Rockwell Rolls Over In His Grave:"Freedom From Want" Parodies

Thanksgiving is around the corner, and since you, the Toner Mishap audience, have enjoyed my Edward Hopper posts so much, I've decided to share with you a collection of parodies based on Norman Rockwell's painting, "Freedom From Want," from his "Four Freedoms" series. It's that famous Thanksgiving painting -- you know the one:



Here it is in its original poster form:

And here are a bunch I've been collecting for your viewing pleasure (feel free to click on any of them for a larger view).

Marvel's Secret Wars

When I was a kid, Marvel's "Secret Wars" limited series was big news -- it was the reason behind Spidey's black costume, to name only one earth-shattering development. The original cover was drawn by Mike Zeck (above; click it to see it bigger), and "they" apparently keep coming back to the original design, revising it or parodying it a couple of times over the years. Cool.

Here they are as separate images:

Garfield Minus Garfield

We've blogged before about Garfield comics with Garfield's caption bubbles excised, but removing Garfield entirely works even better. Click here for more. [Thanks to Mt. Holly Mayor's Office for pointing it out.]

Make Yourself a Superhero

Make your own superheroes at this awesome Portuguese site (it takes a little while to get used to the Portugese, but it's a WYSIWYG editor, so you'll figure it out). You can customize EVERYTHING; I made a Green Lantern avatar for myself.

Hit the site here, and click on "criar" to start creating.

We never get tired of O.J.

A little something macabre for Halloween: this is a panel from a remix I made of an old O.J. Simpson ad for Dingo boots. With genuine O.J. quotes (as far as I can verify on the web)!

My remix || The original

WTF? Neil Patrick Harris as an Evil Scientist?

Not sure what's going on here, but I'm soooooooooo in.
