I remember this, stumbled onto them a few years ago. Good stuff.
AWESOME!

Looking at it again now, so I'll take some time for personal kibitzing, because why not:
2/He: Shouldn't he have a balloon? Or BE a balloon?
3/Li: I just noticed the slice marks...actually kinda dark, given its medical relevance!
4/Be: Sooo...she's like She-Hulk, except with a lot less muscle, and a lot more
5/B: "Oh, hey. Look. I've created Floo Powder. Yay."
7/N: I just want to say, the lower/"toxic" incarnation has a great expression. Somehow conveys her nature in no obvious way.
13/Al: *insert Red Bull joke here*
15/P: I can't wait to see Dakota Fanning play this character.
19/K: Perhaps he should look like Borat? Just a thought.
20/Ca: Somehow, that is the scariest damned milk mustache I have ever seen.
22/Ti: Can you say "Rick & Morty fanart?" Granted, it's better art than the actual show by far....
25/Mn: Pay attention, everyone: This is what adult-onset psychic powers looks like.
26/Fe: So...is he supposed to look like he's ashamed of his "rust problem?"
27/Co: Cobalt is named for kobolds. She should look like a kobold.
29/Cu: He should look like an Ancient Egyptian.
31/Ga: DORK!!! That is all.
33/As: Shouldn't she look like a lace-bedecked senile old lady?
36/Kr: No it isn't.
38/Sr: Let this be a lesson to us all: A dork in a kilt...is still a dork.
39/Y: Really; if you're going to specifically use the phrase "strange and mystical," he should at least look something like this.
41/Nb: NO. Niobe wasn't a goddess. So don't call her that. *swats artist with newspaper*
47/Ag: Perhaps she should have an Eva Perón hairstyle, a gaucho hat, a Lone Ranger mask, or spurs, or something.
48/Cd: Why does she look like she's in a hurry? Also, give her some dragon's teeth!
51/Sb: Looks like she's on the lookout for an apartment-prowler in a green mask....
54/Xe: Really? Couldn't think of a better fact or use? Nice picture, though.
55/Cs: If I could shower in fire rather than water, I would too.
56/Ba: "'Ey, Bawss? Whadda we gonna do wit' alla 'dese dead bodies, Bawss? 'Cuz I 'tink we should...BARIUM! HAW HAW HAAAWWW!"
57/La: When you down a glass of vodka to steady your nerves just before you go onstage....
58/Ce: Hansel and Gretel meet their match.
61/Pm: A Titan, not a god.
64/Gd: Some people are honest and brave, with a deep-seated drive to right wrongs and solve problems even if they're difficult to understand or far away. Other people try listening to loud music while their hair's on fire.
66/Dy: Kilroy was here...but she was there first.
67/Ho: "D'oh! I KNEW I should have worn my 'I am not Benedict Cumberbatch' shirt today...."
68/Er: If Rosie the Jetsons' maid were anthropoid.
70/Yb: "Huuur, gederk-kedur, kederkee hergie-fergie - DORK DORK DORK!!!"
73/Ta: NO. NOT. A. GOD. NO!
77/Ir: Every time you hear about a possible killer asteroid...imagine this person throwing it at us.
80/Hg: He should look like Ed Wynn and have a huge hat, don't you think?
84/Po: "I'm SO SOOORRRRY I killed that Russian journalist! They made me do it! *sob*"
86/Rd: This guy, on the other hand, looks like he enjoys his work.
88/Ra: Leprechaun + Power-Up from Altered Beast = ???
89/Ac: He's like the 98-lb. weakling from the old Charles Atlas ads, except woe be to any who kick sand in his face!
90/Th: Okaaayyy...we just had all those entries of scary radioactive superbeings, but suddenly we're moving on to EPIC DORK!?!
91/Pa: Whoever, or whatever, he is, he just makes me want to tell him 'I'm sorry'.
92/U: *slow clap* "The Little Boy". Well done. Maybe the best thing in this whole lineup.
93/Np: We've got the element, the fact...but how does that picture relate? I really don't get this one.
94/Pu: I get it: "The Fat Man." Interesting how he looks A LOT less distressed, confused, or apologetic.
95/Am: *cue the chorus of Rorschach-test-induced screams about how/why this is somehow an offensive portrayal of America*
96/Cm-112/Cn: Aaand while the scientist pictures are nice (and the mop-topped German kids rather spooky and inexplicable), this is otherwise where it gets dull - but to be fair, how much else can one do with elements whose existence is mostly a technicality?
Hydrogen should be wearing a spacesuit. When he/she opens it, they can hear and smell unlimited distance. Hydrogen is everywhere. A little thin in space.
If touched off, it goes off like a nuclear bomb and reforms as a helium elemental.
