Focusing on the emotional and darker sides of comic book heroes like Batman and the Avengers, or depicting Darth Vader & his last moment with his son Luke, JSalvador’s SuperEmoFriends is makes it the best Emo thing ever.

According to Salvador (who spoke to Buzzfeed about his work), the genesis of his SuperEmoFriends project reveals so much about fan culture and our emotional investments in fictional characters… They get to add to the painting with their own knowledge of the character and that mental participation makes it fun.

Vader & Luke

 

A father – son moment. Many feels, no tears.

Trooper Failures

 

This was after Vader or some other Moff shouted at them for letting the Droids slip past them.

Sad Batman

When you think about it, Bruce Wayne has been emo since before anyone knew what it is.

The Avengers & Loki Down About Something

 

It sucks withotu girls.

Crying Spider-Man

 

First his parents, then uncle Ben, and then Gwen Stacy. Poor Peter.

Depressed Wolverine

 

Living forever isn’t that great.

Robo-Arnie

 

It sucks having to melt yourself down after saving the day.

Atreyu & Artax

I cried too when I was a kid and saw this.

Link, Not Zelda!

 

it’s exhausting correcting people all the time.

Beetlejuice

 

The Bobby Vinton song is actually about him.

The Real WW

 

All the money is gone….
