Shirts Feature Iconic Superhero Mashups
TrendHead — December 5, 2008 — Art & Design
Who hasn’t dreamed of mixing Batman and Superman, but Darth Vader and Superman? Now that is a geeky mashup. These pop art superhero tee shirt prints are made by UK artist Reece Ward.
The artist says these iconic mixtures are all about embracing your inner geek. I would only go as far as buying the Obama print as a postcard. I guess Obama can pass as a superhero these days--as well as Santa Claus (after all, Christmas is near), but what a brilliant image.
