Today’s Great Showdown by Scott C.: “Wolfman’s got nards!”

If you don’t know about Scott C.’s ongoing art series The Great Showdowns, you should, and now you do. I was lucky enough to meet Scott at this year’s Emerald City Comic Con in Seattle, and my suspicions about him were confirmed: he is the happiest, most laid-back dude ever. Seriously. Follow him on Twitter and you’ll see what I mean.

Today’s showdown features a quote from a movie that was among my favourites when I was growing up: The Monster Squad!

Oh yeah, Scott did another one with a werewolf in it, too. Go check him out, he’s the best.

Lou Romano’s “Monster Squad” Remake, in Art Format

Lou Romano is a guy whose creativity you can trust. The Incredibles? The Iron Giant? Monsters, Inc.? Yeah, he was production designer for those. He’s had his art in New York’s Museum of Modern Art and on the cover of The New Yorker, and he’s done voice acting in a number of Pixar films. He can also fly, and has a car that shoots lasers from its headlights [citation needed].

Lou’s work is presently part of the Cuter Than Stranger exhibit at Gallery 1988 in San Francisco. The reason you should know about this is the five 6″ x 6″ acrylic paintings he did of the monsters from The Monster Squad. These paintings are terrific, and they are for sale. Yes, even The Wolfman.
