New commission: a Muppet version of TWIN PEAKS, Season 1! Mixed media on 11 X 14" hot press watercolor paper. #MuppetMonday

I've been rewatching TWIN PEAKS seasons 1 & 2. The episodes without Lynch involvement remind me of the time in 1977 when United Features Syndicate thought about using Al Plastino instead of Charles Schulz on PEANUTS.

Does anyone know where this cover is from? It's coming up for auction on Heritage. I occasionally like to pick up pieces like this and do restoration work on the missing logo elements. The "Vandercook" labels on the bottom lead me to think it's a Charlton but I really don't know.

Tor Johnson was born on this day in 1903! Back in '91 I illustrated a book written by John Wooley called TOR JOHNSON, HOLLYWOOD STAR for Fantagraphics' Monster Comics imprint. It was a biocomic; the left side pages were true, and the right side were imaginary. The 90s were...unique.

Don Heck captures my general vibe.

To further the "copyright growing pains" analogy, fascism is like a new pair of pants: uncomfortable at first, but once you goose step around in them, they fit much better.

R.I.P. Drew Struzan. I based my Muppet version of BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA off his poster art "with apologies to Struzan." Thanks for all your many inspiring works, Drew.

I rewatched two of my favorite films, THE GRADUATE and McCABE & MRS. MILLER. I'm always curious how much I'd enjoy Graduate without the Simon and Garfunkel, or McCabe without the Leonard Cohen. I wonder how many other successful films have song soundtracks by a single artist?

I feel like DEATH TAKES A HOLIDAY and DEATH PAUSES FOR MICKEY MOUSE would be a fun double feature.

My Muppet version of MACBETH was commissioned by Dream Role Players as a gift for their director. They sent me a pic of her reaction, which has really made my day.
