04/25/14 Top 3 Pick: Clown College

Come on up boys and girls! Don’t be shy! This circus clown college is ready for new future evil clowns. Interesting trio of scary clowns with Joker front and center, the ring leader. I enjoy the details of the old circus style sign in the background. The repetition of Joker’s sinister smile on the balloons help give this design a creepy feeling. But rest assured, there is a dark vigilante watching over. The batman symbol is nicely tucked, hiding behind the sign front and center.

04/25/14 Top 3 Pick: The Demented King

“Fool! Your powers are no match for my magical crown!” This Ice King dominates the design demonstrating hierarchy. I enjoy the large comic style letter forms along with the little labels and text bubbles. I especially enjoy the question mark shaped text bubble posing a question. Well balanced pyramid composition. The characters on the sides are portrayed smaller and in monotone yellow creating dimension. The yellow color  allows the characters to not get lost and pop off the dark blue background.

Thank You David Bear

04/25/14 Top 3 Pick: Into Madness

Blood and chaos, the mind of a killer. Interesting style of image making. The collage style design composed of a large face surround by lifeless bodies visually describes the inner thoughts of a killer. The open mouth in the center surrounded by visual complexity is very visually appealing and captivating. The  typography treatment is very similar to the style used for the show. I like the combined ‘nn’ glyphs and the lowering of its baseline which creates a sharp peak in the form.

Na na na na na na Batman! Here we have Batman’s Rogues Gallery rendered in the style of Andy Warhol. Wonderful use of block colors and simple lines to form these infamous villains. The colors create very interesting shapes and dynamic negative spaces all contained within a grid composition.

04/15/14 Top 3 Pick; The Cannibal

“The Devil is in the details.” This design has both in spades! This horned figure is made up of amazing line work. The thick and thin line variation nicely show the contours in the face. The disembodied head with red eyes looks dark and malevolent.

Tip: This shirt is best enjoyed with some fava beans and a nice chianti.

04/15/14 Top 3 Pick; Little Robin

Every hero needs a sidekick right? Meet the original sidekick, Batman’s Robin! A hilarious literal interpretation of the character’s moniker. He’s ready in his gear to fly by and fight crime. His little garment, gloves, and mask are delicately illustrated. I enjoy the soft earth tones color scheme.

Thank You Juan Foo
