazing episode that turns everything on it’s head, taking Kirk and crew to a parallel universe. This cosplay based on the classic episode comes from Thunderfairy and we love it.

She stars as a crew member from that parallel universe and even gets to hang out with bearded Spock. Well done! This is some nice eye candy. Of course I’ve always been partial to that colorful bridge set.
This series by Scott Erickson is titled Alliance Is Rebellion. Characters and vehicles from Star Wars are imagined as traditional Northwest Coast Indian art. They combine old traditions with new mythologies in a striking way.
You can buy prints from Scott’s website.

If you watch Mad Men then you are very familiar with the opening to the show. Etsy seller noodlehug was inspired by the show to create these neat posters, with pop culture characters in place of the Mad Man from the intro. We’ve featured this seller’s work before and I have to say, I really like their stuff.
Now we get to see Darth Vader,Boba Fett, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Loki, Spider-Man and others replace Don Draper in these mashups. I’m thinking that these guys would all make an amazing ad agency. They could call it Draper, Vader and Fett. Or maybe Vader, Fett and Sterling. Something like that.
Etsy seller handdrawncreative has a super nice and retro hand drawn Silent Running print. It is a limited edition of only 20 prints and he tells me he only has one left.
I can’t think of a better way to celebrate Douglas Trumbull’s 1972 film featuring Bruce Dern. I know I would love to display this in my man cave. Each print is signed and numbered. For those of you who have never seen the movie. Shame on you. Go do that now.
These minimalist Star Wars Vehicle Posters by Robert Greaux & Julie Parker-Garza have just the right amount of retro, with a great use of colors. You can get them for just $18 each.
You can keep your Picasso and your Rembrandt. This is the kind of art that makes me happy. Just give me some cool ships from a far away galaxy and my imagination. I’m good. That’s all I need.
Dean Walton has created some very satisfyingly retro Sci-Fi travel posters that would look at home in any galactic travel agency. You can book a trip to many famous locales, like Vulcan, Pandora, Solaris, New York as seen in The Fifth Element and more.
However, if you find yourself traveling the cosmos, do yourself a favor and don’t forget your Multi-Pass. Also, if we have learned anything from Hitchiker’s Guide To The Galaxy, it is this. It might be a good idea to pack a towel. A towel always comes in handy. And no matter where you go, there you are.
