Superheroes are no strangers to re-imagings, but Yanni Davros is stirring things up with his epic renditions of what Batman, Spider-Man and Iron Man would look like decades from now. Just saying "badass" doesn't accurately emphasize how cool these images are.
I want to point out, in particular, Yanni Davros' version of Iron Man. The way he melds organic elements into the suit -- Iron Man's biceps for example -- with mechanical elements is truly inspired and actually puts current renditions of the character to shame.
Yanni Davros is a self-employed concept artist based in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. He is definitely no stranger to painting things that are ahead of their time as looking through his portfolio will yield a number of StarCraft 2-inspired illustrations.
