Ever wondered how some of our beloved popular characters have evolved over time?

With each passing year, many things change, and characters of popular culture do, too, get their characteristics modified from time to time.

With that drawing idea in mind, an artist from Los Angeles - Jeff Victor - has depicted exactly that - evolutions of the most iconic pop culture characters from their earliest concepts to how you may recognize them today. The cartoon drawings are truly pleasing and unique, putting all that creative work behind infamous characters into a new perspective.

But, please, by all means, scroll down and see the character designs for yourself!

    Christopher Lloyd really did age to look very similar to the "aged" Doc. Michael J. Fox, on the other hand, has aged like 10 years in the past 33 years. Lol

    They are not the same person at all. The First guy is Shazam aka Captain Marvel - DC Comics and from the third its Marvel comics - Captain Marvel.

    Technically, I think most of these guys were their own separate characters. The first one is a DC character and the rest are Marvel ones who share the same name and quite possibly powers.

    Technically there were two different characters, three even. One was owned by marvel and got their powers from a skrull, and the other was owned by DC and got his powers from the greek gods.

    That's the wrong captain marvel to start with. That is the DC's captain marvel (now called shazam) for the 1939 one

    I was confused a first since the first one is Shazam but then I googled it they just have the same name but Shazam was just renamed for fans not to be mistaken for Captain Marvel of MARVEL.

    1939 looks an awful lot like Shazam...I wonder if DC ripped off Marvel or Marvel ripped off DC?

    Technically there are many Green Lanterns. There was never one singular one--although for years I used to think Hal Jordan was the only one and that for the animated Justice League series, they made him black in order to be more ethical minded--not knowing that this was actually another Green Lantern entirely.
