Most people would never compare the TV show SpongeBob SquarePants to God of War in any capacity. However, it seems that user u/Sir_MoonDoggy didn't let this fact stop them from creating one of the most unique pieces of gaming artwork around, as they combined the elements of God of War and SpongeBob to create something truly remarkable.
Reddit is a goldmine of fan content, with talented artists from all over the world posting their creative artwork on relevant subreddits for the world to see. The accessible nature of this site means that people who put effort into their posts are bound to enjoy some traction, which is why so many people were surprising enthralled by a piece of fan art that showed the beloved SpongeBob SquarePants taking on the role of Kratos in a ridiculous yet amusing combination of both characters.
If that wasn't great enough as is, the artist went the extra mile by adding a unique version of the Colossus of Rhodes too. This humongous enemy is portrayed by Squidward, and not just the regular version of this character. Instead, the Colossus is depicted by Handsome Squidward, a fav-favorite depiction of the show's cynical character who people seem to agree is the perfect fit for this role.

Suffice to say, the fan reception to this artwork has been quite positive, with people absolutely loving the sheer goofiness of this crossover fan art. It wouldn't be a stretch to say that some people would absolutely love the idea of playing a game where the titular God of War is replaced by an angry SpongeBob, who uses his dual spatulas and frycook experience to unleash a whole new world of pain to the enemies around him.
While the modern iteration of God of War has been nothing short of a runaway success, there are some long-time fans who miss the old games in the series where Kratos absolutely decimated the Greek gods in his quest for revenge. So, getting the opportunity to enjoy fan work that harkens back to the golden age of God of War is bound to be a treat!
With the reveal of God of War Ragnarok's trailer, most fans simply can't get enough of this series. This audacious attempt to mix elements of God of War and SpongeBob has been quite successful, with most people wondering what other characters can be represented in this crossover. Popular candidates include Mr. Krabs as Hades, Sandy as Athena, and Patrick as Zeus.
God of War Ragnarok will release for the PS4 and PS5 sometime in 2022.
