Theres a host of others but space was limited and i didnt want them all vying for space too much, just squeezing in the central Mystery Men was a challenge!
Kotch Media are the same people who released Super which i worked on, that time i created a sudo classic comic book cover design, so this time around I took my inspiration more from modern comic book covers to create the layout, so placing the character line-up on an angle and having the title treatment at an angled perspective as well paying homage the X-men and Avengers.
We wanted to lead with Ben Stiller as his character Mr Furious is the main focuses of the story, so i had his rage bursting out and Geoffrey Rush does a great turn as the big bad camp villain, he's got such a rubber expressive face in this and i really wanted to bring that out in the image as well.
Pretty much 90% of the film takes place at night so i kept to quite a dark blue colour pallet especially as Ben stiller is decked out all in black leather and he takes up a lot of the image on this one i wanted it all to complement that.
