The Retcon Punchers spend an awful lot of time looking for ways to celebrate our nerdy obsessions. This means a lot of time sunk into scouring Etsy, Deviant Art, Think Geek or whatever. Sometimes we see things so great we just have to share them… and then clutch them fiercely to our collective chest. Throw it in The Vault.
Website: The Art of Mark Dos Santos
Who Would Love This: Batman fans, Norman Rockwell fans, fans of irony and Americana
Price: $10.00
This edition of the Vault is special, because NOT ONLY did I get the distinct pleasure of meeting Mr. Dos Santos at C2E2, I actually purchased this fine print, along with two others. This is one of those sorts of prints that I call “secret nerd art.” These are probably more obvious than, say, my Firefly vintage travel posters, but they still count. I love things that, at a glance, are not nerdy at all. It’s only if you look closer and are a nerd that you see just how big of a geek I am. I am going to frame all three of these lovely signed prints and hang them proudly in my living room. Plus, Mr. Dos Santos informed me that is going to be starting a Kickstarter to make a coffee table style art book of his prints, so keep your eyes open for that.

I can’t express how much the Bat-Pig freaks me out. FREAK. OUT.
It’s weird that Catwoman is there, and having such a good time. Also, HOLY CRAP, is that Scarecrow terrifying.
It’s kind of a Leatherface/Scarecrow hybrid, which I’ve never seen before but is obviously the most horrifying thing in the world.
So, at C2E2, I was walking and looking at something, and I almost walked right into someone. So, I turned around, preparing to apologize to whomever I had almost plowed into, AND IT WAS LEATHERFACE.
I assume you were promptly murdered?
Oh, of course.

I bought these prints too. They are awesome and will soon be adorning my kitchen/dining space.
