Join the Club. I would like to buy it to but it just doesn't fit my budget!

It's really cool-looking, but I'm with Jack in that I'd only pay big bucks for something more in keeping with my preferred style.

Well, to be fair, it is a signed limited edition of 100 prints - I think it deserves to be that expensive.
I personally think it's a cool style. Very nice "art deco" influence. Not to get personal, but I think some of you would perhaps do well to widen your perspectives a bit - it's stylized, for pete's sake. Just because these villains have an established character model doesn't mean they can't be played around with - more power to Michiell for doing it.
Let me pose a question for y'all - would you be more apt to buy a print of Disney characters if they were simply cut 'n pasted, commonly found clip art? Sure they'd be on model, but even if they were composed in an interesting way, they still wouldn't be original.
But anyhoo, I wouldn't be so averse to the pic - it's just another stylized interpretation, after all the debate dies.

Life often leaves us standing bare, naked and dejected with a lost opportunity. Over the bleached bones and jumbled residues of numerous civilizations are written the pathetic words: "Too late."

It's not very cool at all. It doesn't include Pete - the most important villain of them all!
As for the style, it's no my cup of tea (then again, I don't drink tea so nothing is my cup of tea I suppose), but I certainly see it as art.
One definition of "Art" is to challenge people's perceptions and people's beliefs. I think this does the job. I sort of like half of the characters, but some are just too far out for me.
Is it worth the money? Sure, if you're willing to pay the money!

I saw it on some online art store for like 15000, it wasn't an auction or anything. Not sure if that one was autographed.
