Dances With Wolves

Dances With Wolves by Peter Kramar

The fact that this tee works even if you don't know the movie reference is testament to how good it is. The vintage style cartoon characters just look like they are having so much fun dancing away. It is a retro cool all over pattern print with a hidden parody. I wonder how long it would take people to connect the civil war soldiers, American Indians and wolves to the film.

Extra Terrestrials

Extra Terrestrials by Glen Brogan

The aliens are massing and poor Elliot will have to pedal really hard to move all that weight. I am loving the total geekiness of having all these guys together.

Sleigher

Sleigher from 8Ball

I have another Christmas themed tee for Boxing Day. While yesterdays shirt was horror themed, this bad boy is a funny parody. I would love to rock one of these at a Slayer concert.

Death in the Stars

Death in the Stars from 604 Republic

I really like tees that come out of left field but this one made me laugh too. Double win. Turning the Death Star into the Grim Reaper is very clever in itself yet it is the detail that makes it. The most noticeable is the light saber scythe. On a deeper level all stars are death dealers. These giant balls of flaming gas will kill you if you get too close, are exposed to their radiation or go supernova.

Generic Band Shirt

Generic Crazy Band Shirt by Justin White

This really made me laugh because I can relate. Lets face it I look at a lot of tees. There is a real trend of animals wearing an item of human clothing and it has been around for quite some time. Although many bands use the theme it is not confined just to that genre.

Alien Eats Alien

Alien Eats Alien from Pampling

Yes it is a funny tee but what really got to me about this was the amazing difference between the two creatures. Space Invaders and Alien were both first released in the late seventies (about a year apart). The fact that one has really stood the test of time is a real testament to the artist behind it, H.R.Giger. The Invaders actually look like cookies compared to the horror of Alien, which makes a lot of sense in this scene.

Super Embarrassment

Super Embarrassment by Kerry Callen

This is one of the funniest super hero tees I have ever seen. I literally laughed out loud. The reason it works so well is that it could really happen. We all make mistakes and I'm sure the man of steel is no different. The illustration itself is so good that at first you don't actually get the joke. You have to read the speech bubbles and take a second look at the artwork for it to sink in. The subtle texturing to age it around the edges finishes it beautifully. I never thought that I would come across a Superman tee that I would actually wear but I really want this.

We've Got Some Work To Do Now

We've Got Some Work To Do Now by Travis Pitts

Yay Threadless has finally reprinted this awesome Scooby Doo design. You may have seen the picture before as it has been plastered all over the net. Not surprising really. Scooby and Velma looking all tough and mean during a zombie apocalypse, what's not to love.

Yeah I Work Out

Yeah I Work Out from Junk Food Clothing

This is how I roll, ripped purple pants outta control. I'm nerdy and I know it.

Dead Elvis Jail House Dump

Dead Elvis Jail House Dump from Chalked

Cliche Alert!!!. Fat Elvis with junk food and drugs sitting on the toilet. Yeah nothing new there. Rather than the subject matter it is the style of the artwork that makes this tee so unique. While all the set props have been rendered realistically the King himself has been done in a chalk effect. I find that really interesting as it is a parody of the chalk outlines drawn around dead bodies by forensic scientists. The hound dog tucked into the corner is just the icing on the cake.

Thomas The Assault Engine

Thomas The Assault Engine by midgerock

This could be the greatest steampunk / pop culture mashup ever. Thomas the Tank Engine has gone all transformer and turned into a steam powered weapon of war. He really is a very useful engine. I like to imagine the show would be something like Wild Wild West 2 voiced by Ringo.

Revenge Of The Radio Star

Revenge Of The Radio Star by Pedro Josue Carvajal Ramirez

Video only thought it had killed the radio star. After surviving the vicious attack the radio star recuperated and plotted the demise of video. This is revenge on a grand scale.

Revenge of the Californian Swamp Creature

Revenge of the Californian Swamp Creature by Steven Rhodes

Even though this tee is meant as a joke it took me right back to my childhood in the eighties. After the success of movies like Teenwolf and The Lost Boys, creature movies were all the rage, accompanied by a thumping, dodgy rock soundtrack. All of a sudden B grade creature movies were being played everywhere and they just seemed to get sillier. This is just a perfect homage to that period, even down to the bright purple shirt color.

Philosophy Fighter

Philosophy Fighter from 604Republic

Let the battle of minds and ideas commence. The ultimate video game for the deep thinker is here. Welcome to Philosophy Fighter. It is an all out nerdfest.

Land Of Lovecraft

Land Of Lovecraft by nikholmes

I have friends who are World Of Warcraft tragics so I really got a kick out of this tee. It is funny to think that Lovecraft created scarier monsters in print than a whole team of game artists and designers could ever conceive. Cthulhu FTW.

Silly Nameless Terror

Silly Nameless Terror from 6 Dollar Shirts

What a mash up. H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu drawn as Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse. You could go reading a lot into this as there are a lot of wild stories about Walt circulating the net. Everything from him beating up children to being a Nazi. I prefer to look at it as a bit of tongue in cheek fun and for just 6 bucks you can't go wrong.

Silver Smurfer

Silver Smurfer by CoDdesigns

A mashup of pure awesomeness. Cross the Silver Surfer with the Smurfs and you get this cool tee. I really like how the artwork looks like the cover of an old comic book. It is like having a childhood in an alternate universe.

I Love The Smell Of Bacon In The Morning

I Love The Smell Of Bacon In The Morning by Synaptees

It is time to get all manly in this man cave and pump the internet full of testosterone. There is nothing more manly than Apocalypse Now and bacon. In fact it sounds like the best night in ever. I can feel my chest hair quivering. I better stop before I start grunting like Tim the Tool Man Taylor.

Baredevil

Baredevil by CoDdesigns

I always found the idea of a blind superhero a bit ludicrous. Yes the blind have their other senses heightened but there is no way they could swing around from rooftop top rooftop and fight baddies. Heck they would not even know what color clothing they are wearing. This tee takes that idea to the next level, imagining the hero without clothes at all. I am not sure if he has decided that he does not need clothes or if he forgot them but at least he has a mask to protect his identity.

Star Wars Psycho

Psycho from Camiseta

Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho has one of the best known movie scenes of all time. Even people who have never seen the movie know the shower scene. It has been parodied ad nauseum so coming up with something fresh is a big ask. To the best of my knowledge this is the first time it has been teamed up with Star Wars. I am glad that it now has because the comic effect is priceless. I want one of these tees so badly.
