The BazaarBritish science fiction series Black Mirrorwas a cult hit for years until Netflix picked it up this year in the U.S. and the series went mainstream.
Now an artist has taken some of the most talked about episodes and turned them into brilliant old school comic book covers, each with accurate episode titles and other information.

Included in the artist's collection are designs for Black Mirror fan favorite episodes "The National Anthem," "Nosedive," "White Bear," "The Entire History of You" and "San Junipero."

Butcher Billy's work is so impressive that on Saturday Black Mirrorcreator Charlie Brooker reached out to the artist on Twitter to ask how he could get his hands on prints of the images.
@billythebutcher so good! gonna have to order prints of these - how might I do that?
— Charlie Brooker (@charltonbrooker) December 10, 2016
Billy promptly responded to Brooker with a personal message. But if you're interested in snagging the designs yourself, the artist already has a site up where you can buy the covers as posters, t-shirts, hoodies and even smartphone cases.
