So, I don't know who Larry Elmore is -- apparently some comic guy. Here's what he's working on:

"Liberality For All - 8 issue mini series - Color

Synopsis:

America’s future has become an Orwellian nightmare of ultra-liberalism. Beginning with the Gore Presidency, the government has become increasingly dominated by liberal extremists."
-http://accstudios.com/f/synopsis1.htm

It appears to be an alternate reality in which Gore won the first election. Except, the conception given here of what would have happened is severely and bizarrely warped.

I think my brain is bleeding, and in true sadomasochist style, I thought I should share the joy with you-all. Link courtesy of pyat.

Dear.


God.


I think its Satire. Please god, let it be satire.

It is The Real Deal!

Koga would respond, but his head has M'asploded. Its a combination of Explosion, Implosion and Melting all at once.

The meltiness means that the comic is working. Relax, and let it consume everyone you love!

Well, to be fair, Larry only did an alternate cover for issue one. I don't know what his politics are like, though he seems pretty laid-back.

For those who don't know him, he's a prolific fantasy illustrator. He's painted more book covers than I've had hot dinners.

That is insane.

heh, brilliant.

Completely off-the wall, probably offensive, and a good take on comic culture - if it turns out decently.

Larry's Wikipedia page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_Elmore) doesn't have much, but it does link to his official site.

I sat next to him at one of the Bayshore Used Game Sales, and have a picture to prove it!

Yeah, I saw that a couple of weeks ago when it was linked on DailyKos... it's... special.
