Oddly enough, John Malkovich crossed with Jack Nicholson looks a lot like Caesar Romero.

Love this. And then I had the "Wait isn't the Catherine Edelman Gallery...here... a mile from me right now." moment

Awesome.

The Nicholson/Joker image is also a reminder that Malkovich came within a hairsbreadth of playing the Riddler in "Batman Forever", but bolted when he found out that they were going in a broader/goofier direction with the franchise. If things had gone just a little differently, it could have been one of his finest jewel thief roles...

So great. I thought these were photoshops, at first glance, when I saw them earlier today on Twitter.
Can't seem to link directly, but my favourites are the Lennon/Ono one and the Dali one, (which is BRILLIANT.)
The Pierre et Gilles made me laugh out loud.
