How Elvis Presley inspired Metro Man: Appearance, style, and love for music
“I wanted superheroes elevated to rock star status,” Mr. McGrath said. “What I pitched was Alice Cooper versus Elvis Presley, the spikes and the leather versus the rhinestones and the fringe.” Megamind’s dark outfits are a stark visual counter to Metro Man’s almost angelic white duds.”(X)
“To break out in animation, we talked about his role being kind of this Elvis guy that can work a crowd, so I gave him this hand-held mike just because the first recordings you felt he was pinned behind this podium. And then later on he'd still be roaming around the whole sound booth with the mike; it does affect your voice when you are so physical.”(X)

Like Elvis, Metro Man has a black pompadour, blue eyes, and wears white suits with rhinestones and golden accents. He is also charming and blessed with a strong stage presence. Later on, it is revealed that he has a strong affinity for music—dreaming of being a great musician—much like the real life singer that inspired his design.
Thank you @joons for suggesting this reference post!
This minecraft short comic called "A strange Coast" made by Ian Flynn I believe, I found in a book from my library I work has to be one of the most beautiful and respectful takes on the game.
It understands minecraft so perfectly and doesn't treat it as childishly as the other stories in it did.
And all that within 10 pages and no word spoken.
don’t be scared to ask that person out. the worst they could do is say ‘no’ and then begin attacking you with their bare hands, ripping the skin off your face and tearing out chunks off flesh from your arms and disemboweling you
Sorry it’s early but you really can’t use fanfiction terms in a non fanfiction context like if someone is trying to sell me a book to read and they tell me there’s an enemy to lovers I would be annoyed because why are you spoiling the story lol

Who else would launch themselves into an overgrown Wither after detonating the the most dangerous bomb within 10 feet of it, and stab at it’s heart with an enchanted hoe?
Ok so. I'm in the middle of my class rn and I was thinking about my ex and how I miss him and I was like "ok bitch don´t cry in front of everyone"..................so I just entered tumblr to distract myself/stop myself from crying and. This just pops up!!!! And it's so real, I've been feeling horrible this year and the only thing that's keeping me sane are Elvis pics, fanfictions, his songs and other types of media related to him...............thank you op, this genuinely made me feel better even if it's a joke :)
Hey don't cry. You exist at the same time as the elvisverse. Everything will be okay

I tried to draw realistically but it seems semi-realistic, even so I really liked the result. Painting in grayscale is relaxing for me tehehhhhhhh
