Vintage-Style Aquaman Poster - 2010

sg
A couple people have sent me links to this cool Aquaman poster, part of a whole series centered around the stars of the DCU.

Modern and retro at the same time, they're pretty cool. Check 'em out!

The placement of the bubbles makes it appear he farted underwater. Just sayin ;)

If DC were smart, they would jump in and license those SO QUICK.

Holly--

According to what it says on that link, the artist was selling prints of them, and DC told him to cut it out.

Those are all really cool. Nice work!

Nice... such a simple way of showing the character, but different to the usual poses AM gets chucked into. I like it!

Rob -- that's what I mean. Fine, they don't want the guy selling them on his own, that makes sense from a licensing pov. I just think it would have been smart of them to enter into a deal with him to sell them as official DC merchandise, instead of just cutting him off.

Holly--I agree, and I bet DC would've been happy to give the guy the license.

But they charge such an unbelievable, astronomical fee for it I'm sure the guy couldn't afford it. I know I couldn't when I looked into Aquaman Shrine t-shirts!
