no fear of the Dark

Good guys are boring, villains aren't. That is why horror will always prevail. In real life we all want to meet nice people, people we can trust.

Safe.

Those are the ones we marry and hope to get as co-workers.

But still both sexes go for the bad boys or girls. To feel unsafe, alive, for a dare.

Horror comics don't lie to you the are about baser instincts and about truth veiled in social interaction and small talk. It has no reason for political correctness or respecting you, your friends or your enemies.

Death is unavoidable, pain is part of life and bad things happen.

But why would someone want to read about these things even more? If you ask that seriously, go somewhere else to grow up as a human.

Those of us enamored by horror know the allure. We are not adrenaline junkies as such but we like our fear.

We have understood that we are not the top of the foodchain nor pinnacle of creation. The world is not fair or safe. And it never, ever, will be. Horror tells us that but it shows both sides of the coin.
There is quote I vaguely remember saying how Stephen King "tells about most awful world where bad things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people"

And horror comics have one advantage: there is absolutely NO limit how over the top you can take it.
Want to blow up australia? sure. Have a team of flying were-hogs hunt your sadistic vampirekilling necromancer assassin? there you go. Zombie apocalypses of biblical proportions? Why thank you, dont mind if I do.

Yes, as a most writer I get the "easy" chores, that is thinking up twisted things as much as I can and hope that the artist is up for the challenge.
After all it is his/her talents that significantly make or break the entire thing.
I am a guy who follows the writers but even the best of them would be in trouble if their visions were finalized by autistic chimpanzees.

If someone would ask what current horror comics one should read I would tell them(heck, usually I just rant before they have time to run away) these:



















































The Walking Dead -by Robert Kirkman and Charlie Adlard
The Crossed - by Garth Ennis and Jacen Burrows
Locke & Key - Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez
Hellboy- by Mike Mignola et al
B.P.R.D - by Mike Mignola and Guy Davis
Hack/slash- by Tim Seeley et al

is that all? No.

There is loads of vibrant hungry beasts out there, from the great The Living Corpse to Jesus hates Zombies.

there are dark overlords after your hearts and minds and just you wait :I am applying to their ranks.

So, within few weeks on here I plan to have zombies, vampires, supernatural assassins, demons, slashers and other fun.
Pack your bags as I plan to go to war on the balkans, hunt for artefacts and lost places on europe and tear up american soil.

Some drawn by yours truly, hopefully most by people who actually know what they do.
And if any of you are fluent in drawing buxom final girls but is stuck on a storyline...in your service.
