Fan Art Round-Up: Rey
Star Wars: The Force Awakens Fan Art featuring Rey
Star Wars: The Force Awakens has officially become the fastest film to ever pass the one billion dollar mark at the box office. People have been talking about practically nothing but Star Wars for nearly a month now. Some people are calling the movie's star, Rey a Mary Sue, while others are denying it. Some people are speculating that Rey is a Solo or a Skywalker (or even a Kenobi), others are making compelling arguments to the contrary.
While arguing and nitpicking is simply fundamental to geek culture, two things have become clear. First, it was high time for a Star Wars movie to center around a woman, and second, the internet is in love with Daisy Ridley's Rey. As the fervor over The Force Awakens has built, Rey fan art has flooded the internet. To celebrate the film, we've gathered up some of the best examples in one place for your perusing pleasure.
As always, if you find a piece mislabeled or know of a stand-out piece we missed, drop a link in the comments below!

Fan Art: Shipping Finn and Poe
John Boyega's Finn and Oscar Isaac's Poe Dameron are the single most shipped couple in The Force Awakens universe right now. It's cute and funny because it's one of those things you never could have predicted but that is just so typical of the internet. I expect animated Youtube videos to surface any day now.
Fan Art: Denial phase: over.
"Denial phase: over.
Make other people feel bad to feel better phase: starting now."
Fan Art: Captain Phasma / Samus Crossover
Captain Phasma / Samus Crossovers by Brisbane, Australia-based Plint's Toons
Tumblr user Plint's Toons has been purging herself of a crossover fantasy that she's had every since she saw The Force Awakens.
"So uh, I watched Star Wars and I really like Captain Phasma. I’ve also been drowning in this crossover since it popped into my head"

Fan Art Round-Up: Morpheus
"The Sandman" by Uncannyknack
A Sandman Fan Art Gallery featuring Morpheus, Lord of Dreams
Neil Gaiman's The Sandman is the single greatest comic series ever written, and if you don't agree, fight me! In case you've never stopped to appreciate just how amazing this series really is, pause for a moment to reflect on these points:
- The widespread acceptance of the series' literary merit marked the beginning of mainstream comics' entry into mainstream culture in the early nineties, which, in turn, lead to the rise of nerd dominance of media we enjoy today.For all of these reasons and more, this week we celebrate our cult-like adoration of Neil Gaiman's oeuvre just ahead of his fifty-fifth birthday by rounding up some of the best Morpheus fan art to be found on the web, and folks, there was a LOT of fan art to sift through. As ever, if we've mis-credited a piece or overlooked a piece you think should be included in this gallery, drop us a link in the comments below!
- Many female comic fans cite it as the series that drew them into the culture. (Gaiman once joked that Sandman was a "sexually transmitted" fandom that boys passed onto their girlfriends.)
- Sandman was a massively popular comic book, and it didn't center around superheroes. Once Gaiman had bucked the convention, many other artists followed suit, making it acceptable and eventually even stylish to write comics without capes.
- Sandman was the first popular series to prominently feature openly gay characters in substantive roles, rather than a topic-of-the-week capacity.
- The success of the series made Neil Gaiman a household name, and let's face facts, the man is a cultural treasure.
- Finally, Sandman seriously raised the bar for comics as art. It looked like no other comic that had come before it, and to this day, it remains one of the most visually striking titles ever penned.
