There are two things you need to know about Italian comic book artist, Francesco Francavilla: Firstly, he produces some of the best pulp and retro-styled pictures you're ever likely to come across and, secondly, he has created possibly the most perfect minimalist posters for the hit TV show, Breaking Bad; the latter project purely as a hobby.
In 2009 he created The Black Beetle, a comic series he originally made for his Pulp Sunday blog, which has since been picked up by Dark Horse Comics, gaining him much critical acclaim. And he has also produced a long line of fantastic covers for many publications (including Dark Shadows, The Spider, Hellboy, Sherlock Homes and The Shadow to name but a few), earning him an Eisner award in 2012.
