Praise for Richard Corben:

“He is the mainstay in my collection of original art and one of the most precise and admirable storytellers in the medium.”—Guillermo del Toro

“Horror fans need to add this one to their collection.”—Newsarama

“Richard Corben’s art, which earned him a place in the Will Eisner Award Hall of Fame last year, is masterful. He brings his Heavy Metal aesthetic, honed through years of Eerie and Creepy, and creates something that is both entirely and unmistakably his own.”—Behind the Panels
