Famous Chunkies, Pop Culture Characters Get Fat

5

Our favorite pop culture icons always seem to remain in perfect shape. But what if they, like actual people, were to let themselves go? Let’s find out, shall we?

Famous Chunkies, brought to us by artist Alex Solis, is a fun cartoon series that provides a visual of some fattened-up pop culture icons. Poor fat Spider-Man will hardly be able to do whatever a spider can now, while Darth Vader apparently discovered the Death Star food court.

And, Captain America… Let’s just say he’s never looked more American. See more below, and the entire series here.

Fat Statue of David

Michelangelo’s David is an irrefutable masterpiece. But if he was sculpted today as a commentary on the growing obesity epidemic, he might look a bit different, and the line outside the Uffizi would probably be a bit shorter.

The Super-Sized David Garden Sculpture gives us a more modern rendition of David — double chin, pot belly, cankles and all. Design Toscano was also considerate enough to finally cover up David’s manhood — which is probably not helped any by his new dimensions.

Fat Cap’n Crunch by Ron English

Artist/culture jammer/shit-stirrer Ron English is at it again. Officially titled Cap’n Cornstarch, English rendered the morbidly obese cereal mascot in vinyl — extra chins and diabetes-induced missing leg and all. The Cap’n must’ve gotten into those boxes of All Crunch Berries.

See English’s previous Fat Tony The Tiger.
