Future Corruption

Station Zero

This is my piece for Light Grey Art Lab’s Station Zero exhibition. Each artist was given a pulp paperback novel from the golden age of Sci-fi, it was then our challenge to update the cover into a 18x24in poster. I am not exaggerating when I say that the pieces in this show are out of this world awesome (pun completely intended), you can check out all the submissions here! Just do it you will not be disappointed. If you are in Minneapolis the reception is July 19th and will remain on display until August 10th. If you are so inclined, you can buy a print of my poster here.

Wonder Woman Redesign

I Have always thought Wonder Woman should look more like a warrior, and less like a pinup. The Amazons of Classical Greek lore were from the region of Scythia. I wanted her outfit to reflect that culture and be almost ceremonial.

Meteor Hammer

I know her lasso is one of her Icons. But it comes from the lurid bondage themes of pulp comics, and felt to pinup to me. So I modified it to an exotic warriors weapon, a Meteor Hammer, a length of rope with weighted ends, think Gogo Yubari from Kill Bill.

Death Mask

She needs a way to protect her identity, so I gave her a Ceremonial Death Mask she could wear into battle. It would be good for headbutting too.

Update!

Awesome all around person Rachel’ghul @DarthRachel did this unbelievably great cosplay of my Wonder Woman redesign. It looks perfect! It’s a really amazing thing to have someone bring your imagination to life so wonderfully! She has an fantastic blog you should check out to! scienceofdiscontent.tumblr.com/

Birds of Prey, Redesign

Bat Girl and Black Canary

I re-imagined Birds of Prey as a “Vigilante Scooter Club”, tough and sporty roller-derby type girls with DIY costumes that are functional, but also fashionable enough for Gotham’s trendiest dive bars.

Birds of Prey, like every “Vigilante Scooter Club”, needs a logo/patch for their jacket, below Black Canary shows it off.
