Comic book artist Bill Sienkiewicz always impressed me. And disturbed me. His scratchy style ( here in an obvious Klimt homage), kind of freaked me out, as a kid. This is a wonderful 9 panel grid splash page. Comic book conventions adhered to and broken apart in one go. Stray Toasters, from which this is taken, is fairly nightmarish. Yet all of his work, some for mainstream comics, seemed to attempt to elevate the medium.
