Texas Chainsaw Astronaut: New Moon

Texas Chainsaw Astronaut: New Moon by Nick Volkert

This is one badass, chainsaw wielding astronaut. On top of being an awesome piece of illustration work what I really appreciate about this is the pose. Nearly all astronaut themed tees use the same picture as reference so it is really refreshing to come across one completely different.

I pretty much stopped looking at astronaut themed tees a while ago because most just tend to be a slight variation on a well worn idea. It got to the point of seen one, seen them all. Therefore I was a bit skeptical when told to check this one out. After clicking the link I was pleasantly surprised. I have never seen an astronaut used as part of a propaganda piece before. The message treads a fine line between seriousness and joke, with nothing to let you know which it actually is. I like that a lot.

There are a lot of space theme shirts out there but they all tend to be either skulls in spacesuits or complete sci fi. This is a breath of fresh air with a parody of the famous "Houston we have a problem" line. Stating that you are done with problems while holding a white flag would seem to be giving up but the peace sign gives it a new perspective. It is if the astronaut has given up on Earth and now that he is in space has no problems.
