Post-Apocalyptica

Possibly Relevant to Your Interests:


My friend Ron Miles, who runs the fan site about the author of the Deathlands series, got in touch with me yesterday to see if I had any time to put together a quick logo for him.  Normally, I have to turn down requests like that, since I'm just generally so busy, but he caught me right when I had an hour to kill, and this is what he was asking for:


I am calling the blog PostApocalyptica, and it will be dedicated primarily to discussing post-apocalyptic fiction in film, television, and print as well as occasional bits on Gold Eagle and write-for-hire publishing in general. I just did a complete site redesign last week, you can check it out at http://www.JamesAxler.com.  It's your basic black background with red accents. I am just looking for a logo to put at the top of the page, hopefully something that screams "every bad knockoff of The Road Warrior that was ever filmed in the desert on a non-existent budget".


Seriously, how could I turn down a design brief like that?  While I may make every effort to keep this site as minimalist and classy as possible, I do have a deep and abiding love for big, garish, lurid schlock horror and sci-fi designs, so the excuse to try to make something that was deliberately kinda cheesy and in-your-face was just too irresistible.  Check out my logo — oh, and Ron's new blog, while you're at it — at PostApocalyptica.
