Be sure to scroll to the end of the article for some high rez images of the artwork in the book Here are a few things to know:
The book itself will be published in October 2021 no matter what, however the publisher is using a Kickstarter, happening in March, as a way to handle pre-orders and to offer some amazing perks for backers. Here's the scoop on that. As usual, the book can be pre-ordered, but backers will have the chance to get a licensed, limited-edition, high-quality Frank Frazetta art print featuring a new poem by award-winning author Alessandro Manzetti. There will also be a level where backers can get an illustration of themselves as the monster of their choice. Oh -- and stunning, exclusive art postcards by Sam Shearon are another possible perk some backers can grab -- one of those is attached as well.
The Kickstarter live dates are March 8 to April 7. But you can check out a preview here https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/manbomb/classic-monsters-unleashed-anthology. Comments are closed.
