If you love monsters, this is our love letter to monsters of all kinds!
I love monsters because they can represent ANYTHING. They can represent people, places, things, or ideas. You can use them to tell a deep story or a fun one. I love Monsters Inc as much as I love Hellraiser, and I wanted to curate and anthology that showed my love of all types of monsters.
This book isn’t just about monsters, though. It’s also about the creators who worked on this book. I have a list of hundreds of creators I would love to work with in my career, and before this anthology existed collaborating with all of them would have been impossible.
However, in an anthology I can work with a bunch of awesome creators at once. I can compile a team of 46 creators that have been on my bucket list and bring them together for one jam session.
There’s one more reason why this book is important. It’s a way I can give something back to the fans who have followed us for so long. I’ve met so many fans of my work that love monsters as much as I do and I wanted to give them something incredible. Something they could treasure for the rest of their lives. Something that speaks to a little piece of their soul with a little piece of mine.
Monsters and Other Scary S%&t is a love letter not only to monsters, but also to the creators and fans who made it possible. It’s a glorious, 224-page hardcover ode to monsters. It’s a love letter to monsters, from 30 creative teams who adore everything about monsters.
