38-year-old Brazilian artist Bily Mariano da Luz, better known as Butcher Billy, creates covers of those 60 cents worth classic comic books inspired by the TV show “Black Mirror.” In this ongoing series called “Dark Tales From The Black Mirror” Butcher Billy reimagines the episodes of the show in his own, twisted way, adding elements of horror, suspense, crime, or romance.
Scroll down to see this series of 80s-style comic books covers based on one of the most thought-provoking TV shows ever for yourself.

I love Black Mirror, but this episode was the weakest one, in my opinion. :-( Too clichéd, and when it comes to the apocalypse, what a waste of three perfectly fine adults in an attempt to minimally comfort a dying child. I swear that the whole time I was thinking "I bet the super important thing they needed was a teddy bear." Yup... "Tragic."

You had no idea what was going on or who the characters were, which made it hard (or in my case impossible) to care about them. A bit more backstory would have made you feel for this person and what she was going through, but now it was like "yeah ok, this unknown is going to die for some unknown reason and now she's saying goodbye to her family of unknowns...Okay then. "
You HAVE to update this to include Bandersnatch, Striking Vipers, Smithereens, and Rachel, Jack, and Ashley Too.
Just wanted to thank the artist for making me want to watch the show! It's an awesome series I'd overlooked, but I started watching after this post. You should definitely get a job in advertising; your art captured the feel of the show perfectly while still being original art.
It's a show on Netflix. Each episode is a stand alone story. It's really good, you should try it if you've never seen it.
