如果世界上最邪恶的坏蛋们——无论是现实中的还是虚拟的——联合起来将会如何？
乔治•W•布什或许有他自己定义的“邪恶轴心”，但是Bily Mariano da Luz（“屠夫比利”）在这周公布了他的世界恶棍军团——其中反而包括了这位美国前总统。Da Luz是一位巴西艺术家，他把漫画中的坏蛋和真实世界中的恶棍（其实是一个大杂烩，包括了脸谱创始人马克•扎克伯格和刺杀约翰•列侬的凶手马克•查普曼）结合起来，组成了一个混合“厄运军团”。da Luz说，令人沮丧的一件事情是，他慢慢发现“如果我们的真实生活只是遭到漫画中那些恶棍的威胁，世界其实不会像现在这样糟”。
下面就是da Luz笔下的超现实弗兰克斯坦，艺术家分别发表了一些评论，讲述他是如何创造出这些刺激的绘画作品的。
毛 － 达克赛德（黑暗君主）
“创作这一系列作品的最初灵感来源于艺术家Jack Kirby，他曾经提到，在70年代时，他以希特勒和纳粹德国为原型创造出达克赛德和安珀克莱斯星。但我从一开始就对阿道夫有不懂的看法，于是我想到了毛，因为达克赛德的脸似乎是一块石头——表情从未变化。主席似乎也总是同样一个表情，所以我选择了他。”
奥萨马•本•拉登 － 绿色哥布林
“《蜘蛛侠》里面站在滑翔机上扔炸弹的坏蛋，我觉得他们之间有共通之处。”
穆阿迈尔•卡扎菲 － 逆超人
“来自平行宇宙冰煞罗的变异版本超人有一张令人毛骨悚然、正方形的面孔，我实在想不到还有谁比‘变态的’利比亚前统治者更适合这个形象。”
阿道夫•希特勒 － 行星吞噬者
“行星吞噬者是Marvel漫画中的形象。希特勒试图建立欧洲大陆的新秩序，但是我想如果没人阻止他，他肯定会建立一个世界新秩序。实际上，在他的强力宣传攻势、富有魅力的演讲术和军事力量的辅助下，他是唯一一个有可能‘吞噬世界’的独裁者。而且我需要一个能在吞噬者头盔里被轻易认出的形象，所以他的眼睛和小胡子成为了他的重要标志。但是，选择他的真正原因在于吞噬者头盔的设计，稍微做些改变，它就变成了纳粹党的十字符号。”
查尔斯•曼森 － 小丑
“这也是我从漫画的原始创意中得到的灵感。我收看过70年代曼森接受采访时的录像，非常奇怪的是，他不断让我联想到希斯•莱杰在《黑暗骑士》中扮演的小丑形象。不仅仅是相貌，还包括表情、动作、语言、声调等等。我觉得这样安排最合理，最能表达现实中的恐惧。”
马克•查普曼 － 章鱼博士
“这两人有些类似，都体型肥胖，戴着眼镜，而且还有更深层次的关联。查普曼对约翰•列侬极为迷恋，甚至达到杀死他的程度。章鱼博士也对蜘蛛侠如此迷恋，以至于他在新一期漫画连载《超级蜘蛛侠》里，找到一个与对方互换身体的方法。”
乔治•W•布什 － 双面人
“这个选择已经让我遭到了无数的批判，但是别忘了，当你把现实世界和60年代漫画书中的人物混合在一起的时候，就应该是愚蠢和搞笑的组合。我并不想引起政治讨论，其实我也不是第一个丑化布什的人——9/11之后已经足够多了。他结合对象的第一选择本来是雷克斯•路瑟，因为这个角色后来真的当上了美国总统。但是这个选择有些太平淡无趣了，视觉上也没有什么效果。还是双面人更合适，无论是身材、相貌还是其所作所为。”
约瑟夫•斯大林－疯狂猎人克莱文
“这绝对是一个最完美的组合，或许是最有趣的一个形象。他们如此相似，以至于你会不由自主地认为这个角色就是给这位独裁者量身打造的。当你再发现克莱文其实是俄罗斯人时，你只能说‘就是他了。’”
马克•扎克伯格－恶作剧之神洛基
“这或许是最有争议的一个组合。有些人马上领略到其中的内涵和讽刺意味，其它人或许不能理解为什么把扎克伯格描绘成与希特勒和本•拉登为伍的恶棍。他们似乎忘记了一个问题，一个团伙需要各种类型的罪犯，而不仅仅是壮汉。如果在这群恶徒中出现了一个科技天才，从不杀人，但是利用网络从全世界收集个人信息，该多么有趣。这才是完美的邪恶天才计划。”

What if the world's most notorious villains -- real and imagined -- teamed up?
