Dark Horse Comics and Dark Horse Direct are celebrating the 20th anniversary of Mike Mignola and Dave Stewart's The Amazing Screw-On Head and Other Curious Objects with a new fine art print.
CBR can exclusively announce that Dark Horse will release a brand-new fine art print of The Amazing Screw-On Head and Other Curious Objects. The print features all-new art by Mignola and Stewart and measures 24"x18". Limited to 300 copies, the prints will sell for $49.99.
"The Amazing Screw-On Head and Other Curious Objects is a seminal work in Mike Mignola’s storied career," said Dark Horse Direct Director of eCommerce Melissa Lomax "Fans can revisit their favorite dimension entombed in a turnip with Screw-On Head while he wrestles the fate of the world from the diabolical Emperor Zombie! This is a perfect display piece for any fan’s collection, and will only be available from Dark Horse Direct. Because of the expected demand for the print, we’re capping orders at two per person."
Mignola, who is also known for his work on Hellboy, said The Amazing Screw-On Head and Other Curious Objects is one of his favorite titles he's worked on to date. "As proud as I am of the Hellboy stuff, the stories that make up the Screw-On Head collection are actually my favorite things I’ve done," said Mignola. "They are the most ME, they are as close as you’re going to get to looking inside my head and seeing the stuff that runs around in there."
Dark Horse is also publishing a new hardcover edition of The Amazing Screw-On Head and Other Curious Objects, which features 40 pages of new material -- including 19 pages of the never completed or published Axorr, Slayer of Demons story, which is written and drawn by Mignola.
On Aug. 13, the Los Angeles-based Secret Movie Club will host the first public screening of Mike Mignola: Drawing Monsters at the Million Dollar Theater. Prior to the showing of the documentary, the evening will begin with a 35mm archive print of The Bride of Frankenstein. Following the screening, Mignola, filmmakers Jim Demonakos and Kevin Konrad Hanna and Secret Movie Club founder Craig Hammil will conduct a live onstage interview. Attendees can additionally purchase limited edition Secret Movie Club posters featuring Hellboy, Frankenstein's monster and the Bride of Frankenstein done by Mignola and Stewart.
