He drew different stories in different styles, and the only thing they seemed to have in common was that they were beautiful. -Neil Gaiman

Happy Horny Werewolf Day 2012. Yeah. Not Gonna Let Go of This Tradition Anytime Soon

Posted by mistergroonk in Artist, Holiday, LOL on February 14, 2012

And now here’s the day as we’ve come to call it since 2007, 2008 and 2011. 2010 could fuck right off, apparently.

Always remember: Valentine’s Day is a Christian corruption of a pagan festival involving werewolves, blood and fucking. So wish people a happy Horny Werewolf Day and see what happens.
Warren Ellis, BAD SIGNAL 02-14-2007

All of the following (cards and teddy bear) are buyable from CafePress. Good luck having them delivered on time. maybe next year, yes?

It’s Christmas Eve, Boys and Girls. Be Good or the Krampus Will Whip You.

Posted by mistergroonk in Art, Artist, History, Holiday on December 24, 2011

Twitterer @RonSalas retweeted an old Christmas card @CalamityJon created a few years ago.

The Krampus is an old myth that the Venture Brothers introduced us to a few years ago. Take a walk through YouTube and you’ll find tons of contemporary parade and Traditional Krampus videos all up in there.

Now imagine our surprise when we learned obscure mythologist writer most extraordinary, Neil Gaiman, did not know of the Krampus.

We’re still reeling from this revelation. Reality as we know it may never recover.
