Iconic Cartoon Zombie Makeovers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Albert Montoya Murders Beloved Pop Culture Characters in His Work

— December 3, 2013 — Art & Design
American illustrator Alebert Montoya is back again with more gruesome zombie like illustrations after his big hit series 'Zombie Sense.'

This time Albert has taken iconic cartoon and video game characters and turned them into brain-feasting maniacs. This line of illustrations portrays epic characters such as Batman to Bart Simpson looking hungry as ever for human flesh. Yikes! Albert Montoya likes to play on irony with turning civilian saving characters into blood hungry villains for a more fun and abstract kind of art. These illustrations are incredibly detailed and even have me scared if I stare for too long.

This new series of Montoya's work is bursting with color and gruesome detail, which makes it as much of an outstanding hit as his others.
