I spent a decent amount of time browsing around
Flatstock 33 during SXSW and encountered an overwhelming amount of impressive work. One such creator that caught my eye was Chicago's
Fugscreens Studios. There's a vintage vibe to the
gig posters and
art prints that you don't see all too often in the world of screenprinters. His direct homages to comic books (lots of Tin Tin in there) is quite pleasing. There's also a line of prints that are direct lifts from certain comic books but all of the characters have been removed and only the dialog remains. The online images don't do it justice but you should
check them out regardless.
It doesn't seem to be as up-to-date as the
official site but be sure to give the
Flickr stream a whirl as well.
