Last post this week is from Corey Thompson, be sure to check out his portfolio too. Monday starts the serialized contributions again, so keep your eyes peeled!
“The yellow blob throbbed. It made sick, wet sucking sounds.
It turned slowly. And I saw round black eyes on top of the lumpy yellow body.”
This scene takes place just after the egg monster from Mars hatches. It is morning time and Dana wakes up to find his egg hatching in his sock drawer.
I didn’t read much as a kid, but I owned a ton of Goosebumps books mainly because of the rad cover art by Tim Jacobus. Anyways when picking a book I narrowed it down to three books, and Goosebumps stood out the most. I picked Egg Monsters From Mars, because it was one of the first Goosebumps books I owned and one of the few I read.
I’m Corey Thompson, a freelance maker of things, anything from a one page zine to an identity for an apparel designer. Some clients include: Grenade, YouWorkForThem, HP, and LiveNow. I also post daily doodles on my personal site. Other things I dig: the Trail Blazers, warm weather, X-Files, and Stargate SG-1.

The square bottom looks like a pile of mattresses. Is that intentional?
