This month’s Art Gallery design is from the 2012 Unstoppable
Cards Night of the Living Dead release. The artist is Jerry Fleming, an amazing
artist out of Los Angeles. He is well known
for his appearances at Comic Cons around the country. The movie Night of the
Living Dead is one of my favorite horror films. It was George Romero’s first
film, and it was a giant step in establishing the zombie genre.
When the Night of the Living Dead cards were released I
had talked with Unstoppable Cards owner Jason Wright, they are a small company
out of the UK with a number of British entertainment licenses like The
Avengers, Blakes 7 and Dr. Who. Jerry Fleming has done a number of sketch cards
for the various Unstoppable Cards releases.
I picked up this card because it is from my favorite
scene in the movie, the scene where Johnny and his sister Barbra are visiting
their father’s grave and in the distance a staggering man appears shuffling
along through the grave yard and Johnny does his famous “There coming to get
you Barbra!’ line. The card was only a couple of dollars but cost another $4.31
in shipping because it was coming from England, a price I would happily pay again for a
cool card like this.
