I am an official fan of the Mr. Men book series after seeing these 'Mr. Men Superheroes.' Chances are you don't recognize Mr. Men from the name alone, but take a look at a few of the characters in the gallery and tell me you haven't seen one or two of them when you were a child.
Starting to get the picture? Artist Seven Hundred drew an astonishing 82 superheroes/villains in the style of Mr. Men. Click the links to see all 82 of the 'Mr. Men Superheroes.' Ohh, to be a child again.
