Extremely Skilled Artist Creates Marvel and Pop Culture Fan Art Like You've Never Seen Before

Canadian illustrator Jean Pascal Kegle has a knack for turning pop culture favorites into eye-catching fan art, and his work stands out fast. He is also an eight-time national powerlifting champion, which makes his creative output feel even more unexpected.

From Marvel and DC to anime and classic video games, his illustrations cover a wide range of fandoms, with each piece packed with detail and personality. He is also building his own sci-fi comic, Beyond the Void, so there is plenty more on the way.

Scorpion is a resurrected ninja in the fighting universe of Mortal Kombat and is most certainly considered the game's mascot. His name is Hanzo Hasashi, and he debuted as an original character in the very first version of the game... in the arcade!

Not only is he one of the original characters, but he holds a particularly unique distinction (along with Raiden and at least one version of Sub-Zero) of being a playable character in every single subsequent version of the Mortal Kombat games. He has been portrayed as both a villain and a supporting character.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage released on October 1, 2021, and continues the story of Eddie Brock, who is still struggling to coexist with the shape-shifting extraterrestrial Venom. "When deranged serial killer Cletus Kasady also becomes host to an alien symbiote, Brock and Venom must put aside their differences to stop his reign of terror."

After completing his run as Iron Man at the end of Avengers: Endgame, Robert Downey Jr. told Stephen Colbert it was the "greatest joy" to experience Iron Man by playing the character. He said:

“It was all there in the universe to begin with, and that’s why I think the Marvel comics have been so numinous to kids, grownups, and people. There’s this love for it because it speaks to the world, but it also speaks to the democratic American projected dream, which is far more complicated than that (laughs). But there’s an ideal there that’s always been trying to express itself, and strangely, in some ways, the best of it has been expressed in these little two-hour segments of entertainment.”
