Hands Groper

Newly elected European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and (very) outgoing President Jean-Claude Juncker.

I like this emerging tradition that the EU Commissioner must have a name that would make a good villain in a Die Hard movie. The new EU Supremo’s name Ursula von der Leyen isn’t quite as good as the last one, the all-time classic Jean-Claude Juncker, but the custom is carried on. https://t.co/TuNLWekZdV

But Jean-Claude Juncker had the best “Die Hard” Euro-villain name because he’s sounds like a cross between a supercilious French skier and Helmuth von Moltke the Elder’s sternest uncle.

That he was a handsy Joe Biden on a bender only made it all better. https://t.co/EbmilU43p2

Over at B3ta, they’re photoshopping movie villains into TV sitcoms and it’s all going exactly according to plan. Mwahaha.

The four excellent splices above are (clockwise) from B3tards: Joe Scaramanga, TokyoSexWhale, Omentum and DreadPirateRoberts.

Minimal Villainy

Minimalist Villains by Fabian Glez – a follow up to his minimalist superheroes (which we posted as a quiz last week).

You can buy prints here, and there’ll be an answer key here too, at some stage.

For now, Fabian wants you to ‘work your mind a little bit’. Fiendish of him, wouldn’t you say?
