This is an older comic from the amazing web-comic series XKCD, but I loved it so much I just had to share it. And it's so true, isn't it? Sure, serious art lovers probably recognize Donatello for his artistic works, but does the average person? Probably not.
We all know that Leonardo painted The Last Supper, and that Michelangelo painted the roof of the Sistine Chapel, but what did Donatello do again? Oh that's right . . . he was the Ninja Turtle who wore a purple mask and used a bo staff.
On a related XKCD note, a little while back the comic featured a five part story called The Race, in which a giant fan of the TV show Firefly challenges actor Nathan Fillion (aka Captain Malcolm Reynolds) to an electric skateboard race. It's one of the funniest webcomics I've read in a long time, and is an absolute must read for Firefly fans. His depiction of Summer Glau is absolutely hilarious. You can check out the first part of that story here.
