It really says something that I now think of MF before I think Doctor when I see things like this. The metal-face mask with a built-in frown...

These are fantastic. I've been seeing single (unlinked) illustrations by this guy all over the place so I'm glad someone posted his blog.

Man, just come out and say you don't like the guy, comparing his work to boingboing is just mean.

He's awesome, but he's very Mike Mignola.

Some say Mignola, I say Grist. A crazy lovechild of both, maybe. Nice work.
