Firefly’s Malcolm Reynolds Plus da Vinci Equals Perfection


If you’re a Firefly fan and you’ve recovered enough from the 10th anniversary reunion news to be able to read this, then you just might be ready for the next shiny thing we have for you. Actually, Quantum Mechanix (QMx)has it for you, or will, shortly. You have probably seen the da Vinci drawing of the Vitruvian Man, also known as the Perfect Man, even if you never knew that’s what it was. Don’t worry, you’ll recognize it when you see how QMx has, um, perfected it:

Our Perfect Man

The genius of Leonardo da Vinci coupled with our wicked sense of humor have yielded a very modern perfect man: actor Nathan Fillion posing with limbs outstretched, ripped physique and his trusty holster strategically placed.

The original pen-and-ink drawing by da Vinci, completed in 1490, is based on the ideas of the ancient Roman architect, Marcus Vitruvius, who considered the symmetry of the ideal human figure to be a model for proportion in architectural design.

Taking da Vinci’s illustration, QMx Senior Designer Mohammad “Hawk” Haque has added the handsome face of Nathan Fillion.

The Nathan Fillion Perfect Man image has been approved by Nathan Fillion himself and is an officially licensed product. Our poster is printed on 18″ x 24″ 100-pound, satin-finish paper. This very special poster is available at Comic-Con International 2012 and online for a limited time. A true work of art for just $14.95.

QMx has the image in poster and in tee shirt form. Both will be available at Comic-Con and for a limited time thereafter. They have waiting lists for each and are strongly recommending you sign up if interested.
