If Video Games Were Comics
(click to enlarge)
This isn’t the first time we’ve featured the art of Rusty Shackles, and it certainly won’t be the last. The illustrator extraordinaire is back with a new series that imagines what it might be like video games got their own comics.
Sure, many of them already do, but they’re not nearly this cool, and Shackles borrows famous covers for his own. From AC to Psychonauts to Metal Gear Solid, it’s a gallery that shouldn’t be missed.
Now, will someone pay him to please make each of these full issues?
When the Assassin’s Creed guy goes to jump he’s going to fall flat on his face.
Perhaps he’s only crouching to hide
There IS an Assassin’s Creed comic…
There is a 12 part comic series for Metal Gear Solid and Sons of Liberty too. The art style just oozes badassery. Check em out or read up on them if you want to. They’re pretty rad.

I don’t think that’s a long red cape, although it looks like it. In II he only wore a small shoulder cape. Jump Ezio, you’re fine!!
So let me see if I get the references right…
1.Spiderman (spectacular spiderman…?)
2.X-men (uncanny?)
3. ? (i feel like I should know it, and I’m sure when someone say’s it I’ll be kicking myself in the ass…maybe Daredevil?)
4.Superman (action comics)
5.Wolverine?
6.G.I.Joe (i believe it’s supposed to be snake eye’s on the original cover)
There was also a Mortal Kombat comic (komic?) back in the day.
