Mondo Reveals Comic Con Exclusive Posters

It’s time to clear some wall space…

The poster masters at Mondo have revealed their Comic Con exclusives, and as usual I’m totally in love with these gorgeous designs. The big focus this year is a stunning series of Pacific Rim posters, which are all richly layered in awesomeness, just like the movie itself.  I love the posterized, comic book-y style of Kevin Tong’s piece, and Ash Thorp’s Jaeger and Kaiju portraits are electrifying… but I think I might love Vania Zouravliov‘s Mako Mori-centric image the most of all.

Pacific Rim isn’t the only SDCC release from Mondo– They’re also bringing out a stunning portrait of Roland the gunslinger from Dark Tower, a pair of gorgeous new Miyazaki movie prints, and the sickest Conan poster I’ve ever seen (in two different flavors!) courtesy of Martin Ansin.

Here’s all the details on the SDCC posters, straight from Mondo:

MONDO UNVEILS PLANS FOR COMIC-CON 2013

New Prints for “Pacific Rim” & Artwork from Martin Ansin,

Olly Moss, Drew Struzan and more!

Austin, TX— Wednesday, July 9, 2013 — Mondo is excited to announce that it will return to San Diego Comic-Con 2013 with incredible new prints, including three colossal pieces of giant monster crushing artwork to celebrate the release Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures’ Pacific Rim from director Guillermo del Toro on July 12. The Mondo booth will be set up on the main conference floor in booth #936 throughout SDCC, Wednesday July 17 through Sunday July 21. Additionally, new prints from celebrated artists Martin Ansin, Olly Moss and Drew Struzan will be available for presale on Friday, July 12.

“Mondo has always been instrumental in cementing world creation in pop culture- these posters by Ash Thorp and Kevin Tong and Vania Zouravliov capture perfectly the wild, gleeful spirit of Pacific Rim – here’s to a mad world of Mecha and Kaiju!!” said director Guillermo del Toro.

“I love monsters. I love robots. I love Guillermo del Toro. When he asked us to do posters for a movie he was directing with both, how could we say no? GDT wasn’t a bystander in the process, though. As he did in our previous director’s series, he helped hand pick the artist and gave notes on the designs. We’re all very proud to have worked on this project with him,” said Justin Ishmael CEO of Mondo.
