It’s the end of the month, so it is time to reflect, relax and rewind our way back through the one-sheets, banners, promotional artwork and posters released in the last calendar month. It’s a little section we like to call Best Posters.
It was San Diego Comic-Con this month, so we have a stack of original illustrations gracing the posters, from Andy Park’s work on the Ant-Man poster to the epic triptych that made up the Avengers: Infinity War spread. So after a string of horrible pieces of Photoshoppery, Spider-Man: Homecoming finally gets a spectacular one-sheet from dab-hand Martin Ansin.
Speaking of photos, Akiko Stehrenberger makes beautiful use of the well-worn Instagram motif, one that is both highly appropriate and effective on the new poster for the fun Ingrid Goes West. The Australian-shot horror film Better Watch Out takes ugly Christmas sweaters to a new height. The Dark Tower and The Shape of Water showcase comic book artists Jae Lee and James Jean respectively. Bob’s Burgers is not only a fun use of illustration, but it’s educational as well!
