Hehe, you won't really get the joke unless you're familiar with both Les Miserables and Sweeney Todd. Though I guess everyone can relate to pointless violence, so it's all good!
It's really quite interesting how similar Jean Valjean and Sweeney Todd are. They're both victims of a corrupt judicial system. They're both ex-convicts who lose their families. They even both have a pretty daughter (Cosette and Johanna) who is wooed by a young sexy guy (Marius and Antony, respectively).
But I think the winner of this contest is Sweeney. Sorry Valjean, but he's got a razor. Take that.

Hahaha wow, I never realized the similarities either...I honestly prefer Jean Valjean in all seriousness, cause there ain't nothin like redemption. Yeah.
But Sweeney's good for a laugh. X)

Yeah, but Edmond got himself a fancy treasure and all, which is kinda' different. Besides, Sweeney can only kill one person at a time. :3 Edmond will have to wait.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
Have a great time everyone and please fav this article so as many people can see the featured works. I would recommend seeing each one and faving them too.
