Badass Tattooed Cartoons

The Illustrations by Odo are Filled With Pop Culture Body Ink

— December 5, 2011 — Pop Culture
Cartoons heroes never cease to be transformed by artists, and a good example of these marvelous transformations are the illustrations by French artist Odo. These comical drawings are funny and filled with pop culture images and references that will have culture junkies glued to these pieces.

These badass cartoon heroes have one thing in common: they're tattooed from head to toe with all sorts of images related to their fictional worlds. For example, Mickey Mouse from Disney has tattoos reminiscent of a satanic version of Pinocchio, a headless Bambie and a pornographic Minnie. All these figures have an evil feel to them, which is intensified by the dark theme of the body ink.

These hilarious and diabolic versions of cartoon heroes by Odo are definitely not appropriate for kids.
