Etsy based artists Lovebug and Snapdragon (who I featured in my 6 Awesome Themed Coloring Books post a short while back) are back with another kicker coloring book, this time based on the massive Netflix series Stranger Things.

The duo, who have released printable coloring books based on The Golden Girls, Beverly Hills 90210, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air and most recently 90’s sitcom Roseanne, have designed a 19 page coloring book (including cover) based on the 80’s themed                     sci-fi/mystery drama.

Pages to color include series heroine Eleven, judgmental Barb, Dustin “toothless” Henderson and mama bear Joyce Henderson, among others, all beautifully drawn with seriously clean line art.

It’s been well over a year since coloring books for adults began to saturate the market with everything from flora and fauna, star wars and fantasy line art all readily available to buy online and in stores all over.  So popular the trend that Secret Garden: An Inky Treasure and Coloring Book by Johanna Basford topped Amazons best selling list and has to date sold over 2 million copies world wide.

You’ll remember not too long ago, I delved into this world and wrote about some awesome finds for the pop culture minded as the range of books commonly available were filled with swirls and flowers and intertwining vines that weren’t my cup of tea.  Those Taylor Swift – Harry Styles – Jamie Dornan coloring books featuring base line art are starting to become more popular and more rampant on the market.

Take a peek at () books that are on my must-buy list!
