We miss ol’ Bernie Wrightson. He would have turned 72 today. Heavy Metal cover artist, creator of Captain Sternn, co-creator of Swamp Thing, illustrator of Stephen King and Mary Shelley — and generally acclaimed as Master of the Macabre. And nobody ever had a bad thing to say about him — he was as kind and gentle as his art was scary and creepy. Did you pick up the Bernie Wrightson trading cards that came out in the mid-‘90s? Spectacular work.

RIP Bernie Wrightson!  

We lost Bernie Wrightson three years ago today — to those who knew him he was not just “Master of the Macabre,” he was also a prince of a human being. Did you known that the original of this art, “...I Shall Be With You on Your Wedding Night,” from his 1983 adaptation of Frankenstein, sold at auction in December for $1.2 million? . #berniewrightson #berniwrightson #frankenstein #ishallbewithyouonyourweddingnight #ripberniewrightson https://www.instagram.com/p/B94Rs-3lUdT/?igshid=6ruqxbujplag

A year ago on this date we lost one of the greats — Bernie Wrightson, master of the macabre. Here’s cover art for House of Mystery 231, May 1975. Rest In peace, Bernie. #ripberniewrightson #ripberniwrightson #berniewrightson #berniwrightson #houseofmystery

A somber nod to Bernie Wrightson, who would have turned 69 years old today. Wrightson, the "Master of the Macabre," was famed for his work on horror comics, Swamp Thing, and illustration projects like his adaptation of Frankenstein. He was also a Heavy Metal contributor, and the creator of Captain Sternn and Hanover Fiste, who were both featured in our 1981 move. Wrightson died earlier this year, but the body of work he left behind will be enjoyed for generations to come. Here's an illustration was used for the back cover of the September 1982 issue of Heavy Metal. We miss ya, Bernie! #berniewrightson #berniwrightson #heavymetalmagazine #swampthing #ripberniewrightson
