Bernie Wrightson needs no introduction. He is the true 'Master of the Macabre' in all mediums, from Frankenstein to Swamp Thing and far, far beyond. It's been nearly 30 years since Bernie let his imagination run wild while creating close to 150 new paintings for his two trading card series. He took two years out of his busy schedule to craft this once-in-a-lifetime body of work, and he was given free rein to explore whatever ideas he wanted, so every single image emerged directly from Bernie's vibrant imagination. Until now, none of these paintings have been reproduced in book form, and this book will contain all of them! Utilizing museum quality transparencies that were shot as the paintings arrived at the FPG offices, these works will be reproduced in spectacular vivid colors, just the way they looked when Bernie first brought them to life. In addition to the original text he wrote for each piece, the untold history of the two trading card series will be included, with production notes and details from behind the scenes. This large and comprehensive 200-page hardcover collection measures 9' x 11' and is a real trip through Bernie's signature world of horror. A book that gathers all of these wonderful paintings together is long overdue,
