There's already an Ultra Combo's worth of fine Street Fighter artwork out there in the world, both in Udon's SF comics and the textured brushwork look Capcom went for in their "Street Fighter 4" games. Brazilian artist Samuel Cazetta Arlindo humanized a few of the games' cast members, however, and his Ryu and Dhalsim are absolutely vicious-looking...

Ugo Santana will surprise you more the longer you look back through his portfolio. He draws some mean stripped-down black and white pieces with the same attention to detail that Chris Samnee uses, but he also has the ability to throw down some thick, killer Geof Darrow-style sketches, and on occasion you may see him break out a shiny Skeletor that looks like he could have been made by a young Bor

Finn's willpower and bravery on "Adventure Time" have been well documented in the past, but deviantART user ShwigityShwonShwei found a lot more in the series' characters with a few power rings from the various Lantern factions. And besides, what does Ryan Reynolds have that Finn lacks...

Batman rogues gallery specialist Dennis Culver has some competition out there in the Internet world of fan art thanks to creator Eiko-Chan.

Pokémon enthusiasts can be capable of some serious feats, including a capella vocal performances, cosplaying marriage proposals and amassing 12,000 Pokémon toys within a confined area. Exceptionally creative fans can even churn out innovative visual takes on the critters, and one such artiste has discovered a way to portray Jigglypuff in a style that could make an appearance in your nightmares ton

Marvel Comics' own tribute to Marvelman hits stores this week in the form of "Marvelman Family's Finest" #1, the first volume in a series of vintage pre-Alan Moore/Neil Gaiman reprints. Legal challenges and ownership questions have kept the hero out of new books for quite some time, but no one has stood in the way of fan art...

Not since Wolverine Art Appreciation Month more than a year ago have we seen the likes of the Logan paintings that Jon Foster's book cover class produced in tribute to George Pratt's "Wolverine: Netsuke" miniseries. These paintings take a dip into some classic Japanese artwork motifs and riff on Wolverine's mystical trip through feudal Japan after being visited in a dream by his former l
