06.05.09 NERDGASM: COMIC BOOK HEROES ‘SIMPSONIZED’

simpsonized

In the geekiest-yet-coolest thing I’ve seen since Conan O’Brien’s Super Mario “Tonight Show” set yesterday, a website called Springfield Punx takes popular characters from the worlds of comic books, television, video games, and nerds’ wet dreams and turns them into “Simpsons”-style cartoon characters.  Writes Dean Fraser of his side project:

The idea of doing fan art parodying some of my favorite characters and stars in such a fun and simple style got me hooked immediately. Some of these guys and gals have appeared on the Simpsons and I could just work from that, but most I had to do from scratch.

Dean just finished a week of recreating characters from “Lost,” including Benjamin Linus before and after getting beaten to a pulp.  Frankly, I’m grateful he didn’t make Kate any sexier.  I’ve got kind of an unhealthy thing for cartoons.  I blame Cheetara from “Thundercats.”  And of course Japan.

I’m not really getting the connection between all of these superheroes and Jarome Iginla.

I believe that’s the gay Canadian superhero known as the Calgary Flamer.

If Spock, Letterman and Leno are all superheroes, I have no problem with Jerome Iginla being in there…

I see four Batmans – two because there are two in the collage, and two more because it’s Friday and I’m drunk.

If you are going to have Master Chief, you need to have Solid Snake and Gordon Freeman. It’s a rule.
