Art Show: Strange Adventures on Other Worlds

Mina Harker



By Josh H Black. Mina's one of my favorite heroes. She's the only character in Dracula - including Van Helsing - who really knows what's going on, but the men all try to sideline and ignore her in the name of trying to protect her. And they pay for it.

Diane and I were fortunate to have a son, because if we'd had a daughter I was pushing to name her Mina. Diane - not a vampire fan at all - was opposed and we were headed for a stand-off (that she totally would have won, but that's not important to the story). [Avalanche Software Art Blog]

Batgirl



I can't make out that signature, so someone tell me if you know who did this. [This Isn't Happiness]

I'd buy a lifetime subscription to a comic about this kid. [Brother Cal again]

By Allen Anderson. [Golden Age Comic Book Stories, who totally makes me want to read some Leigh Brackett]

New York After Disaster



By Gael Bertrand.

Atomic Robo





By Devin Harrigan. [Atomic Robo]

Art Show: No Grave Can Hold Him!

So last night took longer than I wanted it to, but everything's back up and running and the Snow Leopard's gone for now. Back to catching up on some art posts...

Black Canary



By Dan Brereton. [Comic Art Community]

Batgirl



Except for the '90s leg pouches, I really dig this new design by Lee Garbett. Enough that I think I'd like to check out at least the first collection of the new Batgirl series. Even with the Liefeld pouch, it's tons better than the last version. Looks like Batgirl again.

And here's cover artist Phil Noto's version:



But just in case you still prefer it Old School:



By Mike Maihack.

Doritos Asylum



Anthony Ventura did a fantastic cut-out diorama display for Doritos. The above piece is just a small part of it. Click the link to see the whole, beautiful thing. Then, if you like Anthony's work, check out this short story he and I did together about a beautiful woman, a mad doctor, and some cybernetic little people.

Dark Centuri



By John Spencer. [American Pulps and Magazines]

Padme at Geonosis



By Otis Frampton. I have some big, big problems with the Star Wars sequels, but Padme circa Attack of the Clones is not one of them. I love the arena scene (until the Jedi show up) and this piece captures exactly why that is.

Future Clothes

I hear quite a bit of complaining about what skimpy clothes women and girls today are wearing. It just hit me though that we really should've known this was coming. Haven't we always known that future female fashions were going to be skimpy?



Princess Leia



By Michelle Gorski.

Avatar

Maybe it was because I was trying to avoid being confused with that other movie with the same name (although I guess that's no longer a problem). Maybe it was due to residual backlash against Titanic. Maybe it was my natural skepticism towards all the hype about how it's going to change the future of movie-making. Whatever the reason, I've been less than enthusiastic about James Cameron's Avatar.

Until now.
