This Artist Draws Superheroes On US Money

You know what they always say: if you're going to deface currency, do it with style.

That's the attitude taken by Allan Johnson, anyway. The digital artist shared a portfolio of cool and funny digital manipulations of US currency at Moviepilot, replacing the faces of American leaders with characters from comics, video games and film.

"After leaving behind my graphite pencils back in early 2014, I made it my goal to start my digital art journey with some money makeovers," he explained. "With the help of my Wacom tablet and Manga Studio 5 programmed on my MacBook Pro, popular heroes, villains, and other well-known fictional characters made their way to the bills in a digital fashion."

[I, too, have such a tablet, but most of my art comes out looking less like this and more like Art Baltazar and Franco's Tiny Titans work, if someone were hitting them in the fingers with hammers while they drew.]

You can check out the gallery below. Johnson has made the images available as prints on his website.
