Jhonen Vasquez draws some freaky Little Sisters photo

2K approached Jhonen Vasquez, the creator of Invader Zim, Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, and other awesome things, to create an image for BioShock 2. The result is this piece called “The Sisters” which shows the Big Sister watching over two Little Sisters somewhere in Rapture.

Jhonen wrote up a guest blog over on The Cult of Rapture where he details the process he went through in creating the freaky little image. Jhonen will also be at San Diego Comic-Con signing special edition prints of his “The Sisters” drawing at the BioShock 2 booth. There will only be 500 prints of “The Sisters” drawing so you better get to the BioShock 2 booth as soon as you hit the show floor.

In other news, BioShock 2 is going to be at San Diego Comic-Con in some way or form!

Awesome, I like the fish eye lens effect and the lighting behind the big sister is fantastic.

Did you give up on Art Attack or was one picture not attacky enough?

That's incredibly awesome. Too bad I'm nowhere near San Diego. :\

In other news, I need to find where I can watch invader zim again.

Good lord, can the Little Sisters get any creepier?

Looks good though.

Looks really good, but nothing less is expected of Vasquez, I wish there were new Invader Zim eps!

Could you imagine if Android and Jhonen had an art-baby?

I love his art, and I loved Invader Zim, but he seems to be one lazy bastard. Needs to get to work on some new comics.

What Covah said.

Also, he is kind of a dick in person.

I remember picking up Johnny the Homicidal Maniac and laughing far more than a middle schooler probably should have.

Wow, that's freaky. Then again, this guy made Invader ZIM, so that's no surprise.

I've always thought that the Little Sisters were creepy.
Disproportional eyes, those creepy dresses and hair, and the whole walking around with a giant monster in a fucked up city thing.

Wish Jhonen continued Zim. Imagine if it had been matched to a better fitting network like cartoon network? Nick owns the rights so we'll likely never see anything more yo do with it on tv/video/film :(

Now this is something I can get into.

Normally Vasquez's work hasn't appealing to me on any level. I don't care for his fascination with insane characters living in a dysfunctional world, emphasis on chaos and darkness. It's a yawn for me.

But golly, that picture strikes my fancy. I love the use of color and distorted perspective. Very nice.
