I was reading through some of my favorite sites the other day and came across this great article on Topless Robot.
I don't remember Nerds mentioned in the Bible
Apparently, the Westboro Baptist Church have a few f*ckin’ insane religious nuts whose previous escapades included but are not limited to:
- Protesting Heath Ledger’s Funeral because he played a gay cowboy in one of his thousand movies.
- Threatening to protest Ronnie James Dio’s Funeral because he was well, himself.
- Running the website GodhatesAmerica dot com. Because we all know we are the next Sodom.
- Running the website Godhatesfags dot com. I got nutten…
Are going to be protesting this years San Diego Comic Con(SDCC). Here is what TR(Topless Robot) had to say:
Because, as we all know you can not dress as a comic book character, buy a toy of a comic book character, or read a story about a comic book character without worshiping that character as a god. It’s an impossibility to enjoy fiction without believing those characters are the creators of the universe which we must acknowledge through prayer and worship (I remember the time I was young and watching Sesame Street, and killed my pet rabbit in the name of Super Grover. Kids sacrifice the darnedest things!).
I highly recommend you head over to read the full article on this subject. Don’t forget to read the comments, I think some of them are better than the article itself.

These pictures are AWESOME. With that being said, they are a little on the risque side – artsy, but risque. Now that I have that out of the way, onto the good stuff!
I came across these amazing drawings a couple of weeks ago. My first thought was “Sh*t, how did I end up on one of those freaky Japanese hentai sites?” Then, I realized there wasn’t enough tentacles, the girls still have shirts on, and the artwork was just way to good, professional, mainstream, <insert adjective here> for that stuff. Plus you have to notice that they are not trying to kill anyone. Not that I look at those sites mind you. Nope, these drawings were done by acclaimed comic book artist J. Scott Campbell. If the drawings look familiar in style, then you might want to look at Campbell’s earlier work of Danger girl and Gen 13.
Some amazing stuff huh? Well if you like his stuff, he is now working with Marvel Comics on a special Spider-Man comic. Let us not focus on what he has coming up, but let us look at what he is working on now…these sinful sketches are from the Fairy Tale Fantasy collection and are available as limited run prints.
And without further adieu…the rest of the pictures.
Christopher Uminga is a freakin’ genius! He is the mastermind behind the paintings/drawings I am posting on here. I really like the way he paints everything so zombie like. His drawings have so much to say while truly being painted in a surreal way.
I am an illustrator and a painter. I see monsters in my head and I put them on paper or canvas and let them play.This is my art;I paint and draw things that make me happy.
My favorite painting that I have posted has to be The Joker. The absolute insanity Christopher portrays in his eyes is awesome. The blood stained card and hands – exceptional! Let us not forget he painted The Joker in true form to the original Joker in the Batman series, right down to his corsage. What he paints is true new age masterpieces.
I know I posted mostly, OK, entirely comic book characters, but he also creates more than just that. If it goes bump in the night or possibly in the day, Christopher will paint it, hell he will even paint your insanities for a price. If you want to check out more of his work or commission him to paint you a masterpiece, you can click here. If you really like his stuff and want to have updates of what he is doing you can befriend him on FaceBook here. Oh, and if you want to get updates from me on FaceBook, click here. I know…shameless plug.
