Harley-Davidson spin-out reimagines the cruiser for the electric age

Harley-Davidson and cruiser-style motorcycles fit like a glove, so it's only right that the iconic company's spin-out electric moto project has finally added one to its range – though the LiveWire S2 Mulholland isn't your typical bagger.But first, some history. Harley-Davidson first hinted that an electric moto might join its stable back in 2013 before actually launching the Livewire project and rolling out prototypes the following year. Things went fairly quiet after that, until folks in Europe and the US got to see…

AI Artwork Reimagines Marvel’s X-Men

It's clear that the AI-generated "X-Men" images are directly influenced by their comic and animated counterparts. While they still retain their classic visual identity, their suits also take cues from more contemporary superhero fare. For fans of the "X-Men" franchise, seeing these designs must be a treat, as a majority of the live-action "X-Men" films have shied away from costumes that are in line with tradition.  The first "X-Men" film from 2000 didn't feature the team's iconic yellow and black suits,…

AI Reimagines Venom Based On Different Countries

As fans of Marvel Comics know all too well, Venom is far from the only symbiote. And while it's cool searching through the AI-generated Venoms based on various countries, like the green-tinged Italian Venom or the gold-laced Egyptian Venom, some of these creations look like other major symbiotes from Marvel Comics entirely. For starters, the Colombian Venom prominently features not only yellow on his head and body but also several spikes on his back. He's honestly reminiscent of the symbiote Phage, which…

AI Reimagines Tom Cruise As Marvel & DC Superheroes

Not to state the obvious, but Tom Cruise has a few years on Nightwing, aka Dick Grayson. The former Boy Wonder is around his mid-20s, which would make things difficult for an actor in their 60s — although that doesn't stop Cruise from looking awesome in Nightwing's domino mask. Another entry that seems almost a perfect fit, but just ever so slightly off, is the Flash. Sure, Cruise might be the fastest film star alive, but the longer you look, the more former Flash Grant Gustin starts staring back through…

Artist Reimagines 20 Rock Legends As Cartoon Characters From The 1930s

Kev Craven is a cartoonist from the city of York in England, who is known for his fascination with the aesthetics of 1930s animations, also known as "rubber hose." He experiments with this style a lot by drawing famous characters and, this time, famous rock stars in the form of cartoon characters.Bored Panda reached out to Kev, and in the interview, the artist shared what initially sparked his interest in perfecting his skills in such an old-school style: “I’ve been drawing since a very young age and always had a taste…

AI Reimagines Marvel Heroes In The American Revolutionary War (And It’s Amazing)

Since Marvel Comics doesn't have a one-to-one equivalent of DC Elseworlds, most deviations from the norm are typically structured around time travel. For instance, "Marvel 1602," an eight-issue limited series written by Neil Gaiman, follows the publisher's famous heroes in the Elizabethan era. They don't just get new costumes either; they get new names too: Sir Nicholas Fury, Matthew Murdoch, Four from the Fantastick, and Count Otto von Doom, just to name a few. Two decades later, Marvel Studios adapted…

AI Reimagines Batman & The Justice League Painted By Renaissance Artists

The AI-generated imagery does a solid job of transposing classic DC characters into the styles of the remaining artists. For example, Titian is known for his portrayals of mythological figures, and considering superhero stories are modern myths, it's a natural extension. The image of Wonder Woman overlooking the sea is oddly awe-inspiring, almost granting her the status of a mystical guardian protecting the city seen in the background. Rembrandt also has several solid superhero portraits, with one YouTube…

AI Reimagines Dragon Ball’s Super Saiyan Goku As Superman

While they might share similar strengths and speeds, fusing Goku and Superman would only increase the chances of encountering an issue that they both encounter regularly — wardrobe malfunctions. Given that Goku's energy blast-chucking throwdowns regularly lead to his gi suit tearing and Superman has the same issue when battling the likes of Doomsday or Darkseid, their fused form is going to face wear and tear. Considering this, what would the outfit of these combined characters look like, and would it last…

AI Reimagines The Joker In Different Countries

While the classic Joker look is iconic, it's easy to play around with, making him a perfect choice for this experiment. From his clothes to his clown makeup, the villain can easily cater to each country's unique history and aesthetic. And because the Joker is globally famous, it's hard not to imagine him taking up shop outside of Gotham — so long as Batman follows suit. What's surprising is that most of the photos (besides the Swedish one) don't do much to alter Joker's makeup. In many iterations, he is…

AI Reimagines The Hulk In Different Countries

Most people are likely familiar with the standard Bruce Banner Hulk — he's green and big. However, Marvel Comics has portrayed many Hulks over the years, and not all of them have been Bruce. One of the more well-known variations is Red Hulk, aka Thunderbolt Ross, and the AI slideshow seems to give a nod to him with a Red Hulk from Spain. It's an appropriate locale for a Red Hulk given how prominent red is on Spain's flag. The country also has the famous football team La Furia Roja, which translates to the…
