Just stumbled across this funny feature on Fangoria's website...

Dark Horse has announced CREEPY COMICS #1 will be out this July 15th. I've been writing a twisted little three-part story which will run through the first few issues titled, THE CURSE. Jason Shawn Alexander is supplying painted artwork... Eric Powell is painting the cover... and check out the rest of the incredible artist lineup!

I'm very excited to get this out there. This book is going to be gorgeous.

From DarkHorse.com:

What's black and white and clawing its way onto your reading list? It's the newly resurrected Creepy, of course! Now, don't fret, my putrid pets -- these new terror tales are cut from the same cursed cloth as the outlandish originals, telling contemporary horror stories with gorgeously ghoulish art from a lineup that'll make you lose your head! Original Creepy artist Angelo Torres teams up with devilish Dan Braun on "Hell Hound Blues"; Michael Woods and artist Saskia Gutekunst serve up a dose of "Chemical 13"; Neil Kleid and Brian Churilla provide "All the Help You Need" at a weird weight-loss camp; and jaundiced Jason Shawn Alexander brings his phenomenal painting skills to Joe Harris's "The Curse"! Plus Bernie Wrightson, the return of "Loathsome Lore," and more. All this, plus one classic story from Uncle Creepy's dank dungeon, and you've got 48 freakish pages of terror to bring home to mummy!

We've moved my short films, trailers and other clips to Vimeo... beautiful hosting all around. Check 'em out, if you have a second.

WITCHWISE is looking particularly spiffy with a new transfer.

IGN has a 5-page preview up as of yesterday. The book comes out this Wednesday, 4/1.

Check it out!
