All-New Superpowered Post-Punk Marvels is a new and awesome illustrated project by Brazilian designer Butcher Billy that reimagines famous post-punk and new wave rock stars as epic comic book superheroes from the Marvel universe. This is a follow up to Billy’s 2013 series of illustrations showcasing post-punk and new wave musicians as superheroes from DC Comics.

While people still debate on what really makes a pop culture icon, now it’s time for good old Earth 616 to host a gang of All-New, Almighty Post-Punk Heroes we know and love.
