In Part Two of my Comics and Graphic Novels inspiration articles, I will be looking at the caped crusader, Batman. Arguably the most famous superhero without super powers, "he makes use of intellect, detective skills, science and technology, wealth, physical prowess, and intimidation in his war on crime" (Wikipedia, 2008).
Comics and graphic novels feature some of the greatest and underrated works of art in the world of design. In this article, I will attempt at showing you just a glimpse of the wonders from the likes of Superman, Batman and Spider-Man.
Akira is probably the most famous anime ever. It introduced a generation to the world of Japanese animation and showed western cultures that animation (which at the time was dominated by Disney movies) can be dark, experimental, and very artistic. For years now, probably since the mid-90's, I've been hearing about a remake of this anime classic into a live-action film.
In May 1st 2009 the "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" movie will be hitting movie theaters everywhere. Wolverine is for sure one of the most bad ass characters out there, and yep, he deserves his own post.
So I've made a selection of cool Wolverine images and at the end of the post there is a sweet trailer from the movie. It totally rocks. I hope you all enjoy this! Cheers! ;)
Mark Brooks is an awesome American comic book artist who is currently signed to an exclusive contract with Marvel comics. He's known for his manga-influenced style, and detail in drawing backgrounds and scenery. His work is absolutely breathtaking, so you should definitely check it out.
When we start thinking about a new design, one of the first things we start researching is cool colors that we might use. But how about researching Super Heroes color schemes?
Yes! We love comics. From DC to Marvel, and other indie studios as well. This time, I bring to you guys only the highest shots from the biggest studios. Time to get inspired!! Hope you like it.
