One of the superbads in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will be Electro. I feel some of his comic book costumes have been a little naff (not that that’s out of place with early designs) but that can’t be said for Jamie Foxx in this poster. What an incredible look! What do you think? Looking forward […]
Superhero Week: The sexiest superheroes
Here are some sexy superhero costumes. Ah wait, there’s a catch. These have been drawn by Anna to show how male superheroes would look if they were designed like female superheroes. Fair do? In the raging debate on Drawing the impossible? Fully dressed Superheroines a common comment was from people who didn’t mind skimpy female […]
Superhero Week: Who is the most famous black superhero?
Are there enough black superheroes in Marvel, DC Comics, Dark Horse or any other catalogue? Sometimes it’s easier to name green or red (Hulk, Vision, Martian Manhunter, etc) heroes than it is to name a black one. That said, the comic industry has been updating itself and it is less unusual to have a black […]
Superhero Week: Big eyed superheroes are oddly cute
Ahmad Kushha is responsible for the sense of “Whaaaat?” currently echoing around in your brain. These big eyed superheroes shouldn’t work and they certainly shouldn’t seem… cute. That’s exactly how some people see them though. This isn’t an anime big eye style of hero, this is something else. Here’s a few more to puzzle over. […]
Superhero Week: Dan Burgess’ bold art
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
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 […]
Street art 8-bit Spider-man
This isn’t your average site in Paris. You have to wonder how it got there. Long ladders? With or without permission? Do the owners approve? Did the owners do it? What do you think? Share your thoughts in the comments below. Via Street Art News.
Marvel introduces Marvel
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
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
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 […]
