Who?s that moon-faced assailant standing behind you with the large kitchen knife?oh my God, there?s blood everywhere!! If I only I had a nickel every time that happened, I?d have a king?s ransom?of nickels. That?s right?for thirty years Michael Myers has been wearing (arguably) the creepiest trademarked mask of any serial killer out there, and all the while?well, serial-killing anyone who dares cross the path of the soulless, black holes that peek out from behind it. Although the Halloween series definitely had a period of short-lived animosity, Michael Myers has never reduced himself to space adventures (*cough* Jason *cough*) or attacking the movie set of a movie being made about himself (yes, I?m looking at you, Mr. Krueger). The Halloween saga has been done some recent justice as well, thanks to Rob Zombie. And now Devil?s Due Publishing is gearing up to do it some more! Devil?s Due is commemorating the saga with a series of comics detailing the untold stories of some of the films? classic characters, including ol? Michelangelo Myers himself, his sister Laurie Strode, Dr. Samwise Loomis, and of course L.L. Cool J?s character from Halloween H20?kidding! Either way, the art looks freaking incredible and it?s definitely a primo collector?s item for horror fans everywhere.
