Superhero Month: Miscellany

Just cruising around the internet, looking for interesting views of superheroes; whether they're original, reboots or mash-ups, I thought these were pretty cool!

I came across Aaron Diaz and his blog via the ever informative io9.com.  Here is a peek of his reimagined Justice League, Legion of Doom and Batman; you can see them all here:



I also came across another blog by artist Denis Medri via Twitter; the blog is in Italian but his artwork is wonderful and needs no translation.  He has remade the cast of STAR WARS as 80s high school students and Marvel and DC heroes/villains in 70s, Western and Steampunk styles!!!  Please see more of his work here:


                                                         C3-P0 and R2-D2 as The Nerds



                       As 80s high school students: Han Solo, Chewbaca and the Millenium Falcon


                                                             A 70s inspired Punisher...


                                               A truly wicked looking steampunk Venom...


                                                                and a Western Batman

As I've said before, I'm a big fan of reinventions of such iconic characters and found myself wishing to know the stories that would accompany these images!  These are all so great and there are thousands of words here just waiting to be told!  Until they are, I shall keep perusing the web for even more great superhero art...

Happy Reading!
