The title of this photograph is “Why so serious?” Judging by this Harley Quinn’s smile; she’s having fun, avoiding the pit trap of grim seriousness. The cosplayer is Ryoko Demon and the photographer is Soldatov Vladimir.
The Gotham Evening Post
This fine collection of art comes from the talent that is Mark Dos Santos. He was rebuilding his site when this post went live but his online store where you can buy these prints is still live and functional. His first published job was for Deadlands: Hell on Earth so Mark has gamer cred as […]
Wonderful DC Women portraits
Deviant artist Kit from Japan has a fantatic collection of DC Women (heroes and villains) looking superb. These posters almost remind me of war posters with their pastel tones and lines but they also seem fun and friendly too. Which is your favourite? Via So Geek Chic.
What’s in the Injustice Gods Among Us collector’s edition?
Imagine the makers of the brutal beat ‘em up Mortal Kombat got into making computer games around superheroes. That’s exactly what’s going on with Injustice: Gods Among Us. This is a fighting game set in the DC Universe that’ll unleash itself on the Wii U, Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 in April next year. The […]
Picture this… a bad idea
Some wonderful art from Nebezial. Have you done this? Not sneak up behind the Joker while he’s tinkered with a bomb – but recognised the situation, failed to register it entirely and go ahead with your original idea? Bad idea.
Superhero Week: Batman’s Femme Fatale
Batman manages to attract the attention of an interesting collection of femme fatales. Is this because writers are often tempted to view Batman as the peak of male potential (successful, active, rich, community minded…) and pitch him against someone female? Artists Andrea Rhodes and Saul Ruiz have a collection of some Gotham’s troublesome women. A […]
The Rockabilly Batman and Bane
Bob Kane and Bill Finger created Batman in 1939 and so the Dark Knight lived through the Rockabilly era of the 1950s. I suspect, though, Batman art and stories haven’t been touched by the Rockabilly style until now. I keep on wanting to type “rockability” – but I suspect that’s the gamer in me trying […]
The lady superheroes of 1887
For the full collection pop over to Michael Dooney’s deviant art page. Dooney works professionally on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turles series. A special thank you is deserved for not using the phrase “steampunk” for these illustrations. Instead, they’re an alternative form of Victoriana. (via)
Batman: Arkham City graphic novel review
This is a well written and beautifully drawn book that fills the gap between the Batman computer games. Paul Dini and Carlos D’Anda have done really well. It’s hard not to be a little frustrated by Arkham City. It is good but its role is to line up the Arkham City computer game. It’s a […]
18 fantastic Comic-Con cosplayers who were Born This Way
This is a lip-dub of Lady Gaga’s infamous Born this Way. I imagine there are about a million of these videos on YouTube already. This one, however, is special. It’s great. I love it. This video shows what good sports geeks are. We’re up for a laugh. We’ll play along (well; when we’re not being […]
