Massive update!
New Prints available at the Festival of Fear
First, Rue Morgue's annual Festival of Fear is fast approaching! I'll be at the convention from August 24-26th and on Saturday at 1:00pm, I'll be at the Rue Morgue Radio booth signing Rue Morgue posters and back issues. I'll also have two new art prints available and what's left of my Skull of Wax t-shirts for sale! After the convention, the art prints will be available for purchase online through my Merch of Menace store. These are high quality, giclée print's are on acid-free stock, and limited to 25 each. There will also be some new Rue Morgue merch that will be available at the con, namely a creepy-cool coffee mug by our new graphic designer Justin Erickson and a new Rue Morgue Magazine t-shirt design commemorating Rue Morgue's 10 years of investigating horror in culture and entertainment. If your a horror, comic, sci-fi, and (god help you) anime fan, the FanExpo is not to be missed! Check out Rue Morgue for more info on the show. Drop by the Rue Morgue booth and say hi, if you dare!!
The Creepshow
I've just completed two new t-shirt designs and a tour poster for The Creepshow. They will be selling the shirts at their shows, and these guys are a riot live, so be sure to check out The Creepshow's MySpace page for when and where their invading your town!
Monster Vodoo Machine
Monster Voodoo Machine also commissioned me for a quick t-shirt design. Adam Doom from the band needed something fast, so click the pic below to view their new design!
Pete Zedlacher
I got an interesting letter from a local stand up comedian, Pete Zedlacher, who wanted me to draw up a logo and a promotional poster for his comedy act. He had some fun ideas and it involved zombies, so how could I say no?
I have to say I've never done anything quite like it, so check the final product below!
Revolver Magazine
Revolver Magazine, the loudest rock mag on earth, has commissioned me to do an illustration for the band Ministry. Being a fan of both things, I was very happy to do this, as Revolver has been a constant staple on my night stand for a few years. Click the pic below for a sneak peek at the piece!
Monster Creature Feature
Sometime this month, Ormon Grimbsy and his late night cable show, Monster Creature Feature TV out of North Carolina, will be airing an episode featuring an interview with yours truly! The interview will run with the film The Head, so check their site towards the end of the month to download the segment.
The Fallow
Last but never least, Dave Alexander, managing editor and good friend at Rue Morgue, asked me to create a couple creature designs for his first short film, The Fallow. The special effects guys at Gaslight Studios took the sketches and turned them into a pulsating reality and I'm totally blown away by what they did! The film is in post-production and no word on when it will be finished, but I'll be sure to post pics of the ghastly creations when I can.
That's if for now, thanks for reading and...
Stay Ghoul!

The Skull of Wax t-shirts have arrived and are ready for shipping! Keep in mind that this is a limited edition shirt so I have limited stock in all sizes. Currently there are three places where you can buy the Skull of Wax t-shirt:

November 2006
We've returned from our New York trip after attending the opening of the Living Dead Dolls Art Show on October 31, 2006.
Over 100 artists contributed a doll to the one of a kind show and I have to say I was blown away by some of the entries. We met up with LDD creators Ed Long and Damien Glonek and met fellow artists Tim Huesken and Jim Koch. The dolls ranged from truly astounding to completely bizarre and I thank Ed, Damien and Mezco for allowing me to participate. Please click on the thumbnail to see my creation for the event. Meet Monsterboy!
And, as always, please check back here for updates and some exciting merch news!

In conjunction with the DVD release of The Hilarious House of Frightenstein Volume One, here is a picture of the first official Hilarious House of Frightenstein T-shirt from Ghoulish Gary and Critical Mass. More details on where you can purchase this and other official new Frightenstein merchandise coming soon!! This was originally printed in the Frightenstein Fest comic book for Frightenstein Fest 2005, organized by Stacey Case. The only difference is, for the shirt I had to replace Vincent Price with The Librarian.
July 2006
I've been invited to participate in the Living Dead Dolls Art Show. Over 100 artists were hand picked by doll creaters Damien Glonek and Ed Long, to give their own rendition designing Living Dead Dolls. This is a one of a kind show and so far there are no plans to mass produce the doll.
I've been working on the doll over the past couple of months, so please check back for pictures of the completed piece and of the actual event!
