July 2, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

These pieces of Spider-Man and Iron Man art are by Dan Burgess. Burgess makes bold choices with colour and pulls it off. A few bold colours stay more in these prints than you might otherwise expect. This doesn’t mean he’s restricted to just a few tones. Dan’s style scales up. This is a post from […]

Custom Mister Negative statue

June 28, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This remarkable custom Mister Negative statue is on sale at ebay with a current bid of just $26. That, of course, will change. Mister Negative is an interesting Marvel supervillain. He’s gone up against the Punisher but is typically a Spider-Man foe. He can switch between normal and negative appearances at will and between his […]

Marvel introduces Marvel

March 25, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This tribue animation is pretty cool. It’s done by BlackMeal and is exactly the sort of thing that could be used in Blu-ray opening titles. It features little icons that represent both Marvel and some of the company’s most iconic superheroes. The only hard one to spot is the Invisible Woman… which makes sense. Via […]

Award winning Spider-man beard

March 16, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Step up Chad Roberts. He knows how to grow a beard. No wonder he took home the prize in the 2nd annual Garden State Beard & ‘Stache Competition. So many thoughts, though, I mean; does he shower, can he eat burritos, how much gel does he use, which came first – the beard pattern or […]

Batman, The Joker, Hell Boy and X-23 as striking illustrations

March 10, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

These illustrations are by Uwe de Witt, a German illustrator and designer who lists Sam Raimi, Akira, Fight Club and Requiem for a Dream among his favourite inspirations. His style is certainly bold and quite unusual. There’s a certain energy to these pictures and you’ll likely find a favourite too; Batman, The Joker, Spawn, Ghost […]

Superheroes in noir posters

March 1, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Noir isn’t always to everyone’s tastes. It can be bleak although that can be part of the attraction. These posters from Marko Manev certainly don’t seem bleak. They’re carefully understated, they hint at huge scenes and power yet to be unleashed. These may be some of the most familar superheroes known to the web but […]
