Picture of the Day: Superheroes! The Ultimate Situation Room Meme
It takes a mighty big picture to get this weird. I love how prominent they made J'Onn J'Onzz, because all that green draws your eyes right to him. This is also the best executed mash-up, with Robert Gates totally looking the part. This could very well end up being one of the most widely circulated Martian Manhunter images of all time once it's done making the rounds. I've sure seen it enough times without trying. Despite previous associations with Superman and Spider-Man, I'm really glad Obama ended up as Captain America. Not only do the colors suit him, but it's a nice zing after all that Birther nonsense (while anticipating the inevitable "Osama isn't really dead" push back.)
I truly loved the photo, and thought that J'Onn was the best done of the lot. I think that a lot of people are going to look at this. It might raise his profile a bit.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like I was sadly mistaken...

M.C., I was just looking at that image a few hours ago. I plan on devoting a quick post to it, or else I'll leave it until the solicits go up next week. I liked your reveal better.
ReplyDeleteFrank can you tell who the characters are all suppose to be. The ones in the far back are hard to tell.

Re: James Clapper; I was thinking Black Lightning?
ReplyDeleteoh man how do people come up with stuff like this? :)
ReplyDeleteSo you're saying the guy who photoshopped this was Geoff Johns?
ReplyDeleteBoom goes the dynamite.
