cc5203223fe766c426332abee9c40d02.jpg I'd love to read the H.P. Lovecraft-Tintin crossovers behind the covers expertly painted by Murray Groat. UPDATE: Murray adds that these aren't for sale as Hergé/Moulinsart S.A.'s rights apply. "I am getting alot of print requests by email, which is nice, but I have to sadly tell each and everyone of them that I cannot."

    Ha ha ha. Oh wow.

    A real book you can read (though out of print and costly) is P.H Cannon’s “Scream for Jeeves”, a delightful mashup of Howard Phillips and Pelham Grenville.

    My favorite story therein is the delicately titled “Something Foetid”.

    Should I be embarrassed to admit that I know of Cthulhu from South Park and not from H.P. Lovecraft?

    • Jamie Craig

      Yes. Yes you should.

      However, it doesn’t make the South Park nor Tintin versions less hilarious, so it’s all good. :)

    Will our heroes escape from the claws of that horribly… litigious Hergé estate?

    I am sad that I can’t actually read this.

    It’s great work, but I fear Groat’s missing something: http://font-cat.com/font-en-25181.html
