MISFITS 40TH ANNIVERSARY
I couldn’t be more proud to work on the Misfits’ 40th anniversary logo! As a teenager growing up in South Carolina, the Misfits were a revelation for me. Let me set the scene… It was 1985, and I was attending a conservative private school, but my discoveries of punk rock and skateboarding were quickly eroding the illusion of conformist tranquility in my family home.Read more
