I really don't listen to much "big-label" music anymore. My top 8 friends over there on the right are my favorite musicians at the moment. Check 'em out!
Movies
It's easier to list my favorite directors:
Don Coscarelli
John Carpenter
Ridley Scott
Stuart Gordon
That's just off the top of my head. In general, I dig anything with a cool monster fight (e.g.: the Underworld series), as well as timeless classics such as:
The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
Master of the Flying Guillotine
Anything starring Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, or Jet Li
Television
Trailerpark Boys
Books
H.P. Lovecraft
William Gibson
Someone else I can't recall right now.
Heroes
Frank Frazetta,
John Buscema,
Jack Kirby,
Steve Ditko,
Moebius,
Bob Ross,
and my Dad.
About me:
Adam Black was found as a mewling infant in the desert by a clan of leather-clad, hard-drinkin' narwhals, and raised on a steady diet of heavy metal (both the music genre and the magazine), spicy foods, slasher flicks and strippers.
He started making comics in the mid-1990s, back when everyone and their brother were publishing independent black & whites, and moved on to RPG illustration shortly thereafter, choosing his clients with the phrase, "the weirder, the better". He teetered on the edge of full professional commitment to his "art" while holding down a soul-sucking IT job for many years. He counts this as his only real regret.
In 2007, he gave the finger to IT hell and began working on Kiss 4K, which he would eventually take over entirely (as writer, artist and letterer) for four issues--the first person in history to do so. He is also the first comic artist in history to trade a drunken, hastily-drawn sketch for a lap dance in Tijuana. True story. References are available upon request.
When the Kiss gig dried up, he moved on to his own project, Locus, a comic best summed up as "Boobs, Blood and Bad Language"(tm). He also does tattoo design, album covers for independent bands, spot illustrations and private commissions...especially if any of the above involves demon girls with their tits hangin' out.
Read Locus online for free by clicking this handy banner doohickey:
Adam's site, "Monsters & Nekkid Ladies" can be found (naturally) at monstersandnekkidladies.com. He neglects that site pretty badly, though. You have been warned.
When not drawing demon girls with their tits hangin' out, Adam sits around and dreams up new ways to draw demon girls with their tits hangin' out. It's what he does. It's all he does. And he absolutely will not stop until he is dead.
If you read that last bit in your head using Reese's voice from the Terminator, it's a lot funnier. Try it!
Some other links for you:
My deviantArt account, where all the good art's posted. MySpace won't let me show you all the tits and blood I draw.
My real blog, where I can also post questionable pictures. :)
The Locus Forums, which is pretty much the only forum I frequent anymore, due to time restraints.
Who I'd like to meet: Frank Frazetta
Gerald Brom

Berni Wrightson
Erol Otus
(not necessarily in that order)
ha ha ha. The BEST befreindification note ever. As a side note, I must keep all praise of your fantastic comic to these network sites. I swear to God every forum I post on wilts and dies. Rather than do that, know that I fucking dig each new page of Locus (1 hr playing around-YOU DOG~!)
VELUCIKA wants you to join their Vampire Clan. Vampires is a new strategy game played on MySpace. Rise through the ranks from a rookie vampire to the most powerful vampiric force in the world.

Yeah things didnt work out so good in new orleans so i went to stay with family till i got my life straight you know. anyway i am getting out of here soon as possible just trying to figure if im going back to new orleans or heading to boise lol
its been interesting i guess, going back to the place where it all started but im sick of this place so im probably heading back up there myself. I cant stand oklahoma it sucks worse than i remembered. The difference this time will be that i have no strings. Unless things somehow work out with me and the woman. Not sure what would happen then.
My Heart is Very Sad today ! I'm so angry at My Leaders in Washington ! They Are a Terror to The Whole World by Not Closing Our Border with Mexico ! America is The Hub of The Activity Of All The Nations Of The World ! Every Country that does Business with The United States will be infected with This Virus ! The First Case was found in Mexico March 9th ! Over 100 people are dead Now in Mexico , and Yesterday was The first Death here in The U.S . ! I Have a Theory that in One Month Every State in America Will Have This Flu , and There will be Over 100 Deaths already in America ! This Flu should For Now on and until The End Of Time be Called The Obama Flu , because He had the chance to Stop this thing This Week !! The window to shut The Door To Mexico will soon be Too Late , and America Will be Swarmed with this New VIRAL Invader ! If Obama Loved The People of his country and The People of The World He Would Act Now !! Like all the Communist Legends Of The Past Obama must want to go down in History as A Killer Of The The Innocents , and for now on I will never call him Mr. President , but I will Call Him Mr.
