God-Level Knowledge Darts

Cover design for the paperback edition of God-Level Knowledge Darts by Desus & Mero. The cover was inspired by the Bodega Boys brand, New York City, and street art. The cover was illustrated in collaboration with Mero, who's also a graffiti artist.

As a fan of the show & podcast, it was so exciting to work on this book!

I printed blank covers of the book that had the main type to sketch out different ideas. From there I composited all my favorite sketches into one, and Mero came in to re-illustrate some parts of the cover. It was so cool collaborating with someone I look up to, and he was awesome to work with.
