Awesome Splatter Paint Superheros

These Splatter paintings just are completely awesome. When I saw the Batman and Wonder Woman ones I had a nerdgasm. Just kidding…only when I saw the Batman one..so anyways.. This ingenious artist name Arian Noveir has blessed us nerds with some awesome (digital) splatter paintings of just about all the most iconic superheros *minus mighty mouse* and they are fantastic. I want to buy a print of a few myself.

So here are the prints. You can buy them including iPhone covers, laptop covers, shirts, etc…. at Noveir's site society6.com

Here are Superman and Batman

The rest are after the jump. And I recommend checking them out because they include Spider-Man, Hulk, Thor, Iron Man, Wonder Woman, and Hellboy. They are pretty amazing.

The Avengers Trailer!!

Finally we have been blessed with the long-waited for trailer for the upcoming epic nerdgasm film The Avengers. The trailer actually shows more footage then I thought Joss Whedon would allow knowing his vow to secretcy almost on par with J.J. Abrams. The footage looks really amazing and it gives everyone screen time accept I would like to see more of Hawkeye and Hulk. Also, I'm loving Stark's humor, it's fantastic as always.

Summer 2012 will be blockbuster crazy with The Dark Knight Rises, The Amazing Spider-Man, and The  Avengers.

The Avengers assembles on May 4, 2012
