Book excerpt: 99 Creatures! 99 Horrors! 99 pages of Brooding Creatures--pages upon pages of monsters! This lovingly-delineated menagerie from the hand, pen, brush, and mind of artist (Swamp Thing, S.R. Bissette's Tyrant®, Taboo and more) and author (Cryptid Cinema, Studio of Screams, etc.) Stephen R. Bissette showcases all manner of things that go bump in the night, the dawn, the day, and the twilight. Here be monsters aplenty--werewolves, swampsters, demons, parasites, vampires, gorgons, shapeshifters, kaiju, aliens, occultists, jungle lords, raptors, deep-sea dwellers and stratospheric soarers--all these, and more than you can imagine lurk in these pages. The fusion of black-and-white illustration techniques (pencil, ink, wash) and splashes of color throughout make this sketchbook companion to Bissette's Thoughtful Creatures a feast for the fearless, nightmare fuel for the timid. From saber-toothed cats to amphibious gillmen, embracing folkloric figures like the Hog of the Forsaken as well as the symbiotic socket-dwelling Bloodless Gheebie, Brooding Creatures harbors familiar fears (from popular comicbooks and TV series) alongside domestic demons (and demon-hunters), just a page-turn away from foreign devils (like Wampus and Varney) and never-before-seen-or-heard-of critters (Cockatrice! Sporz! Umbilicus! She-Yolk!). 99 pages in black-and-white and color, designed by graphic novelist/author Mark Masztal, foreword by award-winning sf/fantasy artist Bob Eggleton, color cover art by Bissette and Eisner-Award winning graphic novelist/author John Jennings (their first collaboration, but not their last!).
