Tomorrow Weekend America’s annual Tales of Terror show will feature an original 30 second scary story by cartoonist Richard Sala, along with writer David Rakoff, comedian Dana Gould and others.
Last year the show included, amongst others, an original story by none other than Neil Gaiman.

I don’t know if this CD cover illustration by Patrick McDonnell ever was actually used, but I sure hope so.
On the other hand, for classical CD covers by cartoonists, check out the Classical Bytes collection by Deutsche Grammophon, which features artwork by Peter Kupperman, Richard Sala, James Sturm, Lauren Weinstein and others.
Update - it turns out to be a real record, and it’s even for sale on Amazon, along with a similar recording of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons and Pachelbel’s Canon. (thanks, Selina !)
The Ephemerist will be at the Angoulème Festival from Wednesday January 28 until Saturday January 31. If you want to meet up, let me know.
