NEW YORK - NICK GAZIN'S BIG HEAD, THE VICE GUIDE TO COMICS, AND OUR SHOW IN SAN DIEGO

It doesn't matter if he comes in here and pats our backs all chum-like with his oily paws and says "thank you" in this friendly, humble tone that you wouldn't expect from a man with a mustache like that, we're guessing Nick Gazin's feeling a little big-britchy about the new Guide to Comics we've got slimy-infant new for today. He edited and put it together and calls himself "Emperor-in-Chief" (does he not know the implications of bragging about that title as taught by the IV Atu of the tarot? basically he's calling himself a tyrant baby) therein. But it's not his, it's Vice's, so get your grabby delusional hands off it, buddy. If he were going to our party in San Diego on Thursday during the mothership of all Comic-Cons—which we're throwing with Gwar and 3 Inches of Blood for that new Brutal Legend game—most likely he'd be running around, all, "Yeah, I put this together, too." Jesus Horus, Nick, get a fucking grip.

But there is one thing for which he can call himself proud papa and proprietor, and that's this new drawing (see above)/T-shirt duo he made, which his friend Lamour made sculptures of, which Mishka packaged together as a wild skully combo. We're afraid if we breathe even a cilia of a compliment he's going to start blubbering about how he's accomplishing all his dreams in life, the ones he's had since he was little, so instead we'll just say: here's Nick Gazin's latest offering. Look at some hot exclusive behind-the-scenes shots of the toy thing without its makeup on, which you can get all trolloped out at the store on Thursday (if you're in New York) or at the Comic-Con (if you're in San Diego).
