Month: October 2015

That's a lot stronger meat than I expected from an Atlas/Marvel horror comic. It really foretells The Manster, that's for sure. EC would have titled it "Split Decision" or something, though. Went to my childhood haunt the Pickwick theater last night, where my old friend Matt Hoffman ran Abbott & Costello Meets Frankenstein on…

Let's admit it, when you work at a place called "Horrormoor," your reputation is sort of baked in the cake. Meanwhile, that girl who stumbled in from an Archie comic must be horribly confused.

Sorry about yesterday, the site was down before I left for work, then I went out last night. Still, Halloween draws ever closer. "Lost in the Graveyard" seems the least of his problems. I really, really miss the day where you'd draw this and then toss in a bat to make it spookier.

It's Halloween week! I think I'll do some Marvel horror comics from the EC era. These look pretty sweet, although suspect they were rather tame compared to EC's stuff, given that it was the latter that led to the creation of the Comics Code. I assume The Ghost Still Walks because who can afford…

Another shot from The Thing prequel/redo. Not my bag, really. The extraction / healing so far has been pretty painless. Mostly it's about not disturbing the blood clot so you don't get a horrific sounding thing called dry socket. By Sunday I might try Mac & Cheese and see how that goes. So far…

I heard the 2011 prequel of The Thing was actually just more of a complete remake/rip-off, and thus quite lame. I didn't see it, though, so I have no evidence as to whether this is true.

Note that this isn't in his chest, so it's completely different. Let the puns begin! Speaking of horrors, the Cubs are in danger of getting swept and I have to have a crumbling tooth extracted tomorrow, just in time for my normally super-fun annual Halloween get together with my old library friends. Wheeeeeeeee!

Finally! Ripping off The Thing rather than Alien.

I said eariler that Leviathan ripped off Alien as well as The Thing, but then I could find no stills proving such a thing. Apparently I was wrong.
