'Game of Thrones' Cabaret Posters by Fernando Reza

The buzz for season four of Game of Thrones is starting to mount as we get within the two month mark of the shows premiere. That means more and more online tie ins are going to start popping up, and this post highlights one of them. My Reddit vigilante Joe Fletch discovered these awesome cabaret style posters featuring GOT items... yup, not the same characters that we have seen a bunch and instead a spotlight featuring certain items that have played a huge part in the characters lives. Wildfire, Milk of the Poppy, and Valaryian Steel all get their own ads from Fernando Reza, and they are glorious. These kinds of posters get me even more hype or the show, which returns to the air waves on April 6th, 2014.

"Hulky The Pooh Doesn't Know What To Do.." - Marvel Characters In The Vein of Winnie the Pooh by CP Wilson III

Reddit is a treasure trove. A literal treasure trove of cool things to post. Take these extraordinary original pieces from artist CP Wilson III. He decided to channel E.H. Shepard's style of art that made Winnie the Pooh a household recognized character and use it to bring certain Marvel characters to life. He has the Hulk playing the role of Pooh, and the rest of the Marvel catalog as supporting Pooh characters. I love the way he taps into some of the more obscure Marvel story lines (Planet Hulk, Future Imperfect, etc) and delivers some great renditions. What a great mash up. Wilson III is currently the illustrator of Wraith for IDW, and his traditional works are pretty spectacular as well. But these are a great side project for him, and he is on to something. You can check out all of the stuff Wilson III has to offer on his Deviant Art page. Thanks to Joe Fletch for another killer find...

 

Marvel Robots by Keanu 432

The robot has been becoming more and more prevalent in pop culture. Yup, everything has its way around. Vampires were hot about 5 years ago, then zombies. It is the robots time to shine. Pacific Rim, Transformers 4, Almost Human... yeah, its time for the robot overkill. Enter artist Keanu 432, who decided to re-imagine some of the classic Marvel characters as if they were robots. You certainly get the feel that this is how they would look if they were robot like beings. These are quite good, and he has other cool stuff over at his Imgur page. Check out the Marvel Robots after the jump...

The Walking Dead Mid-Season Finale & It's Comic Counterparts... In GIF Form!

Ahhh... the magic of the Internet! What a great tool, especially for people who like to dot their I's and cross their T's as much as I do! Having read The Walking Dead comics and being an avid fan of the TV show I love the little differences and substitutions between the two. Things that happen to certain characters are swapped, story lines are co-mingled, and the overall narrative tends to blur from time to time.... but no matter what, the gist of the original story is conveyed and the show always circles back to the books origins. I am always interested to see when and where the writers on the show will come back to the original narrative when they deviate... especially since the creator/writer Robert Kirkman is so closely associated with the shows journey. Thanks to the good old folks at Reddit (and its original source location), we can give people who didn't read the original books a glimpse at where the original ideas for some key moments in this seasons mid-season finale started out from. Check out these 8 GIF images after the jump...

The Elizabeth Arkham Asylum For The Criminally Insane - Lego Style

There are custom Lego builds... and then there are CUSTOM LEGO BUILDS. Xenomurphy is a Lego builder who has just completed one of the second ones, a Lego build that is about as epic as it could be. He has spent the last year completing a huge Lego build of the Elizabeth Arkham Asylum for the Criminally Insane of Batman fame, complete with a courtyard and interiors that bring the building from the Batman mythos to life! Yup, a whole year... and not only did he dedicate himself to the epic build, he has provided the world with a free 80 page guidebook on how to replicate the build brick by brick!!!! That is right, you can build your own incredibly detailed Arkham Asylum, thanks to Xenomurphy's meticulous documentation. The pictures of this build don't do it justice, and the sheer fact that the build guidebook is 80 pages gives you a glimpse of just how much work went into it. You can see Xenomurphy's Flickr photostream with all the photos of the build by clicking here, and you can download the full 80 page build guide in PDF format by clicking here. Great work... check out a few images after the jump...

The Marvel Cinematic Universe Thus Far by One Man Sidekick

One Man Sidekick is a graphic artist who loves that Marvel Cinematic Universe. He decided to show his love for the excellent work that Marvel is doing on the big screen by compiling some pieces of all the major characters from each film, giving them all the proper shine they deserve. These are absolutely great, given the fact that he is using stock images of the characters. The way he arranges them and makes them play off each other, and also chooses specific versions of each character to bring his pieces to life.
