SARS Digital folk art, exhibit I: Door Gods

This one comes from a BoingBoing reader in China who prefers to remain anonymous. You know who you are. Thank you.

Update: our source explains: "Door gods are images posted on doors in ancient (and
modern) china to ward off evil spirits and kick demon
ass. i dont know who made it. it was forwarded in an email
to me by a graphic design friend. loads of similar
SARS funnies have been circulating for weeks now.
whomever made this one, however, is smart and should
start a t-shirt company."

SARS Digital folk art, exhibit H

Steven found this one. He says: "It's SARS-related "art" and it infringes a copyright at the same time. What more could you possibly ask for?"
