Sketchy drawing of Steve West, from the movie The Incredible Melting Man. Mister West is shown in his advancing stage of meltdown, one eye hanging loose, an ear flaking off, flesh and blood oozing down his body, pools of red glop trailing on the ground behind him. This delightful image was drawn on an index card.

Rest in peace to the great Ace Frehley, whose incredibly influential work with KISS was many a horror fan’s gateway to the dark, strange and theatrical. We send our condolences to the entire KISS Army, as well as to Space Ace’s family and friends in this galaxy and beyond.

The 2000 Man has exited, stage left. RIP to the original KISS guitarist, Space Ace Frehley.

The song I always associate with him was the KISS cover of the Rolling Stones' "2000 Man."

Ace Frehley of KISS playing guitar. Another Ace while playing guitar. This one shows multiple versions kinda like echoes as he's shredding and head banging.
