Raiga

"Raiga: God of the Monsters" is a 2009 Japanese movie about the giant monster (kaiju) Raiga. It was written and directed by Shinpei Hayashiya, who kindly permitted Blood Scream Comics to make an issue based on the kaiju. The resulting comic book, with the cover shown here, was a labor of giant monster love edited by Matthew Brassfield, written by Juliet Fromholt, and with the cover colored by Jason Gilmore. I did the drawing and interior art. This was a fun project, and should you purchase a copy at the website www.bloodscreamcomics.com, I hope you will have as much fun reading it as we did in producing it. You can read it with a clear conscience since no major cities were harmed in the making of this comic book. 

The Curse of the Beast

Matthew Brassfield, editor of Blood Scream comics, is a devoted fan of the late Spanish movie actor, writer, director and icon Paul Naschy. So one day Matt asked if I might like to do a two-issue comic book adaptation closely based on a Paul Naschy werewolf film. The film has been released all over the world under many different titles, so Matt chose "The Curse of the Beast" for our tribute. Jason Gilmore  created the creepy and colorful covers for both issues. If you'd care to see a few samples of my black and white interior illustrations or to purchase copies of this or any Blood Scream title, then you should go to bloodscreamcomics.com. 

Eternal Sleep

This was a fun project. It's a comic book based on an unfinished Independent B Movie film about Dracula that was written and directed by Josh Weinberg. The writing credit for the comic book lists Mr. Weinberg, Matt Brassfield and myself. Juliet Fromholt did the print formatting and the cover lettering and colors were done by Jason Gilmore. And, if you didn't already suspect, I did the artwork. Not only was this a fun project to do, but I think it's also a pretty fun read. If you'd like to judge for yourself, you can either pick up a copy at any of the finer comic book shops or order the title online at www.bloodscreamcomics.com.

Get Out the Vote

Blood Scream Comics has published three tryout titles simultaneously, namely "Scars," "The Sadness" and "Farmer Joe." With the eerie editing of Matthew Brassfield and Jeremy Hoyt, the weird writing of Stephen Alexander, Jr., Jason Gilmore and Juliet Fromholt and the alarming art of Jason Gilmore, Theresa Lopez and me, you know you're in for an entertaining and spine-tingling read. What's particularly interesting is that you can vote for which title you'd like to see become a continuing series! You can register by following the instructions on the inside front cover of each title. So go to your local comic book shop in your precinct (or shop at bloodscreamcomics.com), buy all three books and after enjoying their creepy campaign pamphlets, vote for the crazed candidate of your choice. Make America gasp again!
