A Comix Bestiary of Cryptids


Fantagraphics Books has just published BEASTS!, a 200-page magnificent bestiary of mythological and cryptozoological critters imagined by more than one hundred edgy artists, cartoonists, and illustrators including the amazing Sam Weber. The BEASTS! menagerie includes Bigfoot and Nessie, proto-cryptids like the Gorgon and Golem, and also dozens of monsters you've probably never met before like the Japanese Gaki, French Melusine, and the human-eating Odontotyrannus of the Ganges River. Absolutely magnificent.

The header of the post is a combinaison that I made out of 2 illustrations done by the talented and amazing Sam Weber.

Ouais, ça l'air malade ce livre !!

En passant, j'ai utilisé ton header pour faire un "bouton" sur mon blog.

Dis-moi si c'est ok !
