I had the idea for this gag after engaging in a "Jimmies vs. Sprinkles" discussion on Facebook. I had considered that it might make for an interesting strip, then REconsidered it, because it's just an endless debate topic and I didn't want to invite drama. THEN I thought about a bunch of the OTHER strip ideas I've rejected in the past because of my desire to avoid drama, and this strip began to form in my mind.

The "Tales from the Crypt" inserts were a last-minute change, as the original script and roughs had me just narrating the idea normally. But the visual was too much fun to NOT draw.

Tales From the Crypt #33, cover art by Jack Davis

Happy Hallowe'en, my ghouls. This here's a nod to a great Jack Davis cover for Tales From the Crypt from days of yore. Davis is definitely one of my favorite cartoonists. @eccomics #ECcomics #jackdavis #talesfromthecrypt #inktober #werewolf #readmorecomics #ink #inkart #brushwork #horror #horrorart https://www.instagram.com/p/CkYY0WiuW4s/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Creepshow (2019) Tv Series I decided that as I watch through the episodes of Creepshow to give some small opinions and my takes on the episodes! Episode 1A - Gray Matter For the start of this series it isn’t too bad. The actors where fine, besides Tobin Bell who I find always kinda hams up his performances. All in all it was an enjoyable story with some cool effects. Although the ending seemed a little unnecessary and abrupt. Episode 1B - House of the Head I really like the premise of this episode but it has its share of shortcomings. The child actor was not very good, the practical effects of of the larger head looked a little cheesy and a few small nitpicks things. I feel like this story could have been told better as a full episode and maybe the head began affecting the girls family or her parents begin to start seeing strange unexplainable things. Overall the start of this series was okay. I thought it would have a stronger start but as the show has 3 seasons there must be some quality writing that pops up as the episodes go on, looking forward to the next set of short horror! Let me know your thoughts on the episode below! Or tell me about other anthology shows/movies you enjoy! • • • #creepshow #stephenking #tv #show #horror #horrortv #monster #spooky #scary #creepy #anthology #shortfilm #review #tvshow #horrorfan #horrorjunkie #cinephile #talesfromthecrypt https://www.instagram.com/p/CgDpjtQMPB4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
