These Illustrations Depict Superheroes as Rather Mundane, Ordinary Heroes
Laura McQuarrie — July 24, 2014 — Pop Culture
Although we only usually get to see the most action-packed shots from the lives of superheroes, these art pieces present them as pretty ordinary heroes that require a day off just like anyone else.
The illustrations, ads and sculptures show what superheroes might look like if they got fat, took time to lounge around on the couch, grew old or did things like the rest of us, including snap selfies and share pictures on social media. Although we've got these perfect images of the way superheroes look and act in our minds, creations like these cause the masks these vigilantes were to slip a little bit, since most of them happen to be very human-like anyway.
