Pop Icons In A Different Light

EDIT: Unbeknowst to the author of this post (as these pictures were gathered from various image sites), as mentioned by multiple commenters, a lot of these have been produced as t-shirts and can be purchased from Grabist, Threadless, Shirt Woot! ,Tee Fury and Glennz Tees.

Check out Part 2 in this series here and Part 3 here.

There were a lot of funny ones, but I think my favorite was the one of Vader catching the storm trooper skipping work on Facebook! I bet the next scene is Vader choking said storm trooper and possibly while updating facebook…

Stop stealing artwork from other websites, or at least attribute your sources.

    It is, if he isn’t linking back to the site’s he got it from, he’s getting all of this digg ad revenue and the people who drew them aren’t

  Really? Did you not pay attention to the images? They “stole” works from others too! Right. Such an idiotic remark.
  
  Remember when you were a kid and taught to share? No? Explains quite a bit.

Come on, ripping off t-shirt designs? And not crediting the real artists? Not cool.

Most if not all of these are T-shirt designs from shirt.woot.com.

Some of these are from Glenz Tees as well (I know for a fact that the Pac Mac in a cage is, and I think a few others).

Jackass content scraper.

All you had to do was link each one to it’s source, and no one would be mad. The companies would have enjoyed the sales.

  Too all you idiots making remarks about stealing, then saying its from a tshirt site.. are you retarded?
  This is NOT from tshirt sites, they stole it just as much as this guy did, atleast this guy doesnt sell them…
  ALL the tshirt sites stole them from somewhere else to begin with, ignorant fucks-.-

    not true. shirt.woot.com has people submit designs and then members vote on the ones they want to be sold as t-shirts and the designer gets some of the profit. next time you should do some research so you don’t look like an idiot.

I found this via Reddit, where quite a few users wrote about the sources of many of these images. It’d be cool if you could edit the links in to credit them properly. See the comments here: http://www.reddit.com/r/funny/comments/cj9kg/pop_icons_seen_in_a_different_light_really_clever/

  Also, based on the links you have for sharing it seems like you aren’t even aware of reddit and it’s potential ;P

Anyone know where the TMNT shirt with the four turtles heads came from? I’ve spent some time trying to find the image on the internets to no avail. I think I can get my wife to wear that shirt (if it is a shirt somewhere), which would be a small victory against her boring non-pop cultured wardrobe.

Since you’re pulling ad revenue, dude, the least you can do is spend ten whole minutes on tineye and link up the pics to the stores (or original artists)…

These are fantastic! All of them! Rocksteady and Bebop was probably the one I laughed the most “out loud” at. Very creative.

I agree with the rest though, no credit = stealing.

Would have been more convenient for users to link to each t-shirt, which site has the Darth Vader busting the Storm Trooper on Facebook design? Love it.
