These Black Mirror retro comic book covers are awesome
A Brazilian artist has created a set of retro comic book covers inspired by Black Mirror, and they are pretty amazing.
Billy the Butcher created the artwork after he binge-watched the series on Netflix, and now they've gone viral.
Check out some of the covers below:

Billy told Buzzfeed that, while streaming the series, he was so "inspired" he couldn't stop sketching.
He said: "So I started with the first episode and couldn't stop anymore. I binge-watched the hell out of the whole series - felt so inspired that I started sketching in the middle of the episodes."
Black Mirror creator Charlie Brooker is one of the artist's fans, and has asked if he can buy the prints.
@billythebutcher so good! gonna have to order prints of these - how might I do that?

He added: "I tagged him on the first pieces but wasn't expecting him to notice - considering that he has about a million followers - and be so nice about it.
"He's not just a brilliant writer, he's also such a cool guy."
And apparently Brooker is now the proud owner of his very own Black Mirror artwork.
If you're thinking you fancy having the same artwork as Brooker hanging above your mantelpiece, or perhaps on a T-shirt, Billy the Butcher has plenty of merch you can check out here.
Black Mirror is streaming on Netflix now.
