Matthew Allison, the creator of the comic Cankor, brings the gill-man to life with his new Creature from the Black Lagoon poster for Mondo, dropping on Thursday, October 19. His composition illustrates the epic underwater harpoon showdown between Dr. David Reed and the gill-man. No gill-men were harmed in the making of this poster.
Before jumping to the details, we have a quote from Mondo’s Senior Creative Director about working with Matthew Allison:
“I could NOT be more excited to have Matt Allison work on this print for Creature from the Black Lagoon. This is a chocolate and peanut butter moment for Mondo! Matt’s illustration style is a perfect fit for the classic monsters as it reaches into the grave of 50’s horror comics, pulls out pieces of EC and R. Crumb, and cranks the electricity to 11! More Matt! More Monsters!!” -Attack Peter
