'CatsAndRecreation' is a designer whose most recent work includes an extensive series of [pop art posters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/makeposter) that advertise the Game of Thrones episodes. Each of the posters makes use of a contemporary [comic book style](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-dark-knight-collection), with the impressive illustrations of CatsAndRecreation noting the dark themes of each perfectly.

The artist's creations translate the medieval setting of the series to incorporate abstract elements that tease the plot from the Game of Thrones episodes. With this, CatsAndRecreation reveals snippets of the story theme with stunning illustrations that are partly explained by ominous captions that go along with each of them.

The posters are said to have been revealed before the finale of the sixth season of the series, with a total of 59 renditions by CatsAndRecreation currently available to be enjoyed by fans.
