Comic Book Tattoos

I have tattoos.

Most of them are sourced from one comic or another. I have a fairly large Spider Jerusalem from Transmetropolitan, a panel from Y the Last Man, and a panel from Sandman all on my back.

Anywho, I want to get a Deadpool tattoo and I'm looking for a clean shot of him, either standing or in an action pose to take to the shop and get put back there. GIS like a motherfucker, scan, or (most preferably) original art.

Or, alternately, discuss your comic related tattoos?

    Post pics of your tats. One of my friends has this:

    on his calf and this also:

    I'm a big fan of the chest logo tats though.

    Agreed. But what the hell, it was the first thing I thought of when I saw the thread.

    It's even worse than that guy who made his face look like Wolverine kicked his ass.

    I wonder what it's like to have to wave away medical attention once or twice a day.

    I doubt I'd ever get it, but I think a scarab tattoo between the shoulder blades would be a cool comic book tattoo. But then I'm a big fan of the current Blue Beetle.

    Hippie, I think I proposed that same idea the last time a comic book tattoo discussion arose. I also thought about getting a discreet, simple scarab on my forearm, where Ted had them on his gloves.

    But I'm kind of reticent about getting things permanently etched into my body.

    I've toyed with the idea of an Iron Fist tattoo.

    Not like the big ass dragon on my chest or anything.

    Probably just a smaller Iron Fist symbol somewhere else.

    I really like Iron Fist, but I think I'm gonna have to wait at least a two or ten more years to see if I still really like him or not.

    Yep, pretty sure you did. It's one of the few comic book tattoo ideas that I really like.

    I'm over the getting something permanently etched on your body barrier since I already have a Celtic knot on my lower back. Pretty standard black ink, but I like it a lot. My main concern with getting the scarab would be that it would look odd with my existing tattoo. Taking into account that having a stylized blue dung beetle between your shoulder blades is kind of odd anyway.

    The Iron Fist logo would be a very cool tattoo. I could see that working as a chest piece on a guy, or even on someone's back.

    the only problem i have with the iron fist tattoo on my chest is that

    it's a huge dragon on your chest.

    it's just kinda odd and hard to explain.

    but in the iron fist series they've had some pretty neat ideas about where the tattoo can be placed - like that one guy with the tattoo on his head.

    I practice Tae Kwon Do, so I could maybe see some stylized Iron Fist tattoo on my leg or foot.

    I've always wanted some sort of Batman-related tattoo

    Toyed with the idea of some sort of sleeve of comic panels or something

    But I'll probably never decide on something that I'd be fond of for eternity

    That's the tattoo of a man who's never ever going to be troubled with the problem of explaining to a girl why he's got zombie spiderman holding disemboweled mary jane tattooed on his leg, or is it an arm? Gee aren't we all happy i never became a surgeon.

    Edit: After looking over some of the other tattoos in that gallery, i've reached the conclusion that some people just don't deserve to have skin.

    It's not even that good of a drawing of Spider-Zombie. But I guess that's sort of insult to injury.

    I think I'm going to get the original Joker playing card somewhere on my body, but I don't know where yet. Ideas? My upper right arm is already covered.

    But if it never got drawn then how can I get it on me?

    And hey I drew everything. The tournament just sort of...stopped before it got to our next round. Which sucks because our product placement round was great.

    Sorry. Joker playing card has to be right butt cheek. But if you don't want that you can simply get the giant dragon chest piece the joker sported on that cover of All Star Batman.

    If I get it there, I'll have to show you all, and that means most of GV will have seen my pearly white buttocks.

    A notion I'm not that uncomfortable with.

    you can get it tattooed on your inner arm and have part of it covered by tattooed "wrinkles" so it you've got a card up your sleeve

    if you want to be clever
