    Terrific illos, one and all. Can't wait for his Alan Moore collaboration "The Moon and Serpent Bumper Book of Magic."

    Coulthart is a genius. His depiction of R'lyeh is probably the most alienating, bizarre version I've ever seen--therefore, the most true to Lovecraft's vision of the place.

    Art like this, and many thousands of great artists' work as well, might really be humanity's greatest talent and greatest legacy.

    @burlybax: Considering how in The Mountains of Madness, the protagonist gleans all of his information of the ancient Arctic civilization from their art, I find this statement quite appropriate.

    It goes without saying that this work is so way beyond that lousy He-Man hipster shit with the crappy fore-shortening. This takes true skill & vision.

    He just gave black metal about 50 years worth of album covers.

    Stunning. Just stunning.

    He has the minute detail of Dore, and the dark fantasmagoria of H.R. Giger. The latter of whom I thought was the only artist who could get close to the visions of Lovecraft. I stand corrected.
