Batman Boba Fett


Because he's the bounty hunter the galaxy deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So he'll hunt the scum and villainy because he can take it. Because he's not our bounty hunter. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight. (Bobatman by Plinio Pinto at Draw2D2)

Darkness Falls Across The Land: 100 Years of Vincent Price


To celebrate 100th birthday of Vincent Price, Zach Bellissimo drew 100 of his roles on Sticky Notes. Naturally, who wouldn't?

My first encounter with Vincent Price was on the cheapo Canadian TV show The Hilarious House of Frightenstein. I had no idea at the time this campy host was such a horror icon.

50 Ways To Be A Bad Guy


You Just slip out the back, Jack (Torrance)
Make a new plan, Lo Pan
You don't need to be coy, Sauron
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, Stay-Puft
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Audrey
And get yourself free

Ok, Sauron was a bit of stretch, but don't let that take away from the awesomeness of illustrator Robert Ball's Fifty Baddies. (via Hello Zombie)
