It's just a pastiche of previous evil dead posters, which, for me, almost entirely defeats the purpose.  Simply reprinting previous images seems rather lazy, in both creativity and effort.  

Yeah, it's a bit of a retread, but the layout is sharp...
Looks more like a movie poster.

This last one Davis did -- covering three movies -- is just too busy for me...

Definitely like this one, though don't know if I'll be able to get one.  I hate waiting for drops.



I'll see your Davis Evil Dead 2 and raise you a Danger The Walking Dead.



DD is selling some, most are being sold at Paleyfest in Beverly Hills where the show (and others) are being celebrated with the cast.
G1988 is curating, and selling some as well, soon.
Best regards,

Holiday

Hey Brude,

This poster is meant to be seen in the dark. When viewed in the dark, the glow really makes the poster. Takes the busyness out. The best GID poster I have ever seen.

This one is a pass for me, I think.  Danger has a way of growing into people, but I'm really confused as to what this one has to do with the series, which I love.

T

It is a portrayal of Rick Grimes in the hospital hallway after he woke up and is trying to make sense of things.  He is still wearing the hospital gown, and if you go back and watch the episode, you will see those phrases scrawled.  The one on the doors says "Dont Open Dead Inside".  We later see it chained and locked with zombies trying to push their way out.

Thanks.  You know what you did.

Oh.  I kinda forgot about it.  But now I remember.  Danger is one of those artists whose work needs to be seen in person.  What size is this print?

The print is 12x24.  Same size as Wolfman, Jabberwock, his Silent Hill print, etc..

Actually, it would look pretty striking next to Wolfman on a given wall.  The use of red and blue inks conveying light to darkness in each print is exceptionally done.

You're hilarious.

You go from 'passing' to driving to the event and purchasing it in person, all within the same day.  Did you have to buy a ticket for the event?

I know I'm a nerd, but I'm not nerd enough to drive to the event to watch a bunch of people talk (reminds of comic con, yuck!).  Plus, I've met Darabont a few times, so the excitement is dead. 

Nope, I simply ordered from Gallery 1988 and will go pick it up later.

As did I. 

Make sure you ask for a mint one.  The boys over at EB mentioned how many of them are scuffed or damaged, but Jensen was cool about folks who were picky about condition having their choice of the lot.

I remember a funny story: Darabont produced Collateral and he really wanted a bus stop poster for the movie.  So he called DreamWorks distribution, but they didn't have any.  He called again a few weeks later, and again, and again, to the point where they decided not to give it to him.  So he called Development, and they sent him to me :)  I agreed to help him, but only if I could get me a few Shawshank posters in return.  He agreed.  So I got him 2 bus stop posters, and he sent me 3 or 4 Shawshank, including a signed Struzan 10th anniversary one.  So I went to Struzan's studio in Passadena, and had him sign the poster too, with my name on it, the only way to have anything signed.

Such a nerd.

That's pretty cool.  I hear that Darabount is a pretty nice guy, down to earth.

So...when are you getting Spielberg to sign an Indy poster for me?  :)

Spielberg hasn't signed a poster in 20 years.  He stopped when he realized people were making money off his signature.  So... no.

i really like the walking dead print, but hated the show. i wanted to like it badly but as someone else stated above it got worse with each episode.

has any one seen the david lynch prints at phoneboothgallery.com

here is the blue velvet (actually really like this and am surprised it is still available)

less than 25 left of these

and here is a link to handiedan's preview of lost highway

Wow I guess being on the galleries mail list is totally worthless. I wanted the Danger one and now have to pay 100 to get it. The show was not bad, but the comic has never really had any low points in the entire run.

It wasn't on the mail list.  As DD explained on his Facebook page, they didn't have enough to do a full blown release, so they did it at random more or less.  DD allows that he will have more for sale this week or next...so don't go throwing away your C-note on ebay just yet.
