I don’t know how fans photoshopping actor/writer Wil Wheaton’s face into other pop-culture properties became such a big thing. But it has. And I’m glad. As far as I can tell, it all started when Wheaton tweeted a photo of himself on a green screen and one of his followers, a graphic designer, quickly photoshopped him onto the bridge of the Enterprise. So he posted another green screen photo and things just evolved (devolved?) from there.

Oh, and now there’s a tumblr called Photoshop Wil Wheaton, which is where we found all of these and where you can submit your own.
