Some lovely examples of artwork from Lovecraft stories, from what appears to be a new Spanish edition of comics adaptations by Erik Kriek. So far as I know, this book is currently only available in Dutch and Spanish.

I wasn’t aware that Heavy Metal comics veteran Richard Corben has tackled seven Lovecraft adaptations, in Haunt of Horror: Lovecraft (2008)…

Dagon – by Lovecraft
The Music of Erich Zann – by Lovecraft
The Canal (from “Fungi from Yuggoth”) – by Lovecraft
The Lamp (from “Fungi from Yuggoth”) – by Lovecraft
A Memory (from “Fungi from Yuggoth”) – by Lovecraft
The Scar (after ‘Recognition’ from “Fungi from Yuggoth”) – by Lovecraft
The Well – by Lovecraft
The Window – by Lovecraft

I was never a fan of his gaudy airbrushed colour artwork in the 1980s Heavy Metal, but his b&w style looks quite pleasing…

Argentinian comics artist Horacio Lalia (Judge Dredd, The Time Machine, Lovecraft) is licencing some of his Lovecraft adaptations…

During his career her has adapted…

“The Nameless City, The Rats in the Walls, The Festival, He, Out of Time, The Unnamable, Dagon, The Alchemist, The Colour Out of Space, The Haunter of the Dark, The Outsider, Pickman’s Model, The Call of Cthulhu, The Moon-Bog, The Dreams in the Witch House, In the Vault, The Mystery of the Grave-Yard, The Ghost-Eater and Cool Air.”

According to Amazon his adaptations were collected in a 2003 book, but it was in French. This is reportedly only 93 pages, so perhaps doesn’t include all of them. There also seems to have been two Spanish language collections Lovecraft: El Grimorio Maldito and Lovecraft: El Manuscrito Olvidado. There’s no English Lalia Lovecraft collection that I can find, although his adaptation of “The Festival” is possibly available in English for the iPad (the description page is very confused about what the product actually is).
