When Sin CIty came out, it was an instant smash hit because of its striking aesthetic, and now all Sin City mashups seek to recreate it. If any series or cultural phenomenon can utilize the dark and seedy look of Sin City to its fullest effect, it's Breaking Bad, and in this image, we see the two worlds collide.
The image is called Meth City by Punksthetic, which is a fitting title, as it simply combines the two names. The characters in the image are all from Breaking Bad, with Walter White taking the foreground, revolver in hand.
The look of the image however, is all Sin City. The stark contrast of the monochrome colors with the red of the title scream dark underground to the viewer.
