A new piece of fanart featuring Iron Man and MODOK is the freakiest fight between two Marvel characters fans will ever see. There have been many famous fights between heroes and villains in the Marvel Universe over the years. There have been legendary battles between characters like Black Panther and Killmonger, Spider-Man and the Green Goblin, and even DC's Joker against Red Skull. What's more interesting though is the speculation from fans about what fights would look like should two unlikely forces collide in a duel. This has been popular among manga fans in particular with some artists depicting epic fights between Goku and One Punch Man. However, a new piece of art has pitted two of the most unlikely foes together in a freaky and unique way.Artist El Cubista Friki took to Twitter to create an epic duel between famous Avenger Iron Man and the mighty MODOK in a duel for the ages. The artwork depicts the two in the middle of a fight as MODOK charges toward Stark. However, fans will notice that this isn't any ordinary piece of fanart. Rather than the two looking similar to how they appear in the comics, El Cubista Friki gives them different artistic designs similar to classic art. MODOK's face is all broken up into different segments that come together to form his head and limbs similar to cubism made famous by Pablo Picasso. Meanwhile, Iron Man is drawn in a pose reminiscent of Adam in Michelangelo's The Creation of Adam. It's artwork that will make any art scholar glimpse in awe at the exquisite detail poured into every pixel.Related: Iron Man Fanart Redesign Is Tony Stark Like You've Never Seen Him Before

A Deeper Look at Iron Man and MODOK's Artistic Designs

Taking a look deeper into the choices made for each character, Iron Man's pose as Adam from Michaelangelo's famous Sistine Chapel fresco is sure to draw some intrigue. It's entirely possible that the artist chose this pose to make Iron Man's appearance a reference to classic art. However, looking at future analyses of the original artwork, there's another interesting interpretation. Scholars have noted that the depiction of God in the original piece is placed in front of an anatomically correct portrayal of the human brain. In a way, this would mean that God is giving Adam the gift of knowledge. This could fit Iron Man perfectly because he's used this knowledge to craft the famous Iron Man suit that's being used to take on MODOK. Tony Stark is known for being one of the smartest characters in the Marvel Universe, so likening him to Adam in the original work by Michelangelo isn't too far-fetched.

MODOK, on the other hand, is an interesting story. His design is obviously modeled with cubism in mind. Similar to the works of Pablo Picasso in the 20th century, two-dimensional shapes are pieced together to form one thing: MODOK himself. In a way, it's a perfect way to feature the character because of how odd he is as a concept. The fact that he's a gigantic head with tiny limbs floating around as one of the main faces of AIM is ridiculous in concept. The choice to create him using traditional cubism methods is a brilliant way to bring him into the fight of a piece that focuses on classic art. MODOK is currently slated to finally make his first appearance in the MCU with Ant-Man 3, so this artwork by El Cubista Friki is a great way to show fans who he is as a character.

This fanart is undoubtedly one of the coolest concepts for a battle between two Marvel characters. Not only is it an interesting choice in heroes and villains, but it also brings a unique style to it to make it different from other pair-ups. El Cubista Friki created an amazing piece of artwork to show what it would be like if Iron Man and MODOK fought while paying homage to classic art.
