Last week, I took off work to sit on a sidewalk for three days. Why would I do such a thing? Because it was the only way to have my first choice of new artwork from Scott Campbell. Campbell, who goes by Scott C., is a frequent presence on io9, having debuted his incredible paintings for both Avengers: Endgame and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse here. But last week, he wasn’t just debuting two paintings, he was debuting 200.
“Rise of the Great Showdowns” is the latest exhibit by the artist at Gallery 1988 in Los Angeles, CA. The show featured many of the paintings Campbell has done over the past several years, now finally available to purchase, as well as several new ones first revealed in the show. And, because these are all one of a kind, many of his fans camp out on the streets for many days for the chance to get the pieces they want. I’m among those fans.
When the doors opened, I was overwhelmed by the awesomeness on display— and it remains on display through this Saturday. Here’s the info. Everything is available to see (and some to buy) online too; I’ve gone through and pulled just a few from my favorite sci-fi films that I think will make you a Scott C. fan too.
