Zombies scare me.
Always have - and Swampy of the '80's fought plenty but this Frank Cho shot just plain rocks.As I've stated, can't get enough of different artists interpretations - I like these clean lines - Bo and Scott Hampton did some similar work back in SAGA pre-Moore - two cool issues.
Funny though - some of the "Greats" of the industry couldn't get him quite right - George Perez, Dave Gibbons..
But it all goes back to that original look...
I always wondered what motivated Mr.Wrightson in creating that face - the missing nose, and the bridge down around the mouth - been lots of interesting variations on it (the best being Bissette and Tottleben) but it's just a cool look - it works.
Artists clearly enjoy interpreting the character.
Thanks for my "look", Berni.. |
I always assumed the flesh burned off and the plant followed the remaining bone. But now that you mention it - that doesn't really make sense (or his whole body'd look like that)..did he ever fight a vampire?
