I can’t tell you much about this picture – but I wanted to share it. This scary train was surfaced by a Russian LiveJournal account without any credit to any artist. It’s described as “trollface”. I can certainly see trolls with faces in there! I rather like “trollface train” as a title for it. Checking […]
Duck Tales + Doctor Who = Doctales
Take a cartoon from easier years – Duck Tales. Take a sci-fi series that’s still with us, manages to be British and yet international at the same time – Doctor Who. Mix the two together, folding rather than stirring and season with some artistic talent. What do you get? You get Doctales! You get River […]

The Dark Knight meets the Starry Night: Dark Starry Knight
The Van Sauron picture was pretty popular. Van Gogh and Lord of the Rings makes for a good combo. What about Batman and Van Gogh? Can we return to this famous painting with the Dark Starry Knight? With James Hance‘s impressive geek art – we certainly can. Check it.

Keyboard skulls
Artist Maurice Mbikayi has created a pair of clever visuals with a maship of computer keys and the human head. My favourite is the bone white skull. What do you think? Via Street Anatomy.
Dangerous, freaky, sinister Pokemon
It’s amazing how fan activity around Pokemon is fairly strong. I guess they became a part of people’s lives for very many years, became part of geek culture and left their pokemark. I suspect these critters will leave their mark too. Massive bow to deviant artist Gavin Mackey who drew these – who re-imagined these. […]
Van Sauron
Just when you think you’ve seen the one mashup that rules them all, another mashup pops up to take your breath away. Step forward to this Lord of the Rings meets high art mashup. Van Gogh’s Starry Night meets Peter Jackson’s Sauron. I call it Van Sauron. Vincent van Gogh’s “The Starry Night” Imagine a […]

Balloon monsters
Larry Moss is quite some guy! He was the founder of one the first websites on the internet outside of academic circles. It was BallonHQ.com and althuogh the domainer in me can’t but help wonder if he could have done any better… it’s still shows thought leadership years ahead of almost everyone else. Larry is […]
