Batman 3 Fan Art....Amazing Stuff!

Okay a very quick update and I'm off to finish my stuff again. I just had to post this. This person on devianArt has been illustrating posters for quite some time and ever since he put up his latest works of art that unofficially relate to the inevitable third Batman flick, sites like JoBlo and Slashfilm have picked up his work and in return have sent him shiploads of traffic. Sure, there are some flaws here and there but this dude's got some serious talent! I practically work on Photoshop every day and yet have not a clue on how he conjured-up these posters! Effin' realistic stuff. The third Batman film is supposedly called 'Gotham City'...which in my opinion would blow because it reminds me of that retarded R.Kelly song from the Batman & Robin (*ugh*) soundtrack. Don't remember that one? Let me torture your senses a bit. Here are the lyrics : "City of justice *yeah*, city of love. City of peace, for every one of us...'cause we all need it *uh* can't live without it...Gotham City, *oh yeah*."

City of justice, love, AND peace? Is he singing about a different Gotham City? That corny sonoffab*tch.

Anyway, click HERE to see a lot more of his work including posters featuring The Riddler, some Wonder Woman art, and even 'The Dark Knightress'(?). Oh, and there's this one shot with Batman and Catwoman together which looks completely awesome! Oh...I do disagree on The Riddler casting though. In Nolan's world, nobody looks that simple or that true to the comics. Call me cliche', but Johnny Depp would be my pick for a Riddler. The man would totally own the role. Plus, should a third installment happen, you need someone who can make a villain top The Joker...and we all know that's gonna' be harder than getting to the top of Mt.Everest. Enjoy the artwork. Click HERE to see the rest.

PS : I always envisioned a Harley Quinn in Nolan's Gotham, and in all honesty, I've always wanted her to look as creepy as she does in the poster above. A guy with a slashed-up face and clown makeup is one thing...but the eerieness of a girl with the same features can send shivers down your spine! Creeeepy...
