Batman Villains Get All Mixed Up
I feature art on the site here all the time, but this is one of the cooler projects I’ve come across in a while. The artist in question is Eric Y. Huang, and he’s put a new twist on the concept of a mash-up.
Usually a mash-up causes two separate universes to collide, like Chorno Trigger Winnie the Pooh, but here he’s done some combinations within a singular universe.
He’s taken nearly all of the most famous Batman villains and combined them with each other. The results? Pretty fantastic. Joker/Riddler, Penguin/Freeze, Bane/Croc, Catwoman/Ivy and more you can find below.
What is it about Batman villains that are more iconic than ones from any other comic? Superman’s rivals don’t get nearly this kind of press, neither does anyone in the Marvel universe.
I think that Batman’s villains are more iconic mainly because of their depictions in movies and the animated series. Same goes for Spiderman, he probably has the most iconic rogue’s gallery in the Marvel universe and I think that’s mainly because we know them from tv.
Credit where credit is due though, Batman does have some of the most kickass villains (not counting the mad hatter and ventriloquist)
