Here’s Two More Wolverine Posters You’ll Want To Steal

by Jill Pantozzi | 4:35 pm, May 21st, 2013

We posted the new The Wolverine trailer earlier today and while most of the live-action stuff we’ve seen has been pretty cool, some of the promotional posters have not. The exception was this gorgeously illustrated one. It was so popular, in fact, that people started stealing them en masse. Well I hope they discovered a new kind of glue since then because we’ve got two more featuring the women from the film. Above is Yukio, hit the jump for Viper.

C2E2 Cosplay & More!

by Jill Pantozzi | 3:30 pm, May 3rd, 2013

Two years ago I attended my first Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo (C2E2 for short). I wasn’t able to make it last year but made a triumphant return last weekend. I sat on the Comix Chix panel (~~to be posted and linked shortly~~), picked up some great art, and saw and participated in some fun cosplay. Take a look at our photo diary of the event.

Jeffrey Veregge Mixes Pop-Culture & Native American Design

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:35 pm, April 13th, 2013

Jeffrey Veregge is a Native American Artist & Designer from the Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe who likes to mix his upbringing with his pop-culture obsessions. “I am a honor graduate from the Art Institute of Seattle, and I have had the privilege to study with Tsimshian master carver David Boxley for a short time learning the basics of Salish form-line design,” he writes. “[My work] is a reflection of a lifetime love affair with comic books, toys, TV and film. Taking my passions and blending them with my Native perspective, artistic background and the desire to simply be me.” Take a look at what he’s created including superheroes, robots, and aliens.

by Jill Pantozzi | 3:35 pm, April 9th, 2013

Mike’s Amazing Cakes from Washington State seem to be pretty great at making any type of fancy cake but certainly excel in our eyes with their geek ventures. Take a look at fantastical cakes of Alice in Wonderland, Doctor Who, and beyond!

This Artist Carved Crayons Into An Alphabet Of Animals

by Jill Pantozzi | 3:30 pm, April 5th, 2013

It would be an understatement to say artist Diem Chau is great at carving objects but well, she is. Her new A-Z set created letters and creatures out of mere crayons (also check out her blog for pencil carvings) and is being displayed at the Packer Schopf Gallery in Chicago this weekend. You’ll never look at your Crayola set the same way again…

Fernando Degrossi Mashes Up Pop Culture and Pop Art

by Susana Polo | 3:33 pm, March 27th, 2013

It’s Wednesday. Lets all relax with some pop culture mashups from Fernando Degrossi, who draws from modern and classic film, music, iconic propaganda and art. A later slide is possibly NSFW due to some sideboob, but on a related note, if Princess Leia wound up at the Bates Motel, I feel like Psycho would have been a lot different. And would have involved a lot more blaster fire.
