THE POST-PUNK / NEW WAVE SUPERVILLAIN SQUAD BY BUTCHER BILLY

A few weeks ago, I published an article featuring a collection of imaginative images illustrated by the Brazilian artist and graphic designer, Butcher Billy. Each image in this collection depicts a popular hero from the DC Universe as if they were being portrayed by a musician associated with the post-punk or new wave genres (click here to check that out). So, this week, I'm going to continue the motion, but this time, present you with the other side of the equation. Namely, a collection of images illustrated by Billy that depicts popular villains (I repeat, villains) from the DC Universe as if they were being portrayed by musicians associated with the post-punk or new wave genres. Please enjoy.
