These redesigns of some Marvel Superheroes from Can Egridere are pretty cool. I really love the Spider-Man and Daredevil ones. I can see that Spidey mask being a bad guy though. Very cool. Iron Man kind of looks dorky, but it’s a fun design. I would love to see his take on more superheroes. What do you guys think?

In 1935, DC Comics founder Major Malcolm Wheeler-Nicholson published New Fun No. 1–the first comic book with all-new, original material–at a time when comic books were mere repositories for the castoffs of the newspaper strips. What was initially considered to be disposable media for children was well on its way to becoming the mythology of our time–the 20th century’s answer to Atlas or Zorro.
More than 40,000 comic books later, TASCHEN has produced the single most comprehensive book on DC Comics. More than 2,000 images–covers and interiors, original illustrations, photographs, film stills, and collectibles–are reproduced using the latest technology to bring the story lines, the characters, and their creators to vibrant life as they’ve never been seen before. Telling the tales behind the tomes is 38-year DC veteran Paul Levitz, whose in-depth essays trace the company’s history, from its pulp origins through to the future of digital publishing, alongside year-by-year timelines and biographies of DC legends.

Most heroes are all about health and exercise and clean living, but it turns out that even superheroes can succumb to excesses and the aging process. When they do it isn’t pretty. Italian cartoonist Donald Soffritti imagines heroes who lived a life of excess and are now older. This art is just awesome, even if their aging is not.
Iain Heath makes some unusual LEGO pop culture characters. They aren’t highly detailed things of beauty, but rather deformed and ugly representations of Geek characters that we all know. This gives them a funny edge and makes them all the more awesome. Hit the link to check out the rest of his Rejectz series. He has even added some funny captions.
