Tom Floyd's Spider

The talented Tom Floyd, creator of the online adventure comic Captain Spectre and the Lightning Legion, is the interior illustrator for Moonstone's upcoming Spider anthology.

Over on his website, Tom's set up a Flash-animated slideshow which previews all the gorgeously grotesque illustrations that he's done for that forthcoming volume of blood & thunder fiction.

Now, I've been a fan of Tom's pulp-styled art for a few years now, but these marvelous drawings really blew me away, and made me very eager to read the stories that will accompany them. That one of them was written by yours truly makes it even more of a thrill.

Check it out for yourself. You won't be disappointed.

Thanks for providing that link and the information on the new Spider collection.
As a fan of the pulps and early action advnture characters, I can't wait to see how the modern writers take on a character that was rather extreme back in the 20's and 30's.
