Hey kids! Here are some new character designs, with a little added magic, destined for the walls of London and Manchester, maybe even some further north. Making stickers next week. Heading off the week after. WOOOHOOO!!!

The Fool must be hired to redesign every single superhero. Ever.

Alas Mr Null, probably not at this stage. I don't know anyone who can sculpt them. Don't have any contacts into the world of urban vinyl *sigh*. If you know anyone, get 'em to give me a holler

Is there a chance you could shove a couple of these into envelopes and post them to people when you're in the UK?

No this isn't fools work, it's a shoddy rip-off.

It's Ms. Null, actually, but that's immaterial Unfourtunately, I don't know anyone in the toy biz either, though they look like they may be fairly easy to sculpt. Making them poseable, however, is beyond my feeble abilities.

My favorite is now doctorskull!

Hey Broomvondle, why does steriodgirl have elf shoes?

EEKK! sorry Ms. Null. That's what I get for not using indeterminate pronouns! You'd think after all this time on Barbelith I'd know better...

Thas ok. Stickers they'll stay for the time being. Untill some toy company exec comes forth and showers me with cash, LOL!

I'm sure I could manage that. PM us know yur address and I'll make a little package...

I couldn't help myself... she looked so unhappy... So after a visit to the lipstick lesbians she re-emerges to fight crime, with her bulletproof boobs!

Barbelith Exclusive!!!

Very nice work Fool, I think you've given her a bit more Robert Crumb style glamour!

Hey Broomvondle, why does steriodgirl have elf shoes?

Well Liger Null, as you can see more clearly on Fool's image, they're actually not elf shoes, they are the "Bio-bondage-mecha-humanoid-go-go Combat Boots™" which she uses to devastating effect, impaling the private parts of biologically inferior males.

Two more remakes

The chunkyness of these is very appealing, even ignoring the fantastic design sense. Really, really, joyful-looking images. I love Doctorskull, the revamped Steroid Girl, and the two almost-copyright-infringement ones especially.

These are great!
the next question is are WE allowed to plaster them all over light poles and Stop signs in our neigborhoods ?
because Doctorskull definitely needs to be on my studio door at school.

Would it be possible to send some Stateside?

New one, inspired by a japanese print exhibition I saw today.
