Game of Thrones is officially back on the air and that means a new slew of tributes will be hitting the Internet and beyond; enter this fantasy superhero series created by Mashable illustrator Bob Al-Greene. It re-envisions George R.R. Martin's characters as heroes and villains from the Marvel Universe. The fantasy superheroes include Jon Snow as Iceman, Cersei as Loki, Daenerys as Storm and Arya as Wolverine.
A fun representation that blends two pop culture phenomenons into one, the fantasy superhero series is able to capture the Game of Throne personalities in a different light. Mashable writes, "Who's more sinister, Loki or Cersei? It's uncertain, but one thing's for sure: playing the game of thrones would be a lot more interesting with superpowers."
