Artist Puts Together ‘Super Families’ From Our Favorite Characters (30 Pics)
French artist Andry "Shango" Rajoelina creates adorable illustrations of famous characters from pop culture as families. In the illustrations, 'the parents' are usually the leaders, the oldest or the wisest characters from the TV series, movies, video games or books. All the other characters are turned into children.
Andry's art style is very soft, whimsical, and magical. He creates very fun illustrations that brighten up your day, not to mention he draws all of our favorite characters! He takes inspiration from many popular media, so you're sure to find the characters you love on his page—anything from Marvel, DC, to Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter!

Harry Potter (Wizards Family)
I always wished Harry named Albus after Hagrid instead of snape. Hagrid was so father like to him
Andry told us: "I've worked as a character designer in animation for more than 11 years now, and during my free time back in 2012, I started this series of illustrations with the Bat-Family for Father's Day. The idea of Batman bringing Robin and Batgirl to school just popped out, I just wanted to make something cute with these characters.
Marvel (Udonta Family)
"The following Father's Day, a year later, I decided to make another one with Superman, Supergirl, and Superboy, and then other members of the Justice League (Wonder Woman, The Flash, etc...)," shared the artist about how he continued this project.
Marvel (Excelsior Family)
"Then I decided to try with more pop culture characters, superheroes, characters from TV series, movies, video games, etc., but not randomly chosen. What I find interesting with this series is to find the right characters who could be represented as a family, find the right bond between them."
Mandalorian (Mando Family)
"The parental figures I've represented are not necessarily the biological parents, it can be an uncle, a master, a leader, a protector, a new friend but older and from another dimension, a fluffy babysitter, or even an old guy who told you to take a sword because it's dangerous to go alone."
Avengers (Family Assemble)
Marvel (Asgard Family)
True, true. TBH, Thor is kinda the odd one out because Loki and Hela have dark hair, and are both pretty evil (except Loki, he's a lil bean), and Thor has blonde hair, and is a member of the Avengers.

Their little pretend weapons! The cardboard with a lightbulb. It's so cute!
If u look closely u can see loki and hela's helmet as keychains on loki's BP i think
The artist told us more about what inspires him to create and how he got into art: "Literally anything inspired me, fashion, other artists' works, my family life, what I read, play and watch. After spending a year in medical school, I quickly realized that I wasn't meant for this. I've always liked to draw so I thought why not make something with it, and my parents allowed me to spend 4 years studying art and I started working in the animation industry after that. 12 years after, I'm still working in animation and couldn't be more grateful to my parents who helped me and agreed to let me leave medical school."
My Neighbor Totoro (Neighbor Family)
this is adorable I've always considered them a family since I watched the movie
Guardians Of The Galaxy (Guardians Family)
No. WE are Groot. (I just couldn't help myself)

I could have told that being a father inspired me to do this series, but at that time, I wasn't a father yet. I guess I was eager to share stories of my favorite characters with my future kids."
Lord Of The Rings (Middle Earth)
I think maybe Aragorn and Arwen coulda been the parents and Gandolf is the grandfather or godfather or whatever
If smegol (idk if that’s how I spell it I’m really bad at spelling) was alive I would include him in this family too because he couldn’t help himself after the ring took over his kind
So would I (It's spelt Smeagol so you were close but it doesn't matter)
Load More Replies...Stranger Things (Hawkins Family)
The artist told us how he picks the characters to draw: "For this series, I mostly work on characters I know and love, but sometimes people suggest me characters that could match with the idea of parental figures and their kids. Characters are not randomly chosen, the idea is to find the right bond between them, to find the right characters who could be represented as a family of characters with a fraternal link."
Game Of Thrones (Winterfell Family)
Only four survived. (Counting jon since he’s family and here)
Load More Replies...Marvel (Thanos Family)
as much as I hate thanos for what he did to gamora I gotta say I love this one
Andry shared his favorite characters and universe: "Mostly characters and movies from my childhood like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Jurassic Park, Back to the Future, The Goonies and most recently Spider-Man (since Sam Raimi's take on the character) and the Guardians of the Galaxy (James Gunn completely got me with his take on this bunch of A-holes)"
Back To The Future (Family From The Future)
Marvel (Stark Family)
The artist tells us more about himself: "I would say cruising on my longboard, (I rarely leave the house without it), playing video games and Lego, and it's even more fun when I can share these moments with my son and hopefully later with my baby girl.
Yes, I'm still a child in an adult's body and I would say that in a way, working as a character and color artist in the animation industry ("PJ Masks", "Mush-Mush and the Mushables" and currently "Samurai Rabbit: The Usagi Chronicles" for Netflix) doesn't help me growing up. Paying tribute to the characters who rocked my childhood is also a way of thanking my parents for letting me watch cartoons, take me to the movies, buy toys and video games. I hope my kids will keep as many good memories as I could have when I was a child."
Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse (Spider Verse Family)
There's a sticker on Gwen's bag that looks a lot like Noir's face

Monsters, Inc. (Monsters Family)
"I won't stop finding new Super Families. I have plenty more of them in mind, I just need to find the time to work on them between work and taking care of my very own Super Family."

Winterfell is where the Starks live, but that's what they're called as well--Winterfell family

The Tramp (Tramps Family)
Aw The Tramp and Kid. Fun fact- the kid in this 1920s movie grew up to be Uncle Fester in the original Addams Family!
His name was Jackie Coogan and there is a law in the U.S. because of him that any minor getting paid to act legally has to register a court-blocked account (Called a Coogan account) with a financial institution that only they can access when they turn 18. A portion of all earnings must be deposited into that account. This is done to protect the earnings from being exploited by the child's parents or guardian, which happened to Jackie. It's called The California Child Actor's Bill, or The Coogan Act.
