Half Zombie/Half Mummy


Originally, this was supposed to go into the next issue of Phase Magazine. But due to stress/block/madness I was unable to get more work developed around their theme of "Play". They were more than cool about it and I hope to be able to properly contribute to the next issue.

This piece is a riff on a bunch of drawings I did when I was about five. I combined movie monsters by splitting them down the middle. If a zombie is scary, and a mummy is scary, well then... clearly the two combined would be twice as scary.

I also have a piece in Oddica #4. It's the "School Picture" piece that was designed as a back-up for them in case my schedule got too hectic. Sure enough... it did. But I feel like I'm on a roll again and will hopefully have more to share soon.

I would love to find out if you being five was around the time the "chocolate/vanilla twist cone" was invented, or if perhaps you had simply seen one too many Reese's commercials.

"You've got vampire in my werewolf!"

"You've got werewolf in my vampire!"

Etc.

Oh the twist cone, beloved treat of my youth. But I think it and the Reese's campaign predate me.

It was because the Fargo Public Library had all of these crazy books on movie monsters that I would get from the bookmobile each week. I'd check those out plus cartoon collections by Charles Addams and Gahan Wilson over and over again.
