Crazy awesome artist Hatboy, had combined something truly awesome.  Tim Burton gothic style art and Pokemon.  Luckily, this guy is from my generation and he seems to be using the first 150 as his content material.  As you can see from above, he takes a popular Pokemon type and redraws them with Tim Burton trademark creepy features and distinct art style...I can't seem to find another word for it besides gothic and I keep wanting to use Corpse Bridey/Nightmare Before Christmasy.

Please Don’t Put Humpty Together Again

Posted in Books, Reviews, tagged , , , , , , , on July 28, 2012 | 5 Comments »

   

     Billy Majestic’s arresting Graphic Novel, Humpty Dumpty is a Science Fiction/Horror yarn and definitely not recommended for children.

     Vivid colours and smooth digital blending achieve a film-like look; entirely appropriate for a snappy origin tale which plays like a movie storyboard and makes no qualms about its B-Movie intentions.

     Redneck grotesques, small-town cops and ethereal aliens provide familiarity whilst the titular Humpty is an atrocity to remind you of the heyday of direct-to-video prosthetic horrors.  Humpty’s conception and birth stray into uncomfortable exploitation territory but once the monster madness is underway sequels seem both likely and gory good fun.

“Amid a Sea of Eyes” ~ The Adventuress by Audrey Niffenegger

Posted in Books, Reviews, tagged , , , , , , , on July 8, 2012 | 9 Comments »

     Audrey Niffenegger, best known as the author of The Time Traveler’s Wife, spins a macabre yet enchanting novel in pictures.

     The Adventuress, an ethereal yet tenacious heroine, is created by an alchemist, has a love affair with Napoleon and gives birth to a cat in a quest of Fairy Tale subversions and surreal post-feminism.

     The text may tell us of wedding revelry and honeymoons but the fragile images betray subjugation and abuse as The Adventuress is repeatedly betrayed by the promises of love and motherhood.  This is a story in which transformation can lead to madness and happy-ever-afters may only be attained through cleansing fire or the release of death.

     Niffenegger’s images combine the uncanny distortions of German Expressionist cinema with  a sketchiness which invites universal interpretations.

     A truly beautiful, unique and inspiring work.

Access Denied!

Posted in Books, Reviews, tagged , , , , , , , on June 13, 2012 | 4 Comments »

     Pat Brien’s Denied is a refreshingly old-school vampire yarn that owes more to Hammer era Dracula than Meyer style teen romance (cheer or boo here as you prefer).

     
     Brien does an admirable job of honing and reinvigorating Gothic folklore by finding ingenious and refreshing ways to reconnect disparate vampire archetypes.
   
      Monstrous Nosferatu and brooding immortals share an intriguing new evolution and the inclusion of werewolves takes the tale to new levels of adventure, mystery and page-turning excitement.
   
     The novel has two distinct parts, the first acting as an extended prologue, quite different in tone and location to the latter.  It’s a bold structural move as readers may prefer one part of the book over the other, but Brien’s commitment, the brisk pace and engaging characters cover any cracks.  A sequel is surely essential.

Here is one more She-Fool I found made by Stephanie Pui-Mun Law. I like that there is a fox instead of a dog, and the symbolism of the three monkeys is very nice. You can see the whole Shadowscapes deck here.
