Pop Culture Characters Before They've Had Their Morning Coffee

If you’re always grumpy before your daily caffeine fix, you’ll relate to Samuel Milham’s paintings of pop culture characters ahead of their morning cup of joe, spotted by Bored Panda. You might remember Milham, an Australian illustrator, from his 2013 series depicting Super Mario characters as hipsters. In his latest project—aptly titled the "Caffeine Junkies Series"—Milham transforms TV and movie figures into hilariously bleary-eyed cartoon characters, mugs in hand. They, like the rest of us, look a little worse for wear pre-coffee.
