I’ve been wanting an edition with the Bernie Wrightson illustrations for quite some time. This new copy popped up on Abe Books last week and I pounced. Looking forward to it!

This movie has been sitting at the front of my mind for almost a week. It’s gotten me to break out my copy of the original novel illustrated by Bernie Wrightson so I can finally read the damn book…

Len Wein delighted in telling the stories of sitting with Dave & Dave’s sketchbook, developing the characters that became the New X-men. Dave hated Wolverine’s cowl and designed the sweeping wings. Len and Bernie Wrightson were signing at Loscon when we learned Dave had died. It was a very sad day.
Today is the birthday of artist Dave Cockrum (Nov. 11, 1943-Nov. 26, 2006). Creator or cocreator of Storm, Nightcrawler, Colossus, Thunderbird, Wildfire, Mystique, the Starjammers, the Imperial Guard, Magik, & much more!

Guillermo del Toro mentioned he wanted to stage a scene from the novel in his new Frankenstein movie that has never been filmed before. Here are three versions of the scene by Lynd Ward (1934), Bernie Wrightson (1983), and Nino Carbe(1990). Each offers a different interpretation.

While I am grateful of Guillermo del Toro for referencing and acknowledging his debt to Wrightson, Bernie's illustrations will always be something separate, special, and personal in my eyes.

I keep thinking about the rotten spine impression on the back of Elordi’s Creature’s coat. Pure Bernie Wrightson and Kelley Jones visual.

Screaming, crying, throwing up over Frankenstein. As soon as I got to my drink and draw I had to sketch this good pure moment. Del Toro CRUSHED IT! A good adaptation and some good nods to the original films AND to Bernie Wrightson. I might do a more finished version of this.

I always associate this image with Keith Wrightson, as it's used as the cover for his brilliant book 'Earthly Necessities'.
Studies of his six servants in the 1750s: masterful oil sketch by William Hogarth, who was born on this day in 1697.

Finally was able to see Frankenstein. I really liked it. It isn’t the book but somehow is the amalgam of *all* Frankensteins. Shades of Shelley, Whale, Hammer, Branagh. Wrightson and Grimly are in there. It reminded me of the Fisher-Price Marvel comic adaptation I was obsessed with as a kid.

There is a lot of pathos and sympathy for The Monster in the story. Shelley initially depicts him as gentle and innocent until he is rejected and abandoned. Mary Shelley's novel is really the first published SF book with similarities to various times, like the present.

Besonders viel Laune bereitete es mir damals natürlich, Portraits der drei Horror-Ikonen Stephen King, George A. Romero und Bernie Wrightson für den Tagesspiegel zu zeichnen. Das waren Zeiten!
