Betty White in a Metal Bikini Wielding a Flaming Chainsaw While Riding a John Ritter Centaur

By John Farrier in Art on Apr 16, 2010 at 7:04 pm

The Portland Mercury, an entertainment magazine in Portland, Oregon, asked readers to take a poll about what they’d like to see on the cover of an issue. Artist Andrew Zubko executed their vision with this magnificent illustration.

    These kinds of posts are the reason why I follow Neatorama religiously.

    Why, thanks for making my day just a little bit brighter!

    Disturbing… no wait, awesome… no… disturbing…hmm…I’m at a loss. Its either an epic win or the stuff of nightmares, I’m feeling conflicted.

    Yeah, when I saw this in the lunch room I found it hard to ignore. It is immensely surreal, and also shiny.

    THe John RItter centaur is poorly drawn, which is a shame since the Betty White part is totally awesome.

    I’m sorry if the answer should be obvious, but why is the John Ritter centaur a mare?

    A trillion things could have been drawn, Portland settled for this?

    Wow. Does that look like a Princess Leia Return of the Jedi bikini top?

    Even more proof (as if we needed it) that Betty White is the most awesome person on the planet. …and even the most awesome person in the alternate universe where Spock has a beard.
    YAY BETTY!

    The Mercury is not an “entertainment magazine,” it’s a weekly newspaper. And it is awesome.

    The Mercury is a rag in my opinion. Pure trash.

    @Snarlz

    I think the term you were looking for is “awsomely disturbing…”

    This illustrates perfectly why Portland is the only place in the States I’d voluntarily move to.
    Rock on, P-town. Rock. On.
