LEGO Comic Book Covers

This Artist Recreates Superhero Comic Book Scenes Using Toy Blocks

— August 18, 2015 — Pop Culture
Artist David Whalen created a collection of LEGO comic book covers and scenes of popular superheroes. The images feature iconic superheros that are re-imagined as LEGO figurines.

While there are existing superhero LEGO toys, these images contain authentic comic book elements. For example, some of the LEGO comic book images look exactly like a comic book cover with prices, titles and eye-catching motion illustrations. Each image has quirky speech bubbles and sound-emphasizing text to fully embody the nostalgia of its comic book inspirations.

Although many superhero books are considered an old-school source of entertainment, these images combine playful pieces of literature and toys to create a modernized piece of art. The images contain both DC and Marvel superheros such as Superman, Batman and The Hulk.
Trend Themes
1. LEGO Comic Book Art - Creating LEGO comic book art presents opportunities for artists to re-imagine popular superhero franchises in a playful and nostalgic manner.
2. Authentic Comic Book Elements in Toy Designs - Combining comic book elements with toys may increase consumer interest as it emphasizes the authenticity of the superhero storylines being portrayed.
3. Modernized Pieces of Art - Creating modernized pieces of art through a fusion of literature and toys can breathe new life into traditional forms of entertainment.
Industry Implications
1. Toy Industry - Combining toys and comics into one product may increase revenue and attract a new, younger demographic.
2. Art Industry - Creating playful pieces of art that blend different artistic mediums may stimulate interest and sales from art enthusiasts.
3. Publishing Industry - Collaborating with toy companies or artists to create new and innovative ways to present traditional comic book content may lead to increased profits and consumer engagement.
