I discovered this fantastic illustrator/graphic designer and his books at WonderCon 2022. Now you can discover him yourself!The creator's description:It has been many moons since anyone has laid eyes upon the ancient comic tome known to a special few as GUNK, the bastard creation of the mad artist, Curt Merlo. But finally, after much anticipation, the first ever reprinting of the 2018 occult classic comic zine is among us! Those who experienced the original book recall it as an inky exploration into the bizarre world of pulpy vintage horror and strange romance but they did not live long after such verbosities. I myself, dare not attempt an explanation of said relic. It is best to leave understanding to your own eyes. Now, focus beyond this material plane and into the graveyard of forgotten books and you may be lucky enough to witness the specter of the aforementioned monstrosity that is GUNK: Volume 1. Behold!Curt Merlo has provided covers and illustrations to publications such as: Wired, The Washington Post, Bloomberg Businessweek, The Guardian, The Observer, Scientific American, Ebony, The Nation, The Boston Globe, ProPublica, The Village Voice, LA Weekly, Seattle Weekly, The Hollywood Reporter, Little White Lies, as well as his monthly contribution to the Indianapolis Monthly "The Beat" Column.Curt has been publishing books since 2013 under his publishing company Saboteur Press. Curt's work has also appeared on album covers, Theater posters, and in movies.
