A few months ago, comic book artist Phil Noto’s<\/a> rendition of Mark Hamill as a Jedi Knight 30 years after Return of the Jedi<\/em> got fans really excited about the new Star Wars<\/em> movies. His retro style is evocative of ’60s art and design and his works are featured in shows and galleries around the country.<\/p>\n

Noto used to be a Disney animator before moving on to illustrate a variety of comic books from Superman<\/em> and Batgirl<\/em> to The Avengers<\/em> and Wolverine<\/em>. His Mad Men<\/em>-style pieces capture the flair of that era using such characters as Superman (as played by Mad Men’s<\/em> Jon Hamm, of course), James Bond (Sean Connery), Thor, L\u00e9on The Professional (Jean Reno), Thomas Jerome Newton (David Bowie), the Scarlet Witch, Colossus, Shadowcat and others.<\/p>\n
