I’ve mentioned the Clockwork Storybook men more than once on Major Spoilers. We’ve had the pleasure of welcoming Matthew Sturges and Mark Finn to the Major Spoilers Podcast, and while I continue to work on the other two scribes, Chris Roberson surprises the hell out of me by posting Dusty Abell’s fantastic homage to the great sci-fi television series from the 70’s and 80’s. You really need to click the thumbnail below to get the full image and appreciate the work that went into this piece. How many characters and shows can you name? Guess what is now my new…

We’ve already seen what happens when artists get their hands on well known comic book characters and turn them into zombies, but what happens when comic book artist Frederik Peeters decides to push the envelope even further by taking famous dead people and reimagining them as zombies. Yeah, Zombie Ronald Reagan is pretty interesting, but you really don’t want to see Zombie JFK. Portraits of Living Dead via io9
Wonder no more. Then I moved on to drawing this wierd guy. Alan Tew said it looked like a real life Pacman and suggested I draw him eating oreos, I then let him draw the eye on top and the ghost trailing behind him. Thanks Alan! That’s some pretty weird stuff. You’ll have to check out Ottley’s website to see what else he whipped up during Draw Night. via Ryan Ottley
Those who follow the Major Spoilers Twitter feed (www.twitter.com/majorspoilers) know when I’m heading off to bed, I pull that line from the famous MST3K episode featuring Manos: The Hands of Fate. If you don’t know who Torgo is, then I weep for you. For those who do, check out Torgo Jones. via Andrew Dickman
How awesome is Dustin Nguyen? Do you really need yet another example? Okay, since you asked, take the jump for the pencils from Detective Comics #850 featuring Hush’s discovery of the Batcave. Awesomeness Ahead!
Man this pin-up by Dustin Nguyen is smoking! I want this as a poster. Or better yet, I’d love the original piece hanging on my wall. via Deviant Art
I love comic creators and artists who have their own websites to post work to share with the rest of the world. Ryan Ottley is a great example. Not only do we get to see his awesome pencil work from Invincible, but his noodling around, too. Check out his take on the Muppets, and be thankful these guys weren’t looking back at you through the television when you were five. via Ryan Ottley
Who would win in a fight between Batman and Wolverine? Detective Comics artist Dustin Nguyen has the answer in a new piece of art called ‘…it’s an operating table”. The work is, once again, jaw dropping. via Deviant Art
Looks like DC is collecting Paul Dini and Dustin Nguyen’s first six issues of Detective Comics into a hard cover and have asked Dustin to do a whole new cover, that frankly is jaw dropping. so this cover is special to me for many reason. originally, i thought this was a trade paper back, i could still be wrong, but hopefully im not. It is announced as a hardcover. i did this cover about 3 months ago, it collects our first ( dini, derek, and myself and mr milligan guest stars!) 6 issues of our run- special to me #1.…
Check out this beautiful image of Hellboy done by Detective Comics cover artist Dustin Nguyen. Simply awesome. You can see the entire image at Dustin’s Deviant Art page. via Dustin Nguyen
What would happen if the Disney Princesses were recast in Frank Miller’s Sin City? More at Not a Fishing Lure (at least until Disney Legal gets involved). At least they’re keeping it G.
Mike Sterling over at Mike Sterling’s Progressive Ruin has posted a smattering of funny ha-ha’s he whipped up way back in 1996. Check the rest here. via Progressive Ruin
It’s hard to belive Mystery Science Theater 3000 just celebrated its 20th anniversary. There are still plenty of fans who think the show rocks, including Andrew Dickman, who shared some of his quick sketch animation work.

With Watchmen on everyone’s lips, it was only a matter of time before artist interpretations of the characters from the film an comic started popping up on the net. Here’s The Mico’s take on Dr. Manhattan. Looks pretty cool, but to see the rest, you’ll have to head over to his site. via The Mico
