Denis Medri Gives Batman and Friends a Rockabilly Makeover [link]

Artist Denis Medri created a series of 1950s-inspired redesigns of characters from Gotham City, transforming Batman’s friends and foes into a stylish cast of rockabilly vigilantes, varsity team sidekicks, and sinister Teddy Boys. From Bruce Wayne’s Batmobile-styled hot rod to Catwoman’s Bettie Page-invoking getup, Gotham has never looked this darn peachy keen.

Pulling inspiration from the ’50s and pop culture, Medri’s rendition of Gotham City is an absolute delight that successfully fuses nostalgia with the Bat-Universe. Barbara Gordon’s redesign pulls directly from Grease, translating the dynamic between Barbara and her alter-ego as Batgirl by borrowing fashion cues from Sandy’s wardrobe. Likewise, Medri’s interpretation of Two-Face resembles a split personality between Happy Days’ Richie Cunningham and an evil Fonzie, while The Riddler greatly resembles 3-D from Back to the Future.

Although most of these redesigns contain a degree of costuming elements with the masks and cowls, Medri’s illustrations serve as fine examples of how to adapt the signature styling elements of the Bat-family and Arkham’s finest into casual yet unique cosplay options, if not wearable retro street fashion. The Nightwing varsity jacket serves as a great styling update to the classic superhero emblem t-shirt, with letterman jackets being on-trend over the past couple of years. The restyling of Harley Quinn and Two-Face are a fine example of the striking effects that simple color-blocking, layers, and pattern mixing can have when coordinating an ensemble.

Dear Doctor Who,

I would like to personally thank you. For many reasons really but for first and foremost giving me the opportunity to meet my girlfriend. We met at the filming in NYC and if that filming hadn’t happened, well then I would not have an exceptionally amazing girl in my life now. Whether you guys know it or not, you help change many peoples lives. So here’s to you. Cheers

Doctor Who brought my sisters and I closer together, and helped me meet my current boyfriend also. My life is full of galactic sized adventures because of him, and because of one doctor!  :)

Malik+Malicia by *sparkley-puffs

this is my cat pumpkin. whenever i am home and working at my L shaped desk, she loves to pester me on it. Her favorite thing to do is to pace from one end of the L to the other end of the L, constantly stepping on my trackpad/keyboard of my laptop which conveniently rests in the junction. after she has finished pacing and complaining to me of her daily happenings, she proceeds to lay down. the problem with this is that she is fairly fat, i like to say she has a watermelon sized body and an apple sized head. so she doesnt exactly fit all the way on my desk with all my monitors and such, so she tends to roll off..all the time. you think she’d learn? but no. so while i’m on my desk i normally have to protect her from rolling off. she’s not the brightest but she’s adorable

“NOW, BABY BROTHER, HOLD MY HAND WHILE WE CROSS THE STREET.”

“Thor, stop that. I’m an adult.”

“HOLD MY HAND, BROTHER.”

“I’m not your brother.”

“HOLD MY HAND.”

“Fine.

“HALT DEAR BROTHER—I HAVE BEEN INFORMED THE PROPER ACTION BEFORE CROSSING A MIDGARDIAN STREET IS TO LOOK BOTH WAYS. ALLOW ME TO DO SO FOR THE BOTH OF US.”

“Thor, every mode of transportation these pathetic humans have created would only bruise us at best—”

“THAT IS NOT THE POINT, BROTHER. AS GODS IT IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO SET AN EXAMPLE FOR THE YOUNGER GENERATION!”

“How many times must I remind you that such sentimental nonsense will have no sway over my decisions?”

“THINK OF THE MIDGARDIAN CHILDREN, BROTHER!”

“…”

“…”

“…THE CHILDREN!”

THE CHILDREN.
