My MAD Magazine art!


 I was contacted by an art director from MAD to see if I'd be interested in creating and illustration for them. My reply was, "let me think about that for a second... um, YES!" Ironically they were doing a parody of the classic Famous Monsters of Filmland mag and wanted to spotlight some of the "real" monsters of Hollywood. They wanted to have a Basil Gogos vibe on Mr. Cosby and this is what I came up with.
They had me put ol' Harvey in the upper corner and the creepy mascot character.
And this is how the layout ran in the mag. Pretty great layout and hilarious writing!

More Famous Monster's covers


For the 200th anniversary of Dracula and my last cover done for Famous Monsters as they no longer put out a monthly magazine.
Issue celebrating the amazing actor, Doug Jones!

My Ghostbusters cover. I wanted to spotlight Egon, as actor Harold Ramis had recently passed. He's tempting the demon dogs with the infamous Twinkie!
Game of Thrones spotlighting the Mother of Dragons. (my wife helped by being my model for her pose).
Mad Max tribute cover!
My Lost In Space cover with my original Dr. Smith face that I had to change in the 11th hour.
Force Awakens!
Flash Gordon. There were lots of changes and last minute additions but was really happy with the outcome.
Bruce Campbell tribute cover. Hail to the King, baby!
