What's It All About?
The original idea for this web site first began as an idea for an
article about comic book adaptations of Lovecraft's stories. But
once I discovered that someone else had already published such a
piece in "Crypt of Cthulhu" a few years back, I decided that it
might be best to create a web site devoted to the topic. That way
I could also present cover scans and other goodies along with
detailed information about the comics.
So primarily this site is dedicated to collecting all known information
about comic adaptations of Lovecraft stories. A secondary objective
is to collect information about comics that were inspired in some
way from one of Lovecraft's tales either in part or in whole. Some
fanzine and book format material is also included.
Most items presented are part of my personal collection, however
information about artists and writers, and cover scans contributions
are cheerfully accepted. All contributers will be noted on this
page.
Cover Scan Details
Here's some details about my cover scanning procedure. All covers
are scanned at 100 dpi, then they are reduced to an image no larger
than 480 pixels vertical. This size becomes the "large" scan of the
cover. Then that image is reduced by 50% to create the thumbnail
image. Thus anyone wishing to contribute cover scans, please scan
them at 100 dpi and submit them unchanged.
Contributers
Toren G. Atkinson - writer and artist on a fanzine called "Cannibal
Culture". Toren is also a member of the Lovecraft inspired rock band
"Darkest of the Hillside Thickets".
Edward P. Berglund - contributed several pages of information about
comic artists, writers, and story adaptations. Edward runs the superb
"Reader's Guide to the Cthulhu Mythos" web site.
