Duke Nukem
this alternative poster for Duke Nukem as a playful and subversive twist on the game's macho identity from the 90s. We'd take the traditionally hyper-masculine hero and reimagine him as a gay icon, striking a confident, almost defiant pose. He'd be rocking aviator sunglasses, contributing to his cool yet iconoclastic aura.


The color scheme pops with a high-contrast mix of intense reds and deep blues, possibly nodding to a patriotic vibe but here serving to underline a bold, vibrant aesthetic. The name "DUKE NUKEM" stands out in blocky, yellow typography, hinting at the original game or movie action vibe, but with an added layer of camp.


The whole concept plays with the juxtaposition of Duke's original persona and a celebration of queer culture, making a statement about the fluidity of identity and poking a bit of fun at the stereotypical action hero image.

Thanks for watching
