Thanks for your interest.
Anyone following Lurid Max, since its inception on Sept 28 2018, has seen the plethora of styles, poses, and many WIP drawings - as I studied artforms, by masters. This year, will see the fruition, of the long awaited vision, to have the detailed drawings, inked, colored, featuring original characters, stories, with dialogue, in the traditional comicbook form. First, Ink. Then in color. I have practiced a variety of inking tools. And have collaborated with some well known artists. Hundreds of pages of new comics are Already Done! All that remains is to ink, and scan, and color; and upload.
Support this, and bring the full colored comics sooner! ( if 5 people join at the $30 tier, for over a month, I will hire a colorist.)
Thanks for your interest, and kind patronage that has brought the Lurid Pre-Code Renaissance this far!
Season Three can continue later this year. I have been developing new art, constantly ( full comics – coloring digitally; acquiring/studying

Wes Craven Horror Exorcising Fear
Wes Craven's "Nightmare on Elm Street" films, and TV show conveyed an idea, that he deeply believed in: that presenting fictional horrors, was a way to exorcise fear; that fictional horror was therapeutic, in that it allowed viewers to face fears:
“It’s like boot camp for the psyche,” Craven said of viewing fictional horror:“In real life, human beings are packaged in the flimsiest of packages, threatened by real and sometimes horrifying dangers,..." " ,...But the narrative form puts these fears into a manageable series of events. It gives us a way of thinking rationally about our fears.”“I like to address the fears of my culture,” said Cra...
Mike Deodato Jr.
Artists whose work I have studied:
Mike Deodato Jr. - Deodato is a black belt, and draws musculature in motion better than any artist I've seen; in his own stylized way, that is signature inked and rendered around the abs in the front view pose. Some criticized his 90's style, the trend to shrink waists; but his work is more balanced than most from that era, and stands the test of time in my opinion. I like his style, and aesthetics, more than most comicbook artists of that period. I'm not sure who definitively originated it - but he perfected his version, and many studied him, and his style was promoted by other artists.
