Not much to say. Tired. Hungry. Much like angry mummy.

Whooooo….

Nothing’s quite as frightening, however, as watching my drunk 47 year old, married brother try to pick up an 18 year old waitress at a sports bar. It was a special day.

Back to Lego Batman with me… er… I mean, reading a book.

Zombies

Gotta get this one done early, or it won’t get done today. I drew this one a while ago. Kind of experimental. I had just bought a big-ass funky marker, and just wanted to do something huge, crazy and sloppy with it. This was the result.

Just woke up. Nothing new to gripe about.

Nosferatu

A little late, was having dinner with my parents. Anyhoo.

Unless their name is Dracula, and they’re played by Gary Oldman or Bela Lugosi, attractive charming vampires can blow it out their ass. I love vampires as freakish, dirty, messy, sloppy motherfuckers who are, y’know, actually frightening. As much as I hate Steve Niles’ work, at least he had the decency to take that direction with 30 Days of way too fucking much hackery. However, with the popularity of crap like Twilight (the trailer to the movie looks fucking terrible, and I found out that my 13 year old nephew is obsessed with it – it has be shitty), it looks like pretty, vapid, toothless vampires ain’t goin’ away anytime soon.

So I based this nasty motherfucker on Orlok from the film Nosferatu, originally played by actor Max Schreck (also the name of Christopher Walken’s character in Batman Returns. Schreck himself would be portrayed – kinda – by Willem Dafoe in the criminally underrated Shadow of the Vampire). I decided to give this guy the leech/sucker tongue thing… just because.

My brother’s visiting tomorrow. I love him, wanna see him, but it really kinda fucks up my plans for Saturday (reading a book). I’ll just have to power-read through it on Sunday.

See ya.

Jason Vorhees

Another “reimagining”. Though, as I’ve said, I’ve never seen a Friday the 13th movie, I always imagined Jason as a giant retarded mutant baby. With a machete. So I drew him that way (hence the unmasked head shot).

Watched I, Madman last night. Not a very good movie, but I kept thinking that I recognized every single actor and actress in it from other things. Turns I only recognized one guy, who was in a very short-lived but pretty damn good show called G vs. E. He played Chandler Smythe.

Gas is below 3 dollars a gallon. If this is what happens when the economy collapses, I wish it would collapse every week. This just further fuels (get it?) my theory that people like me (poor) actually benefit when the world goes belly-up.

MaƱana.
