There’s a time for 976-EVIL and there’s a time for 976-EVIL II…and it’s important to know the difference.

This WAS after I ordered! It's in the bread narrative!

To be clear, I will eat both. Gladly. Enthusiastically.

Also, if you're wondering why I know so much about bread, allow me to tell you about growing up around the presence of old Italians.

If your menu says ciabatta, but you bring me focaccia, I will notice! These are not the same! There's a difference in structural integrity! One is from ancient Rome! The other was created in the 80s as a response to baguettes! Both are powerful and tasty, but some sandwiches can only support one!

I read ZOMBIE SPACESHIP WASTELAND just last year...and this particular chapter stuck with me. It's definitely required reading for anyone in a creative space who has been met with...unfavorable...exhibition circumstances.

During a romantic camping trip, Adam spots a zombie near the cabin. His friends: “You’re just stressed.”
The zombie: follows him back to L.A.
The result: one man’s fight to keep control of his horror movie—and his sanity.

Working for Fango is literally a childhood and lifelong dream fulfilled. I am especially honored to be here for this incarnation under our EIC @philnobilejr.bsky.social who I witnessed taking the mag in a direction I deeply wanted to be a part of.

It's always an honor to be able to contribute to the pages of Fangoria, especially when I get to be listed alongside such amazing individuals. I was thrilled to sit down with icon Ernest Dickerson for TWO separate interviews regarding the anniversary of DEMON KNIGHT and his work on DAY OF THE DEAD!
