Howdy there, Scream Freaks! Putrid polecats, is it almost Thanksgiving already?! Seems like Halloween was just yesterday, and it’s no wonder with the workload we’ve been under to prepare what promises to be a kick-ass season for Screaming Soup! next year. With our schedule so packed, we’re almost thinking we have no choice but to put the Graphic Headstone blog on the backburner . . . almost!
For now, we’re continuing to bring you fun and insightful interviews with some of today’s hottest talent bringing us the best in horror entertainment. This week, we present Jason Crosby, an out of this world artist who’s best know for his work on the more recent incarnations of Topps’ Mars Attacks trading cards! This was a lot of fun for us, because we LOVE trading cards. Yessir, from Rocky 3 to Dinosaurs Attack, we’ve collected our fair share of trading cards that span movies, TV, and comics. We hope to make our own Screaming Soup! trading cards one day, and maybe ole’ Jason will be our means of finally doing it. You think he’ll work for cheese sandwiches and a decent floor to sleep on?
So, without further yip yap from us, click HERE to read our interview with Jason Crosby and get a load of his official Topps Mars Attacks artwork, as well as work he’s done for cards sets of Star Wars, Marvel, and DC comics!

Howdy there, Scream Freaks! Wish we could say we’re taking it easy during the start of the holiday season, but being the web’s #1 animated horror host site keeps you pretty busy! In preparation for season 3, we’re compositing new backgrounds, drawing new characters, writing new reviews, making new contacts, etc., etc. And it’s all for you!
But we can’t keep reporting that same news every week, so we’re proud to bring back our answer to the hiatus between seasons, the Graphic Headstone! For those who don’t know, this is a blog used for spotlighting artists of all kinds we’ve been privileged enough to meet over the past year at conventions and over social media. We’re always seeking out artistic expressions that really speak to us on a creative level and think should be shared with a wider audience which we’re more than happy to help with. This week, we proudly add Ethan and Rachel Mongin from Pretty Weird Art to our list of Graphic Headstone interviews.
When we first met these two aaah!-rtists on the convention circuit, their art obviously pulled us in with its fun-inducing content and use of kinetically charged colors. Much to our pleasure, the maestros behind the work were just as wonderful to speak with. Ethan and Rachel understood their work and how to present it, knew how to interact with people, and made a lasting impression that gained them fans here at Screaming Soup! What also makes their story as independent artists on the rise unique is that they’re a husband and wife team who work on everything together from their comics to stand alone artwork which brings to mind such famous comic couples as Madman creator Mike Allred and his wife. Quite the inspiring team.
So, click HERE to read the interview, check out PrettyWeirdArt.blogspot.com that’s chock full of great art and characters that are sure to entertain, and find out what a Woose and a Skull Gun Bunny is!

Howdy there, Scream Freaks! Continuing our graphic celebration inspired by Free Comic Book Day at the beginning of the month, we turn our attention to reviewing a more obscure treasure where horror meets comics in “Cellar Dweller,” a page turning tale where a necronimicon knock-off is used for inspiration creating a comic and results in an awesome looking 80’s monster tearing through all walks of artists! Definitely worth a look see.
You’ll see us rummage through some really strange and unbelievable comics while reviewing this movie, and before you ask, they’re all real! Even the Fright comic with the weird moon butt plug cover. How crazy is that shit? What’s also real and crazy, but in every good way possible, is Bob Burden’s Flaming Carrot comics. Those stories are a great read from an amazingly talented guy who had a lot of influence on us and our brand of humor through the years. We highly recommend picking up back issues of that masterpiece however you can!
To follow up this marvelous sequential creature feature, have a read through our Graphic Headstone archives and check out our interviews with some of today’s comic book talents working on independent horrors to mainstream titles. I’m sure some of them wouldn’t mind saving time with a monster that just created work out of thin air!
Oh, we almost forgot to thank TommyNC2010 for his hilarious rap he did for us as the introduction to this month’s episode. An all around cool guy who can now add Screaming Soup! to along with his other accomplishments such as appearances on MTV and Comedy Central’s Tosh.0. Click HERE to check out his Youtube channel.

That’s pretty much it for now, so I’ll see ya’ later Scream Freaks!
Howdy there, Scream Freaks! St. Patrick’s Day is a blurry haze of a blacked out memory for most by now, but the after image of Warwick Davis’ sneering face continues to fester in my noggin after watching him in the annual Leprechaun marathons on TV. I don’t know when we’ll get around to reviewing this offbeat series that constantly reinvents itself with every movie installment, but a new Graphic Violence is long overdue and is perfect for expanding horror fan’s knowledge of the franchise. That’s right, this little guy dipped his deformed Irish toes into the inky waters of the comic book world a couple of times with stories that could be argued as either true to the genre jumping munchkin or a stupefying fail to horror fanatics everywhere! Just watch the newest Graphic Violence review below!
Other than that, be sure to catch up on all the latest Screaming Soup! episodes so far for season 2 and watch for an all new Screaming Soup! review coming 4/20/15.
