Pop Culture MASH-UPS_WEEK 2: THE MUPPETS

[hamgravy]

Following Week 1's STAR WARS thread, I'm going with a crew that's keen on parody and really versatile when it comes to mashing up with other pop properties - THE MUPPETS!

I'll start it off but please post em if you got em. Or, even better, draw your own...

[hamgravy]

This whole batch comes from con sketches and commissions by Boom! Muppet artist, Amy Mebberson.

Man, I'd be all over this if I didn't spend all night working on comic pages. So tired.

Jump on whenever you re-charge. I hope to do one of my own next week...

Threadless currently has a Muppet design challenge and there are a couple of mashups in there. Here are my favorite:

Beaker/Eraser Head is lovely.

Great thread...art bug just bit. :) Got two ideas(so far) for this thread.

[hamgravy]

Love that Breaking Bad (Beaker Bad?) one.

Here's what I came up with Spider-Frog and Piggy Jane and the Legion of BOOM.

Legion of Boom is awesome!

And the Spidey one is oddly, sensual.

Um, had the idea for the Muppets as the Seven Samurai. So I assigned them all a character, and started with two for now.

Awesome - and I really dig Animal's expression.

Oh, and for nerdiness' sake: Kermit = Kambei, Fozzie = Shichiroji, Gonzo = Heihachi, and Animal = Kikuchiyo. Three more to go.

[hamgravy]

Rad work, Matthew.

Imagining doing the Photoshop work on his little felty froggie crotch is unsettling.
