My little brother got into outer space and stuff so my step-mom bought him a place mat with all the planets on it. When I first saw it, I was upset, because it was newer and so Pluto wasn’t labeled. I was about to say something when I noticed something…
Pluto is there.
The artist remembered Pluto.
Guys…
The artist drew Pluto crying.

Yeah… This actually makes no sense. I just kept hallucinating that the Avengers were playing around on my dash, and the only way to stop it was to let them escape all over my sketchbook.

EDIT: You can now get these these as icons here.
By popular demand, here is the Robin Converse All-Star available for purchase through the following link. You need only place the iconic Robin logo over the traditional Converse emblem and you’ll be ready to bust some crime in your boss-ass kicks!!!
Some fonts get no respect. This is true of Comic Sans, the ’90s-era Microsoft typeface that sought to emulate comic book text and failed miserably, by most accounts.
The font’s childish, unsophisticated scrawl and overuse by armchair designers has rendered it taboo in most artistic circles, and the sophisticated web at large enforces a moratorium on its use. Some have even campaigned to rid the web of it forever.
But despite the haters, French designers Thomas Blanc and Florian Amoneau have sought to spark a movement. Their new Tumblr, entitled the Comic Sans Project, tries to re-imagine the much-maligned font by posing a simple aesthetic question: What if the world’s most recognizable logos used Comic Sans?
“We have been inspired by all the jokes about Comic Sans we heard and read on the Internet every day,” says Blanc. “We wanted to create our own personal joke with those ironic logos. At the same time, we actually tried to defend Comic Sans [by] posting only logos which look good enough to us. Some of them work pretty well!” (article via Mashable)
This might be my new favorite tumblr. It’s still a horrible font, but the idea behind this project is kind of brilliant.
