R.I.P. SHANE BRIANT...

You were always one of my unique favorites: a pretty boy who engaged in love and danger.

So many examples prove it: Frankenstein and The Monster from Hell; Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter; Demons of the Mind; Straight on till MorningThe Picture of Dorian Gray '73; Gallipoli '15; Lady Chatterly's Lover '81; Out of the Body; Subterano; Hawk the Slayer; Von Richthoven and Brown; the Lighthorseman; The Mackintosh Man; Straight on Till Morning; The Children of Huang Shi; Liquid Bridge; Comrades; Run Chrissie Run!; Singularity; Serangoon Road; the Naked Civil Servant; and the upcoming Sherlock Holmes vs Frankenstein (can't wait to see that one). You also hold a dandy role in the steampunked "Under Pressure" episode of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Lost World (beyond a doubt, a true gem among all mole-men admirers.) 

You were also a prolific writer and painter: a creative genius on many eclectic levels.

In this regard, you justly hold the titles of legend, artist and gracious soul, Mr. Briant. Your fans will miss you to the max, and because of it, keep you alive and exalted in their ever appreciative hearts.
