Super Marishka Hargitay

This month The Awesome Town has seen many posts with the word "super" in them. That's good. All super everything.

The picture below is by an artist named Sina Grace. It's a drawing of Detective Olivia Benson, one of the main characters on the great television show Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (the best Law & Order show by far) played by the actor Marishka Hargitay.

In this picture, Detective Benson has lightning powers. And she's fighting terrorists.



But, wait! This is not the only sci-fi Law & Order picture in existence! Not by a long shot!

If you want more Sci Fi Law & Order, An artist named Brandon Bird got a bunch of his colleagues together to make art taking the premises for Law & Order episodes and turning them sci fi.

For example, the picture above is based on a Law & Order: SVU plot called "Benson Combats Terrorist Activities." The series of art is appropriatly called "These Are There Stories."

The famous comic shop Meltdown Comics in Hollywood is showing currently showing all the "These Are Their Stories" art in the store. If you are in the L.A area, and you enjoy Law & Order and Sci Fi stuff, I recommend stopping by Meltdown and checking "These Are Their Stories" out. If you like comics and haven't been to Meltdown, it's a great store. I've been twice and it's definitely one of the best comic shops I've visited in my life so far.

Law & Order becoming Sci Fi really is amazing. It's two awesome things coming together.
