The title is a little misleading but I thought people might find it interesting anyway.

Yeah Dennis Dread's blog is really cool. It's been a while since I didn't check the new articles, thanks.

Hah, never actually knew the Hell Awaits demons were totally ripped. A great cover nonetheless.

Much of what is there is not entirely new to me, but it's a pretty nice read anyway. Thanks for linking to it.

Cheers for the cool link - the story behind the Bathory-goat was intriguing news to me. Need to look around for that "Witches" book methinks.. Is it still in print?

Funny reading about the "Hell Awaits" artwork too. I have that issue of Heavy Metal and got reminded of how seeing that artwork for the first (or more like 2nd..) time messed with my head.

I'm not 100% sure, but the Witches book is probably not in print. It should not be difficult to get though, I've seen it only a few years back. Hm, come to think of it, it might be quite a few years ago, but anyway...
