First Printing. Enter the dark, gleefully twisted world of B.T. in Fiendish Monsters: The Horror Art of Bruce Timm! This frightful collection showcases nearly forty years of the legendary artists favorite horror-themed artworks. Featuring more than 130 pieces, this volume opens the vault on Timms personal drawings and private experiments created purely for his own amusement. It also showcases rarely seen illustrations and contributions to fanzines, Little Shoppe of Horrors magazine, books, and more. Guided by Timms candid commentary, readers are taken on a tour through his creative process. From rough sketches and preliminaries to fully finished ink and painted works. He reveals alternate designs never before shown, dives into his love of classic horror films and actors from his youth, and discusses how he refined certain pieces to their final, haunting arrangement. Inside youll find rare spot illustrations, unpublished alternate versions, and experimental pieces, some of which pay homage to the artists who shaped his distinctive voice. Timms work sits in that irresistible sweet spot between realism and his iconic animated style, capturing everything from monsters to beautiful women with equal passion. A celebration of one of his favorite genres and the sheer joy of drawing, this book invites you to step inside Bruce Timms shadowy playground of macabre moods, and ghastly delight. 80 pages, full color.
