Spotlight: Mike Mongello

27 Nov

November 27, 2011

Mob Week rolls on and on this week, interrupted only by American Chopper on Tuesday.

I hope you’ve been enjoying the spotlights. There are a lot more to come, including some wonderful legends and beautiful art.

And speaking of art, time for the man whose art adorns each and every Mob Week post, Mike Mongello.

He’s no stranger to this site, and we are no stranger to his art. He has provided some wonderful banners for this site, like the big 500th post banner.

Recently, his Halloween banner graced this site.

He’s been the subject of not one but four spotlights in the past. Click on the thumbnails to go to the showcases.

 This highlights Mike’s all-around genius. Find Superman, cars, and beautiful women here.

Star Wars extravaganza!

 Here is the Justice League as only Mike Mongello can do them. A huge selection of heroes, with a couple of members of the Justice Society mixed in too.

 Halloween! This is where you’ll find some amazing interpretations of classic monsters, along with portraits of horror stars like Christopher Lee, Boris Karloff, and Bela Lugosi.

And now, since this is the Thanksgiving weekend,  we can all give thanks for some new Mike Mongello artwork.

All of Mike Mongello’s artwork can be found on his site, www.supermonge.com.

    Golion, awesome!! (OK, that’s Voltron to you Americans) (actually, it’s both to Italians, since here they imported the original Japanese version (Golion) first and then, quite absurdly and unnecessarily, the American butchered version (Voltron) and I’m still wondering why…) Anyway, nice robot design and great rendition by Mike!! 🙂

      One of the many great things about his work is that there is something for everyone.

      Thanks Guys…Awesome…Yeah From What I read about GoLion It sounds like a Much Better Cartoon than what the US did with it to try to sweeten it down. I remember elements in the story when I was a kid thinking they made no sense..haha… But Still a Great Cartoon and Thanks Again!

    Another talented artist I have to thank you for introducing me to. Love the superhero collection especially. I’ve never seen any Lovecraft creations on Mike’s site–maybe we should encourage him!
