Looking for New Wallpaper?

For the past couple of Pixar movies I’ve been obsessed with some of the artwork. For The Incredibles, I loved the comic book style promo posters, for Ratatouille there were posters that resembled French Café and now for Wall-e, there are posters that reflect the old 1970’s ride posters Disneyland produced.

After some thorough research, I found out the artist is Eric Tan. According to his blog, he’s a graphic designer/doodler who grew up in San Diego. (And that’s about it) All I really know is I love what’s he’s done and his artwork now graces my computer screen.

P.S. He’s also done some other work and I thought you should check it out. Also, if you want an actual poster, you can go to Acme Archives to purchase one. The problem is they are a bit pricey.

Heroes feeds our TV addiction

I have a somewhat unhealthy addiction to television. That’s why it makes me extremely happy to find a show like Heroes, which indulges my obession.

Heroes is not only a tv show, by an online “graphic novel” or comic book. The show’s website has continually posted weekly comic book issues since the first season. The comic books follow along with the show and even precede what happens on television. This isn’t fan fiction, this in association with the show and connected to, even spoiling, the storyline which take place on television. It’s amazing.

Well, now the wonderful people of Heroes have compiled a book of their comic book issues. While the artwork of these comics is great to admire online, I’m really excited to see that this is in print. If there’s one form of print that will never die, it’s artwork and these novels definitely fit that category.

Look for the book in stores and definitely keep up with the nearly 100 issues on nbc.com/heroes.
