Hot dog, hip, hip hurrah and hallelujah!!! Wrench Productions grants us a new, exciting issue of its out-of-this-world, illustrated anthology, Bizarre Dimensions, hosted by none other than the suave and perpetually entertaining, Mister Lobo. If you've enjoyed Mister Lobo's sublime presence on the celebrated Cinema Insomnia, you'll find him as equally engaging as a horror-comic host.
Anyway, I was beyond pleased by what Wrench Productions cooked up for its initial installment (see March '17), and Issue #2 is as fine as a sequel as one could want.
In this instance, Mister Lobo ushers forth two, new tales, the first being "Wild Wood" by Cliff Jones and Andrew Richmond. If you like warped, virile, backwoods parables and gruesome films like "Grizzly" and "Claws", with some twisty terror thrown in, you're in for one mighty, mind-blowing treat.
The second story is a psychotic excursion by Richmond and Peter Goadby-Watt, entitled "Barbarous Behavior". In this unorthodox, visual set-up (full-blown "Lobotastic Pictovision", that is), we get both big-city paranoia and sadistic fate, in what becomes a veritable nightmare to rival the best of "Rod Serling's Night Gallery" and "Roald Dahl's Tales of the Unexpected".
I gotta say, ever since I was a wee lad, I've adored horror comics, and Bizarre Dimensions captures all the weird wonderment of the best of 'em, including EC's Tales from the Crypt and Vault of Horror, as well as Warren's Eerie and Creepy.
Of course, it helps when one has a charismatic personality like Mister Lobo at center stage. No celebrity, whether in horror or comedy, can match the man, and his rise within pop-cultural heights continues in all facets, as Wrench Productions' Bizarre Dimensions #2 incontestably demonstrates.
