It looks like bloody toilet paper.
One of the few times where I've actually really liked all the side art - usually people are all "OMG SIDE ART SO MUCH BETTER!K@#UJMFSD" and I think it's ok.
I love it! The toilet paper needed to be left off, it's unnecessary, but other than that it's great. I agree that it would have been great with the front of the tee being Superman's front, and this being the back, but I still think this works really well.
As for feeling weird about have superman's butt on your chest, it's subtle and I think most people would miss it entirely. The people who got it would have great reactions.
I'm thinking about this for my dad. It's one of those shirts where there's a good chance people won't notice his bum is hanging out... and that's his style of humor. Even if no one notices, he'll know that Superman's bum is on his shirt.
As for me, I think the artist's style is awesome, but this isn't a shirt that I would wear. And the side art is fantastic. I would like to put my vote in for the elephant also.
Like other's have mentioned, this would have been an awesome design if the front of the shirt had his normal front image, and the back of the shirt had this backside image. I would totally buy this if A. I had money and 2. My boobs were smaller, SM would be cut in half by my bosoms :/
If this were that Mad Hatter design in your portfolio link
I would snag it in a second, no questions asked.
This design, unfortunately... I don't find appealing. I'm not a big SM fan (uh, Superman, that is... not sado-masochism.) to begin with and I'm not all that keen on "joke" shirts, although this one is pretty subtle...
I'm not sure if it's intentional but on my monitor, his ass is the same colour as his belt. His cheeks probably should have been more pink. It took me a while to figure out that it was his exposed ass. I love the idea. I think it's hilarious. I just think his ass, neck and hands should be a different shade than the highlights on his belt. And the toilet paper wasn't necessary.
Gah, I sound like such a hater. I think it's hilarious. I only criticize because it's an inch away from making me buy it.

Yeah, it's hard getting a design down to 5 colors sometimes! Gotta sacrifice somewhere!
Don't forget guys, this also harkens back to the popular 80's workout tapes!
This is pretty funny. I think being a Superman fan, I might have to rock it. I don't know, I think the designs this week have been on point and just bummed I missed a couple.

Toilet paper. Duh!
Joke's a bit lame compared to some of the other more witty shirts I've seen on here - Sitar Hero for example - plus I think the way it's been done is a bit too subtle for it to really look more than a generic Superman tee.
i just want to say that im super bummed out because yesterday when i wanted to buy the shirt it said that it was sold out... now i come on and i see that it ended up not being sold out and people were allowed to buy it at night, but i was at work and didnt check it again after i saw that it was sold out.
melbel is bummin big time.
as for this SleepingBeauty... im not a super hero gal.. but i think its funny. he has a cute bum.

showing supermans front would make it closer to copywrite infringment

Im bummed... Its been awhile since I've bought a shirt from you guys. Saving money but bummed... Id so get that elephant tee though... Does he get free refills?
I would have bought this, easily, had there not been a bare ass on it. The toilet paper was subtle and funny enough...but the ass was a bit tasteless, sorry :/
Words from the curator: Obviously Superman needs to update his costume for the 2nd movie..if at all they make a sequel, given that the last one..err.. never mind.
Tell us about this design: So, Superman may have superhuman strength, can see through walls, but come on, he's gotta potty just like the rest of us. This design demonstrates how a redesign of his costume would help him during day to day activities like going #2. In this case, a butt flap has been integrated into his costume. He obviously forgot to button that thing back up here, resulting in an embarrassing moon moment.
Tell us about yourself: I work for Phantom EFX during the day, which is one of the biggest developers of casino pc games. I do illustration and animation for different slot machines. It's a fun job, and has allowed me to get pretty efficient with Photoshop and After Effects. During the off hours, I do freelance and personal illustration. I am also married and have two kids, so I keep pretty busy.
Mike Myers the actor vs. Mike Myers of Halloween vs. Mike Myers (you), who would win in a Death Match?: Oh, good question. Obviously Mike Myers of Halloween. I don't think me or Austin Powers would stand a bit of a chance against the serial killer.
Do you own alot of shirts? If so, what's your favorite?: I own too many shirts! Let's see, my favorite would probably be... Robot Attack from DBH. It was a fun project to work on, and turned out great!
What was your favorite as a kid: comics, cartoons, or movies? Was there a specific title you liked most of all?: COMICS! I loved Youngblood. Looking back, I can't stand Liefeld. Weird how that happens.
What advice would you offer to aspiring designers?: Stick with it. There's something to be said for a solid foundation in traditional drawing. I would be nowhere without the years of sketching everything and anything.
What are a few of your favorite websites?: Lately I've been spending too much time on Emptees.com. Such a wide variety of designs on there. I also frequent the Threadless forums a lot, as well as checking out what's hot at DBH.
Any shout outs?: Huge shout out to anyone on my AIM list that I pester. You guys always give great feedback and advice. I wouldn't be here without you!

The red is the color of the shadows (as seen on the skin as well, which is the same color.). It's not bloody, just toilet paper stuck to his shoe.

Fat Possomsaid 140 weeks ago
Why would I want Superman with his butt hanging out on my chest? I'm so stumped by this. Really?
But once again, side art goes off like kids on fireworks. Probably would have picked up any of those. If of course, the blanks were fixed.
Why is it that the side art is always completely different from the T art? It actually works against the tshirt for me.
That's my $.02
This shirt is whack.

Funny, but why does he have a red streak running down his back - from his neck down through his buns???
