marvel takes springfield

Yo! And behold! An amazing accomplishment from a simple fellow looking to have a little fun! This right here is the newest collection of characters illustrated by designer Dean T Fraser for his project “Springfield Punx!” He’s been at this for little over a year drawing these characters strictly as a personal adventure. What Dean does is take celebrities as well as fantasy characters of fame, transforming them into residents of the Simpsons’ Springfield! This newest set of his is just what the comic nerd ordered: Marvel Comics!

Dig on the common denominator.

The yellowness!

The round noses!

In this fabulous set from Dean, you’ll get all your favorites! The Fantastic Four, Deadpool, X-Men, Blade (Wesley Snipes version,) Iron Fist, Spider Man, Dare Devil, Silver Surfer, The Hulk (including She Hulk!,) Ghost Rider, Punisher, Ms. Marvel(?!,) Thor, Luke Cage, Namor the Sub-Mariner, Iron Man, Captian America, and everyone inbetween – 58 illustrations of 50+ individual superheroes and superheroins!

And bonus! I added an older set of his from his blog: the one and only Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (including Shredder, of course.)

Springfield Punx is a little pet project of mine. The idea of doing fan art parodying some of my favorite characters and stars in such a fun and simple style got me hooked immediately. Some of these guys and gals have appeared on the Simpsons and I could just work from that, but most I had to do from scratch.

Lemme re-note here that this is a personal project of Dean’s called Springfield Punx and it’s not officially affiliated with Marvel Comics, Mirage (TMNT,) or the Simpsons in any way other than in friendly parody.

Just for the taste of it!