George W. Bush may have had his "axis of evil," but this week Bily Mariano da Luz ("Butcher Billy") unveiled his own entourage of global evildoers -- one that included the former American president himself. Da Luz, a Brazilian artist, mashed up comic bad guys with real-life villains (an eclectic bunch that includes Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and John Lennon assassin Mark Chapman) to create a hybrid "Legion of Doom." The depressing part of the exercise, da Luz wrote, was realizing that "if the comic book supervillains were actually the ones threatening real life, the world wouldn't be such a bad place."
Here are the surreal Frankensteins da Luz created, with commentary from the artist about what inspired him to make the provocative pairings that he did.
Mao Zedong / Darkseid
Da Luz: "One of my first inspirations for the concept of this series was the artist and creator Jack Kirby, who once said, back in the 70s, that he modeled the alien dictator Darkseid on Hitler, and his planet Apokolips on Nazi Germany. But since the very beginning I had a different idea for Adolf. So I thought about Mao because Darkseid has a face that appears to be made of stone -- he almost never changes it. As the chairman also appeared to be a man of only one expression, I chose him."
Osama bin Laden / Green Goblin
Da Luz: "The archnemesis of Spider-Man flies around in a glider throwing bombs, so I saw a connection there."
Muammar al-Qaddafi / Bizarro
Da Luz: "The twisted version of Superman from the parallel universe known as the Bizarro World has a creepy, square-shaped face, and I couldn't think of another man that matches him more than the truly 'bizarre' former ruler of Libya."
Adolf Hitler / Galactus
Da Luz: "Galactus is a cosmic entity from Marvel Comics known as the World-Eater, or the World-Devourer. Hitler wanted to establish a New Order in continental Europe, but I bet if he was not stopped he would sure try to make that a New World Order. And with all the heavy propaganda, charismatic oratory, and firepower, he was the only dictator that actually could 'eat the world.' Plus I needed someone that could be easily recognizable inside the Galactus helmet. It's interesting how you can see it's him just by his eyes and moustache. But the real appeal for this one was the detail in the Galactus helmet -- a simple reshape of the original and it turned into a swastika."
Charles Manson / The Joker
Da Luz: "This one was another inspiration for the original concept of the series. I was watching an interview with Manson in the 70s and I was completely amazed at how he reminded me of the Joker as played by Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight. Not just physically -- but the expressions, the way he moves, the way he talks, the voice tone, everything. I bet that is why this result is so brilliant and realistically terrifying."
Mark Chapman / Doctor Octopus
Da Luz: "They look alike because they're both obese and wear glasses, but there's something a bit deeper about both of them. Just as Chapman had an obsession with John Lennon to the point of killing him, Doctor Octopus is so obsessed with Spider-Man that he even found a way of swapping bodies with the hero in a new series called The Superior Spider-Man."
George W. Bush / Two-Face
Da Luz: "I've been getting a lot of criticism because of this choice, but let's not forget that when you mash up real people with comic-book characters from the 60s, it's supposed to be silly and humorous. I'm not trying to be political by choosing sides or parties here, and I am not the first one to portray Bush as a villain -- that comes from even before 9/11. My first choice for him would be Lex Luthor, because the character actually became president of the United States. But the choice was so obvious that it wasn't very interesting, not even visually. So Two-Face fit better, both physically and contextually.
Joseph Stalin / Kraven the Hunter
Da Luz: "This mash-up was so perfect that it is probably the funniest of them all. They look so alike that it is hard to believe the character was not based on the dictator. I don't know if he was, but when you learn that Kraven is supposed to be Russian, there's only one thing to say: case closed."
Mark Zuckerberg / Loki, the God of Mischief
Da Luz: "This one is probably the most controversial of them all. Some people get the joke right away and find the irony, while others are annoyed to see Zuckerberg portrayed as a villain among people like Hitler and bin Laden. But what they seem to forget is that a true gang needs all kinds of criminals, not just the bullying type. How great would it be if in the midst of all these wackos there's an unsuspecting tech geek who never killed anyone but does the hacker work by gathering personal information from people all over the world through a network? That would be the quintessential evil-genius plan."游客，本帖隐藏的内容需要积分高于 500 才可浏览，您当前积分为 0 |
