As tarot fans know, there are a gazillion different and often highly specialized (even arcane) commercial tarot decks available for sale. But, alas, there is no official Avengers Tarot deck. (There is, however, an Avengers deck of regular playing cards. I know because I bought one this summer. Cribbage games will never be the same now, LOL!)
Anyway, the lack of an official Avengers Tarot deck does not stop artists on the internet from producing their own Major Arcana tarot art cards featuring various Avengers and related Marvel characters. Here's a few of my faves. The artists and their links are noted below each card.
1. THE MAGICIAN [Tony Stark / Iron Man] [Loki, God of Mischief]

Some of those are a little risque ... not that there's anything wrong with that.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'd like to get the title of God of Mischief!
This deck is different, for sure. I like it.
ReplyDeleteThe Devil is my favourite! So appropriate!
ReplyDeleteDeal me in!
ReplyDeleteDear Heart...as you know, I am too old to understand any of this...but...
ReplyDeletekudos to the people that created these works of art.
Well lots of Avengers clad in nothing but blankets and shields. Kind of hot if you ask me.
ReplyDeleteThese are awesome! I especially like The Hermit.
ReplyDeletePics are nice, but that's how far it goes, friend D … Love, cat.
ReplyDeleteAwesome artwork. Gotta love that devil though.
ReplyDeleteLove these. My son has gotten me into all the superhero movies. We always go together now. I am still in shock and sad after seeing Infinity Wars. We saw Antman a few weeks ago and I was sad all over again at the end. How are they going to fix this?
ReplyDeleteI love these but I can't help looking for John Steed and Emma Peel.
ReplyDeleteThat Julia Cross... mmmhmm. She's got a hell of a box of crayons!
ReplyDeleteLovely, lovely, lovely.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
I like them, especially updated "death" with a gun.
ReplyDeleteThe Lover doesn't look like he's doing terribly well ... she looks pretty bored.
ReplyDeleteThe picture of Thor looks like his cock must be fucking enormous. Look how he is standing. He is straining under the weight of it. I can tell you that there can be too much of a good thing. Ouch.
ReplyDeleteOh, these are so creative!
ReplyDeleteThese are amazing! Wow!! I can imagine you playing cribbage with your cards! LOL! You are too cute Debra! Big Hugs!
ReplyDelete@ Birdie -- Well, this post elicited a whole new side of you! I am shocked, missy, SHOCKED! Hahahaha!
ReplyDeleteHow long have you been reading tarot cards and do you give readings for people? I've always been curious about tarot cards. I bought a deck years ago with the intention to learn something about them, but I think they found a place on the corner of my favorite junk closet. Needless to say to date I still know virtually nothing about them. Oh well! Maybe that can be a rainy day project.
ReplyDelete@ Mildred Ratched -- I've been reading tarot for over 25 years and yes, I do private readings for family and friends. The cards never cease to fascinate me!
ReplyDeleteBut you scrolled back and looked, right? And was I right? I mean dear god. WTF?
ReplyDeleteOh, my, Steve me some Rogers, Thor me some more!
ReplyDeleteThe MCU certainly shifted to the Cap-Black Widow romance than her relationship with Hawkeye
ReplyDeleteThat is quite a collection..I like the Hermit...Welcome back!! Are you back??
ReplyDelete@ Missy George -- Yes, I'm back!
ReplyDeleteI'll have to remember no.19 next time I get caught in a thunderstorm.
ReplyDeleteFabulous creations Debra. My favourite is The Hermit. Do you have a favourite or is it like choosing a favourite child, if one had children.
ReplyDeleteGreat to see you back my friend and in fine form too!
Big hugs
Peggy xxxx
@ miruspeg -- I do like them all, but my faves are Steve Rogers/Strength, Peggy Carter/Temperance and Thor & Loki/The Tower.
ReplyDeleteHm, it seems I'm not playing with a full deck. I know: gimme some of that Strength and Justice. =)
ReplyDeleteTake care, Deb.
Why wasn't I included in that group???

I found your Tarot pages looking down your list of posts. Also saw the tag tarot in your profile. I'm not really a dabbler in it by any means. But I find the insights of the cards interesting and love looking at the different decks. I think I must have had the ordinary deck as a child. Who forgets the Death card?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I wrote a little Tarot advice for bloggers. You might find it amusing to read. Hey, it might even improve your blog. LOL NO, you need no improvement. I love reading all you do.
My tarot write up is on one of my Page tabs.
