DAWN: ANGRY CHRIST COMIX DIGITAL PRINT
by Joseph Michael Linsner
A blast from the Cry For Dawn-era past, this 11" x 17" print reproduces the sexy cover art to the Angry Christ Comix trade paperback, which collected Linsner’s early horror comics work. Featuring Dawn in her classic black lingerie, this image displays the heady brew of darkness and sacrilege that made Joe’s early work so popular. Dawn leans against the crucifixion of her creator while holding a very grotesque mask — as ever, Linsner's work is rife with symbolism. Printed in rich full color onto heavyweight art paper, the "Angry Christ" digital print ships in a tough acrylic sleeve, with a postcard certificate, signed by Linsner. (C: 0-1-2)
