Planet Travel Posters Sets Mars & Venus by Ron Guyatt

The Project:
Space tourism is still a long ways off, but it’s not hard to imagine that someday, tourists will visit the natural geological landmarks of other worlds much like they tour the Grand Canyon, Mount Everest or Ayers Rock. Each of these great tourist destinations needs a classic retro travel poster to entice visitors. Until the day people settle off world and make their own destinations many of these may be the places that people will want to travel too. I hope that these posters can inspire people to think beyond our world to the limitless possibilities of the Universe.

Except obviously for the tiny detail that the thumb up/thumb down is a myth, probably created by this very painting or some of the same period.
The Emperor, and ONLY the Emperor, showed a closed fist or an open hand to decree the fate of a gladiator, in these cases.
Just like the “roman salute” never happened, and again is a myth created after some French painter depicted the romans doing it, in the late 1800s.
Early memes, if you will.
Right, that’s the point of the poster. A “like” from the emperor was life, not death.
Yeah, but the “like” the image refers to is facebook’s “thumb up” icon, I assume.

Batman Edition Matte Black Aventador
The only way I’d own such an expensive car.
Apart for the bat, there is one that I saw parked near my office at least two or three times… when you look up how many of those cars exist, it’s a bit bizarre to see it parked in an alley ;)

Life-Death I & II are a very beautiful story centered around Storm.
The first one, from october 1984 (Uncanny X-men #186); Claremont wrote an arc in which fellow mutant Forge develops a mutant power neutralizing gun. The intended target is another X-Man, Rogue, but Storm is hit instead, taking away her powers. Forge takes her back to his home in Dallas, Texas to recover. With his help, she adjusts to life without her powers, and they fall in love. When Storm overhears that Forge built the weapon that took her powers, she is heartbroken and leaves him. (wikipedia)
The second, one year later, in october 1985 (Uncanny X-men #198); This story show Ororo returning to Africa, just to find herself and discover that she don’t need her powers to be who she is.
Ororo restores her powers only in 1988
Claremont wrote arguably the best X-Men run ever.
Also… Man, Barry Windsor-Smith: unmistakable style. Mesmerising.
