Superhero Week: The Evolution of Catwoman
There you have it; a tribute to one of the best anti-heroes/comic book characters of all time. I’m not sure it’s entirely fair to put the young Gotham Catwoman in there but, equally, she’s a perfectly valid Catwoman. Which is your favourite Catwoman era? Via Jeff Victor and an awesome collection of art. Let us […]
Superhero Week: What if Superman was adopted by the Waynes
Comic books aren’t shy of doing “What if…” as a scenario. Here’s one of my favourites. What if Superman was adopted by the Waynes and ended up taking the place of Batman. You’d have a super powered crime fighter with Batman’s outlook on life. Would it work? Here’s Cartoon Hooligan’s take on it. This is […]
Superhero Week: Hijab superhero self portraits
Nour Saleh is a hijab wearing Canadian. Last year she took up a Tumblr challenge to draw herself as different fictional characters. I love how Nour responded to that challenge. Not only did she imagine herself as various superheroes, she kept the hijab in all of the illustrations. I think the results work well and […]

Superhero Week: Artist reimagines superheroines with practical costumes
Geek Native once called this “drawing the impossible” back when we looked at Michael Lee Lunsford’s fully dressed superheroines. I like these additional designs from Lord Ingvard. He’s an illustrator who was experimenting with alternatives… but has found out that not everyone on the internet appreciates it. Amazingly, he’s been forced to offer apologies for […]
Superhero Week: We’re not bored of superhero movies yet
Are you getting fed up of superhero movies? Geek Native asked the question to readers and competition players. 300 responses later and analysis shows that interest in superheroes remain strong; good news for the Ant-Man movie, Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice a host of others due on the big screen over the next few […]
Superhero Week: Wonder Woman’s trousers
This new command from the always amazing Wonder Woman is brought to you by Superhero Week and Imgur where it was left without comment. I think the illustration speaks for itself. I’m slightly concerned the Green Lantern isn’t wearing anything, the dress is just a creation of will and once his ring runs out of […]
Superhero Week: How to be a Supervillain
This post is not just part of Superhero Week. It’s also part of Geek Native’s Short Film series. This charming short project sprang from the mind of Alkanoids. 7 illustrators and 7 animators had just 2 days to get the job done. That’s why each of the segments had their own style. Despite how different […]
