Two years ago, over brunch, Guillermo del Toro told me he was dedicating his Frankenstein film to Bernie Wrightson. He knew I had known Bernie for many years and that we had worked together. It’s lovely to see him mentioned in this Vanity Fair article. @realgdt.bsky.social @beehivebooks.bsky.social

Thank you for the support, @realgdt.bsky.social! It's a privilege to have you involved with this glorious book.

Friends—don’t pass up Das Pastoras’ beautiful WONDER BOOK from @beehivebooks.bsky.social on Kickstarter: www.kickstarter.com/projects/bee...

This looks absolutely beautiful. A gift for any Greek Mythology lovers.

Thank you Diego Higera! Read all about the background of this project! It features some unseen preview images. www.comicsbeat.com/interview-pr... @beehivebooks.bsky.social

Today on SOLRAD, we feature an Exclusive Excerpt: A WONDER BOOK FOR GIRLS AND BOYS by Nathaniel Hawthorne, illustrated by Das Pastoras -- currently crowdfunding via @beehivebooks.bsky.social solrad.co/exclusive-ex...

Hawthorne reimagined King Midas as a foolish father of a girl named Marygold, who learns too late that some things are worth more than gold. Ray Harryhausen adapted it in The Story of King Midas (1953). @realgdt.bsky.social New edition available: kickstarter.com/projects/beehivebooks/wonder-book

My favorite screen adaptation of the Greek myths isn’t one of the big-budget movies. It’s a four-episode TV series: The Storyteller: Greek Myths from the Jim Henson Company. On the right, Das Pastoras’s take on Medusa from kickstarter.com/projects/beehivebooks/wonder-book @realgdt.bsky.social

Kind words of wisdom from the great @larsenproject.bsky.social.

The great Guillermo Del Toro has agreed to sign all our limited editions of A WONDER BOOK! As of now, our numbered & lettered versions of the book will include autographs from Das Pastoras & @realgdt.bsky.social, those two masters of monsters. Help us bring these myths to life. Link below!

Frank Quitely also endorsed this great project!

@realgdt.bsky.social said it best! If you like Corben and Moebius, you’ll love Das Pastoras!

Yes, I was the colorists of the first graphic novel adaptation, working with my dear Orpheus Collar, who later took over the series as its main artist!
