Coming off of the superhero-filled MegaCon weekend, we take a look at an art series from artist Gregoire Guillemin called “The Secret Life of Heroes,” depicting characters from comics, Disney, video games, and movies in the normal situations that regular people encounter on a regular basis.

The half-toned, comic book style images feature characters like Catwoman, Superman, Captain America, Snow White, Mario, and Princess Leia doing everyday tasks like eating, drinking, shaving, grooming, playing video games, riding a bike, dressing, undressing, and hooking up. The series is huge, so here are just a few favorites:
