Farel…

Farel Darymple has been posting more images on his blog lately. Like this one…

Pretty face melting stuff.

Dalrymple recently finished up a 10-issue Omega the Unknown series at Marvel with novelist Jonathan Lethem, colored by Paul Hornschemeier. Wikipedia says he’s currently working on Pop Gun War Vol. 2, which if true is very cool news.

Fears of the Dark Trailer

Go take a gander at the Fears of the Dark trailer over at Apple. Fears of the Dark is an anthology style animated horror movie directed by six different graphic artists—including Charles Burns of Black Hole fame. From what I can tell, Burns’ segment involves giant preying mantis. Awesome.

The animation is obviously based on Burns’ own artwork and is just fantastic. Check out a still from the Burns directed segment below.
