I believe that the artists we’ve used are some of the best available for the genre, from both the past and present. Not specifically a certain style, but artists who can convey a subtle horror mood effectively. We wanted to incorporate some of the proven greats from the original Warren books, many of whom were still far from hitting their prime when they produced that work, and we also wanted to work with some younger rising stars who could create work in the spirit of the Warren classics. We literally looked at samples from thousands of artist before deciding on our final line-up for the first issue of The Creeps. The true greats make themselves known over time through their body of work. The old Warren books had amazing writers and artist, some of the best in the history of sequential art, how do you find the next Jack Davis, Alex Toth or Wally Wood? I asked Rich Scala about the challenges of putting The Creeps together: Miss the old Warren books like Creepy and Eerie? Not a comic book, but an actual magazine format like the old classics? Well Rich Scala has created an incredible version of his own that harkens back to those great publications.
