I admit to being relatively new to the awesomeness that is The Iron Giant, but since I saw it over the summer, I’ve realized there isn’t enough Iron Giant in the world at large. I’m glad The Art of the Iron Giant was released this fall, and I’m even happier to see this tattoo submitted by Kirsty. It’s black and white except for the eyes, and I think it’s moody and beautiful—there’s so much emotion in his metal face.

This week, you’ll find Boba Fett, a Fremen inspired by Dune (this is particularly relevant given the recent exciting development about the franchise), rad ink from The Walking Dead, and some Hello Kitty Star Wars tats (they are rather adorable).
