If you've been paying attention to the nerd internet for the past I don't know how long, you will have come across the nerd design fad of the moment: Minimalism. Movie posters, album covers, book covers, ads for products, TV logos, everything, it seems, should be done with as little there as possible.
What's it look like, you say? Well, here's a recent example from ComicsAlliance.com of some minimalistic re-done movie posters.
"But aren't those just hastily thrown together colors and shapes run through a Photoshop filter with some text put on there?" you ask. "And aren't the Batman and Catwoman ones exactly the same?"
Well, clearly you don't understand, man.
And we felt like we needed to get in on the action! Enjoy!

See, the problem with this is that I like it. Although that finger is so squared off that Kirby should be drawing it.
