MODOK's 11 Movie Posters 

Created by Eric Schaefges in honor of my upcoming series SUPER-VILLAIN TEAM-UP: MODOK's 11! Feel free to post on your own sites if you're a fan of the book.

Rightwing 

Can conservatives' greatest superhero prevail when all his liberal enemies band together to destroy him? Can Rightwing win his neverending battle for truth, justice, and a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage?

Cthulhu Tract 

There's no easier way to explain your worship of the Great Old Ones to your friends, loved ones or mental health professional than this handy, easy-to-understand religious tract comic from the co-creator of ACTION PHILOSOPHERS!

See, this why Comics Space is so great...it allows demented imaginations from all walks of life and geographies to interact and appreciate one another.

Matt, in comics it's unlikely, as co-creator Steve Ellis has moved on to other things, but the origin of Cardinal will be revealed in a short prose story I wrote for a Moonstone anthology that's comin' out later in the year, and we signed a development deal for a SILENCERS movie, so you and I will both shall cross our fingers and see!

It's too bad that there won't be any more Silences comics, but I am really looking forward to the prose story, and I will keep my eyes peeled for any and all movie developments! Thanks for taking the time to respond! --Matt Anderson

You have shown your loyalty to MODOK. Now...continue to write of MODOK, or write nothing, and die.

Hi Fred -- Just wanted to let you know that I picked up several issues of Action Philosophers last year, and thought they were brilliant. I love documentary and history comics (actually working on one of my own, in very low gear). You're a really original creator, and I congratulate you!
