I'm talking about Frank Frazetta and Alex Ross. Recently, I came across this beautiful rendition of my buddy the Wolf Man vs. Drac. I had once thought this to be a cover on an old CREEPY magazine, but I was wrong. The background is pretty much the coolest thing on the very cool cover. But it is Everyman fighting Count Dubya. Sadly, Everyman loses, then Bush gets his strength back by sucking on our individual liberties, courtesy of Alex Ross, who also provides the touching closure, with the Count embracing one of his lovely brides. This may not be a great post, people, but you gotta admit, the art is fantastic. Wayne

Hail Alex Ross!!!

The annual Halloween mob at Pat and Bill Hanavan's aren't big genre (or Voice) readers, but lots of "wows" at Ross' painting. And if he ever needs a Clint Barton...
