Pete Von Sholly's "Morbid" represents a breakthrough -- a visually exciting and vastly entertaining new genre created by an artistic comic genius. Like all true innovations, you may easily overlook it by assigning it to an existing category out of hand. But you would be missing something extraordinary. Von Sholly is a wry magician, a sarcastic alchemist who stirs together classic comics, Italian fumetti, Hollywood B-movies, Ray Harryhausen dinosaurs, HP Lovecraft horror tales, Gaines Cryptkeepers, and transmutes them into something new and different. You'll see an artful stew of living dead, gigantic babes in bikinis, retro classic films, the three-eyed evil scientist who shrinks his enemies to the size of their intellects (two inches), Captain Harry Hauser, and the irrepressible Tuxford Noodlefactor. Sea serpents, giant insects, aliens, you name it -- Von Sholly does them all with skill and panache. When he's not dreaming up this stuff -- and realizing it beautifully in his cyber-photoshop world -- Von Sholly is a Hollywood storyboard artist who has created the visuals for such films as "Green Mile," "Cat in the Hat," and the current episode of "Chucky the evil doll." At this moment, I understand, (March 2004) he's with the "Chucky" film crew in Romania -- where he's also shooting digital pictures of old graveyeards and castles to use in his next issue of "Morbid." This is a don't miss -- and an instant classic collectible!
