This may be the coolest thing on the net right now: The Shape of Water Trailer as a 50’s Horror Movie!

If you’re a fan of fanzines, then you’ve got to check out Ken Meyer, Jr.’s monthly column Ink Stains. Each month Ken (who is an amazing artist) posts… well, let’s let Ken explain…
I have a collection of over 200 fanzines from the 60’s-80’s that I plan to scan and talk about, one at a time. I hope to have some of the participants answer a few questions. Many of those participants are established comics professionals now, while some have gone on to other things. I will show a few snippets from each zine and give you a link to download a pdf of the whole thing, which I hope all of you will do!
These two Steranko pieces appeared with other art by Steranko, Frank Frazetta, Berni Wrightson, Michael Kaluta, Steve Hickman, Kenneth Smith and others in Spa Fon 5 (Ink Stains #100).
As always, thanks to Ken for bringing back great memories of fandom!

Check out Chris’ site when you have some time to spare. You’ll be amazed at his talent!
Rocky was my first Chris Visions commission. I hope it won’t be my last.

That’s just one of the first issue covers to Hard Case Crime / Titan Comics new Mike Hammer comic series. Based on an unproduced Mike Hammer screenplay written by Spillane, “The Night I Died,” will be adapted by Max Allan Collins with art by Marcelo Salaza and colorist Marcio Freire.

Although the poster for What Still Remains is pretty weak, the trailer is interesting.

I love this Frankenstein and his Bride commission by Eduardo Risso. You can see (and your should) a much larger version at The Bristol Board.

So, how do you like the poster and trailer for The Outsider?

In celebration of Action Comics reaching it’s 1000th issue, DC Comics is releasing it as a super-size issue with several variant covers. Steve Rude’s cover above represents Superman from the 1930’s. Other artists and decades represented include:
