C. Spaulding Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I'm extremely excited about winning the 6.5. I've been waiting for the right copy for quite a while now and couldn't pass this up. Maybe this will be the comic that gets me motivated to update my registry with my GA horror books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrightson fan Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I know that this a piece of art, but it still most definitely CSS22 related as you can see. This is the third piece that I have had commissioned. The first was by Bill Sienkiewcz, the second by our own Karl Janot, and now the third one by John K Snyder III. I approached John a little over a month ago and told him of my general theme, which interested him a great deal as he loved Craig's original as well. Long story short, John read my mind and created for me a perfect piece, in his own style, which pays homage to several of my favorite things. These things, in no particular order would be, CSS22, the film The Shining, Colorado (where I live) and The Stanley Hotel (located in Estes Park, CO) Steven King's inspiration for The Shining. John came up with the idea and did not want the man and female victim to be Jack and Wendy from the film, but to be another horrible story from the Overlook Hotel's past. He thought a look from the 30's would be appropriate, which is reflected in the man's tuxedo and the victim's dress and art deco earrings. The carpet pattern is the exact pattern from the film, and John liked and utilized my suggestion to make the ax look like the fireman's style Jack and Grady used to do their damage. John said that he had a blast doing it, and I think it is apparent by the finished piece. He presented it to me at the Denver Con this past Saturday. He has made me very happy as you can imagine. I feel that my meager photography cannot do it justice. Please let me know what you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
