Iron Man 2 Screen Print by Mike Saputo

To commemorate the exclusive screening of Iron Man 2 at the Alamo Drafthouse on April 26th, the Alamo Drafthouse commissioned two awesome looking movie screen prints, one by Tyler Stout (seen here) and the other by Mike Saputo. While Stout’s Iron Man 2 print feels much more like a movie poster to me, I really dig Saputo’s screen print because of the way it looks and feels like something you would see on a comic book cover.


The Blot especially really likes the way Saputo depicts Iron Man and War Machine in the throes of battle against Whiplash and his electric whips. Mike Saputo’s Iron Man 2 print measures 24”x36” and is a 6 color screen print, including red and gold metallic inks. The run size and price of Mike’s tribute to the Armored Avenger is currently unknown.

While these prints went on sale at Mondo Tees yesterday (in store only), they will eventually go on sale at the Mondo Tees online store and directly from the artist.

Iron Man 2 Screen Print by Tyler Stout

To commemorate the exclusive screening of Iron Man 2 at the Alamo Drafthouse on April 26th, the Alamo Drafthouse commissioned two very cool looking limited edition movie screen prints. The first is by Tyler Stout and it’s a beauty! Tyler has consistently produced some of the finest movie screen prints over the past two years, and his Iron Man 2 print is no exception (and wouldn’t it look killer next to his Lost screen print “LOST”?).


As a comic book fan, this Stout Iron Man 2 screen print is a must get. I love the way he was able to highlight every main character in the film without taking away from the print’s central figure, Iron Man. I’m also really digging the S.H.I.E.L.D. logo Tyler included in the top left corner right under Scarlett Johansson as the Black Widow.


There are actually two versions of Tyler Stout’s 24”x36” Iron Man 2 screen print (which is freaking huge by the way). The standard version is a 6 color screen print with metallics, was printed on cream paper, has an edition size of 515 and sells for $40 each. The glow in the dark variant Iron Man 2 screen print features 7 colors, including glow inks! The Variant Iron Man 2 screen print is has an even small run size of 130 and will retail for $80 each.

While these prints went on sale at Mondo Tees yesterday (in store only), they will eventually go on sale online at the Mondo Tees online store and at Tyler Stout’s website.

Jonah Hex One Sheet Movie Poster

You know, the one comic book live action movie adaptation The Blot’s heard very little about is this summer’s Jonah Hex. Not only that, but the film’s website is basically non-existent. This lack of hype might be a good thing as it helps to keep expectations low. But when the film’s based on a comic book and is released in the summer, such under promotion is typically a bad sign!


And is it me or does Warner Bros. have absolutely no idea how to capitalize on its DC Comics properties!?! Nothing depresses me more than to see the WB ruin another potential DC Universe franchise. Here’s hoping Jonah Hex surpasses even my low expectations (and Megan Fox has finally learned how to act).

Jonah Hex premieres in theaters nationwide on June 18, 2010.
