Dork Art: Mondo's Vinyl Halloween


In the last year or so, Mondo has been trickling out a rather varied array of vinyl releases.  Stuff like The Deadly Spawn, Oblivion, the recent Maniac, and Drive have all seen their soundtracks blessed with the Mondo exclusivity treatment.  I haven't bothered in the past, but I may make an exception for their upcoming release of John Carpenter's Halloween.  Apparently this is the first time the entire score has been provided on vinyl, and considering it's a masterpiece of simplicity akin to John Williams' JAWS, I'm shocked by that very notion.  Naturally, the record will hit the internet on October 31st.  The art is supplied by Phantom City Creative, We Buy Your Kids, and Jeff Proctor.  It's doubtful you'll be able to score one from Mondo, but I'm sure ebay will have them for a few hundred dollars seconds after Twitter announces the random sale time.  If you want a more detailed rundown, check out GQ.  Yes, Mondo is so popular now that GQ writes about their releases.  So bizarre.

Dork Art: Mondo's Got Another Wrath of Khan


Mondo's got another Wrath of Khan poster for us Trekkies.  Maybe not the stunner like Tyler Stout's epic print, but I kinda love this comic booky cartoon image from the artist We Buy Your Kids.  There's a sense of fun to this adventure and it can't all be grim revengey faces.

If you want one than you better get yer butt to the June 8th screening at The Alamo Drafthouse, part of their 30th Anniversary Summer of '82 series.  The 18 x 24 poster will run you $40 and there is no word if Mondo will sell this through their website or not.
