Spiderman, Superman and even Batman's nemesis, the Joker are depicted in this image series by Mioxy, entitled 'Superhero Paparazzi Shots'. The image set explores the everyday lives of popular comic book characters and captures the superheros as they shop for their weekly groceries, buy a used car or even indulge in a late night burger treat.

Mimicking celebs, Mioxy explores the dark side of fame in this collection of 'Superhero Paparazzi Shot' portraits. The image set is vibrantly hued and depicts its iconic characters in a way we've seldom seen before.

The art pieces are humorous, witty and even sad at times as Spiderman gets caught vandalizing his beloved city and Batman has to put his prized Batmobile up for sale at a used car lot.
