Award winning artist Billy Tackett hasn’t always been referred to as “The Creepiest Artist in America”. With humble beginnings in rural KY, the darkness came a-callin’ early on. His fondness for Famous Monsters of Filmland over Little Golden Books hinted at a dark future to come. Eventually his mastery of the macabre arts drew him to the big city in search of more enthusiastic victims. After publishing over 200 book cover and illustrations he created his signature piece, Zombie Sam, giving birth to his Dead White & Blue series. Those paintings then became the inspiration for the Dead White & Blue Comics graphic novel, scheduled for release early 2009 from Abyss Walker Comics.
