Official BLACK MIRROR Artist BUTCHER BILLY Aigns Up for Graphic Novel Adaptations

He will be creating new covers for the official graphic novels, from Twisted Comics

Butcher Billy, known for his episodic art for each Black Mirror episode, has signed up to be the official cover artist for the upcoming Black Mirror graphic novels from independent publisher Twisted Comics. Building on the iconic artwork fans have come to know and love, he will be creating brand new covers for the graphic novels, revisiting each episode in this new form.

Since Butcher’s original stylised take on the episodes of Black Mirror reimagined as retro comic posters in 2016, he has gone on to be an official artist for the show at Netflix, creating imagery for each episode, including the newly aired Season 7 earlier this year, as well as on-screen visuals. He has since gone on to work on other series artwork including Stranger Things with the streaming giant, and developed his Tortured Poets Department-inspired series of Taylor Swift pop art, which was displayed across the UK.

The first graphic novel adaptation will be USS Callister, written by Neil Gibson and illustrated by Silvano Beltramo, and launches this summer via Kickstarter. Fans can sign up to be notified when the campaign is live, and be first to access rare and exciting items, in both the real and virtual world.

Other episodes in the pipeline for adaptation include San Junipero, with more to be revealed.

Banijay Rights represents a range of global ancillary rights for the Black Mirror brand. Created by Charlie Brooker and Annabel Jones, the dark satirical anthology series taps into our collective unease with the modern world. Each stand-alone episode is a sharp, suspenseful tale exploring themes of contemporary paranoia.
