J.E. Mark Takes Batman' Rogues Gallery And Makes Them Real...


I love fan art, especially fan art that depicts the residents of Gotham City. But my man J. E. Marks has taken the Bats villains to a new height with his realistic illustrations of the Rogue Gallery. These versions of Poison Ivy, Joker, Penguin, Riddler, Mr. Freeze and Harvey Dent make my skin crawl... they are so realistic and life like, and yet they highlight the comic attributes that we know and love about these characters so much. I think my fave may be the Penguin, even though she is probably my least favorite villain of the group. Mr. Freeze is pretty amazing as well. Check out more of Mark's work by clicking here, and see the best of the best after the jump...

Thanks to Tommy for the lead...

Batman... Or Badman????


College Humor really brings the heat with there short films and skits, and this is especially true with their Nolan Batman skits. They really hit home to the grunting, scowling Batman from the Nolan films (played masterfully once again by Pete Holmes), albeit a little more pea brained than the World's Greatest Detective (his moniker in the comics). Case in point: The Penguin (played by the always wonderful Patton Oswald!) tries to explain to him that he can't employ extreme violence on his enemies without doing some major damage... like death! But the Dark Knight just doesn't seem to get it... hilarity ensues and this is one of the best ones yet! Enjoy the video after the jump...
