John Constantine vs. Neo (348/365)

Posted to Flickr on 14 December 2010. Part of the Duel 365 series.

John Constantine: A foul-mouthed occult detective with a network of associates all over the world who fights supernatural forces, wears a grungy trenchcoat, and pursues a unique life of danger, weirdness, and sorcery.

Neo: Thomas Anderson, an office worker who escaped the control of the Matrix thanks to a network of fellow hackers, wears a slick, black trenchcoat, and is considered "The One" to bring peace to humanity.

If they had to fight, who would win?

Duel 365

Duel 365 was a year-long project I started in 2010. The goal was to post one photo each day depicting a duel, usually between two pop culture figures, and asking the question, "If they had to fight, who would win?" At the request of those who came to follow the project, I also provided text descriptions of each character. One of the rules was to avoid using the same figure in multiple photos. Another challenge was that I was not allowed to use Photoshop or other advanced photo editors to create the scenes; all editing was done either in-camera or with Apple’s iPhoto software. Over 700 figures were used for the project, which believe it or not represents only a small part of my toy collection.
