The Amazing Screw-on Head!

| | Comments (1)

A few years ago Hellboy creator and all around badass artist Mike Mignola put out a one-shot called The Amazing Screw-on Head. The comic had nothing to do with Hellboy, it was just a stand alone story about a guy-robot-head-thing that screwed into various bodies to combat the paranormal at the bidding of Abraham Lincoln and the American Way. But instead of being played for weird thrills, it was a comedy book. This weird little comic never promised a sequel, wasn't ever reprinted and never made the slightest attempt to explain itself. It was what the magazine format of comics should be used for all the time. But anyway, they made a fucking cartoon out of it. With Patton Oswalt writing, and Paul Giamatti doing the voice of Screw-on Head. And the animation is unbelivable. While its not the smoothest in the world, it looks like Mike Mignola drew the thing himself. And its free on the net. I've said enough, just click here and watch the thing. Then vote for more episodes (I know nobody watches the Sci-Fi channel, but we can hope for DVD's down the line).
