An AI recreates Marvel and DC vigilantes as Victorian-era characters.
Don’t you think superheroes have been a bit stuck lately? After a more or less bumpy Phase Four, some MCU fans may be starting to feel some fatigue. And it doesn’t just have to do with Marvel: fans of the DC Comics universe and its movies also know a lot about universes built haphazardly, canceled projects, characters out in the open, and other miseries (although the brand that shelters Black Adam can boast of having some of the best superhero series). Given this panorama, any excuse is a good one to steal some freshness when looking at the usual characters. The solution to this problem —as to almost everything lately— is provided by an artificial intelligence, which has drawn the superheroes of the two great comic book houses as if they were characters from the 19th century.
The result, as you have already seen in the image that heads this text, is more than convincing. AI has turned heroes like Tony Stark, the man under Iron Man’s armor, into 19th-century vigilantes who even look like they were photographed on a camera from two centuries ago. His cybersuit technology has, of course, also traveled back in time to become pure. steampunk. That is also the reason why that Tony Stark drawn by artificial intelligence seems so English to you: the literary subgenre of steampunkBorn in speculative science fiction writing circles in the 1980s, he likes to apply the fantastic wits of more futuristic storytelling to the steam-powered technology that was prevalent in the Victorian era. In video games like Bioshock Infinite You have a very descriptive example of the main lines of this trend.
But the thing does not end with Tony Stark: the image has been accompanied by almost a dozen more portraits of superheroes transferred to the 19th century. They are all the work of the computer program that runs Infinite Odyssey, the world’s first fantasy and science fiction magazine created entirely by artificial intelligence. At the moment, its website is in preparation, but the project promises to revolutionize the field with groundbreaking stories and high-level illustrations produced by AI. Some advances can already be seen on their social media profiles, like this collection that we leave you here below. In it, you will find some of the best characters from Marvel movies and series, some from DC Comics and even some anime hero who has slipped in among so many Yankee vigilantes and that we will not reveal to you. Look at this:
