Wormwood: Gentleman Corpse Intro

Just turned in the intro to the next compilation of Ben Templesmith's Wormwood: Gentleman Corpse comic. I'm not sure when it's coming out, but above find a little teaser about Wormwood, and below a snippet from my intro.Some long-dead painter from the Renaissance once said, "Be normal in your life so you can be strange in your art." As far as I can tell, Ben Templesmith resembles that remark--one of the hardest working guys out there, one of the nicest people you're likely to correspond with...and yet, his talent is seriously weird. Weird in a way Decadents like Baudelaire and Rimbaud might admire. Yet also weird in a way the Ramones and Iggy Pop might admire.
