Immortal Beloved



If, like me, you're a child of the mid-70s, and if, like me, you're a nerd (mini or otherwise), your imaginative landscape is partly painted by the animated TV programs of the 80s (and really, has there been a more inventive decade for mainstream genre entertainment? I think not - but that's a topic for another post).

What I want to blow the trumpet for right now is a gang of scary-talented artists who've done a wonderful job reimagining characters from our televisual histories, all for the purposes of friendly creative competition. I like the idea that a fictional persona can live forever as he or she is parsed through the minds (and eyes) of a different generation inspired by the creators who came before them.

Example: take a look at this masterpiece reinterpretation of my favorite Master of the Universe, the boy's dream Trap-Jaw - half-monster, half-weapon, all cool:



I had a hard time working up the courage to make this fellow my desktop background. The Trap-Jaw I knew was happy to be a grotesque man-machine hybrid, enjoying his ability to blow away enemies, hook himself to lengths of rope, and come to grips with whatever he wanted - all from one interchangeable robot arm.

The above painting of the character pulls off a discomfiting portrayal of loss and pain, capturing what it might actually feel like to be trapped in his skin (and steel).

Kudos to "max-cant", who did the deed of immortalizing Trap-Jaw. There are also some excellent renditions of Skeletor to be found at the link that houses these artworks, including a super kinky pairing of the bony one with his gal pal Evil-Lyn that I won't display here because I fancy mine a family-friendly blog. But do check it out:

Oh, that I shared these folks' illustrative talent!

We do have at least one thing in common, though.

Our brains were likewise polluted by the kickass imaginative entertainments of the 80s.
