Midnight Pals: Fox Devils
Sam Richard: submitted for the approval of the midnight society, i call this the tale of the fox devils
Richard: it's about this kid from a super religious family
Richard: they don't even let him watch cartoons!
Richard: [shaking head] they don't even let him watch cartoons.
Richard: his parents are so religious they think all pop culture is satanic
William Peter Blatty: yes, yes
Blatty: they're right you know
Blatty: that's why i don't sully my brain with any non-catholic entertainment
Blatty: the only thing i watch is pope speeches
Blatty and Cars 2
Richard: his mother says "cartoons" are "a satanic playpen" and "tiny idols"
Richard: and that he needs to be "a warrior for christ"
Barker: why's she talk like that
Richard: like what?
Barker: like a zagat review
Richard: so one day his parents are at bible study
Richard: so he decides to watch a forbidden cartoon
Richard: his parents think that cartoons are satanic, you see
Richard: turns out that they're right
Blatty: i could have told you that
Richard: see, there's this cartoon
Richard: where a bunch of punks finds a satanic grimoire
King: wait, they put a satanic grimoire in a cartoon?
Richard: yes
Richard: really incredible the sort of things they put in cartoons these days
Blatty: yeah this all scans
Richard: and then the kid finds that same satanic grimoire in his local library
Richard: cuz it turns out this town he lives in
Richard: is really cool
Richard: the kid summons all these little fox devils
Richard: who follow him around and kill people
Richard: just a bunch of little guys
Richard: some real little birthday boys
Richard: but the important thing about these little fox demons
Richard: if this was a movie
Richard: we'd be talking some real wet puppets
Roger Corman: yes
Corman: YES
Richard: now the kid's gonna fuck up the evil town reverend
Richard: but the reverend's not important
Richard: what is important is these fox demons
Richard: they are adorable
Richard: you're gonna want one of your very own!
Corman: you know what would be great?
Corman: what if they killed people in really comical ways
Corman: like with a pogo stick or something
Corman: and there could be like
Corman: comical high-pitched chittering on the soundtrack
Charles Band: i like the way roger thinks

Happy Halloween season! Here's another stab at my own take of Carrie White, based on her book description. I'm super happy with how these turned out! I'd love to tackle some of the other characters in the book eventually, especially Margaret!
EDIT:
Now available as an art print here!

I fucking hate twitter with the fire of ten thousand suns and am only on it for work, but it was worth being on it today just to watch Elon Musk beg Stephen King for $8.

Imagine thinking one of the world’s most famous authors needs to pay $8 a month for a blue check because he needs clout.
