This is a must for art fans, comic fans, horror fans. With a great introduction by Rob Zombie which encapsulates the Gogus phenomenon. This book is crammed full of full colour photos of hundreds of examples of Gogus' work . The lavish illustrations and fascinating text draws the reader into fantastic world of this great artist and illustrator. His illustrations of the famous Universal monsters of Filmland are well represented alongside numerous examples of his work for various comics and pulp fiction over the years. this volume also shows examples of his portrait, nature and landscape art. I cannot recommend this book highly enough, buy it and you will not be disappointed.
