Look up deadly prey gallery, the website hosting the picture. They commission some OG artists & some new artists to make new posters specifically in this style. It's legit. This one is signed by Nana Agyq.

You don't have to take my word for it. Instead of suspecting, please read up on deadly prey gallery, as I had suggested.

I looked, a lot of these are definitely ironic, including almost certainly the paddington one. Oh well, enjoyable link regardless.


I had the exact same human experience.
