Stephen Edmond has managed to reinvent some of the more popular shows in the 90s with his series 'Sitcomix.'
The Sitcomix series focuses on popular shows. From Alf to Full House, every show that everyone loved has been remade with Stephen Edmond's hand and imagination.
The comic books are designed to add a unique, superhero-inspired twist to the traditional family shows. With a scary Mary Kate Olsen and a battle between Zach and Slater over Kelly (from Saved by the Bell), Stephen Edmond has created some awesome fan art.
Implications - Iconic shows tend to inspire fans to create pieces of work that reflect the characters and their stories in unconventional ways. Fan-made art pieces tend to grab the attention of other fans and promote a movement within that group, creating other fan-generated pieces and discussions.
