For any Crow fans, or anybody really, I would suggest this book of short stories & poetry inspired by The Crow. J. O'Barr edited it & also contributed a couple of stories. Other contributors: Iggy Pop, James S. Dorr, Ramsey Campbell, Dougles E. Winter, Henry Rollins, Nancy A. Collins, Christopher Golden & a lot more.
I got this for Christmas last year & just now found the time to finish it. Good reading!

Hell! Iggy Pop as a writer there?! Didn't see this book anywhere, but I would like to take a look at what he and Ramsey Campbell did at the very least! I guess Iggy's contribution beats Henry Rollins' easily?

Heeeeeeyyy...why are you dissin' on Henry?!  Actually both of their poems were pretty good, but I did like Iggy's better "Fleas" Iggy Pop There is a pain in life which visits us all. Of course, we went to know why. Why? If this pain be unjust, than actions are futile, living is joking, and the world is bad. If our pain reflects justice, then it follows to spend our live rooting out our faults one by one without end, like street dogs forever with fleas. Henry's is pretty good too, but way too long to type out here. ;D |

Pretty good indeed, 'Fleas'. Thanks for typing it, livingdeadgirl!
And Henry? Oh, I like him, I do. But sometimes I think he considers himself much more an 'intellectual' than he happens to be.

Yeah, well, I'm more of a Henry for his music, Black Flag & Rollins band, than his writing. But I do have one of his videos, kinda like a stand-up thing, some of it's pretty funny. He's definately one of a kind. ;D |

You know, I like the music Rollins Band plays, but I'm just not too fond of Henry's 'vocals' - I think it would all be better if a real singer took care of things there. The lyrics are also not my cup, usually. On the other hand - it's always nice to see Henry in movies.

He was also in Johnny Mnemonic and Lost Highway. Well - in more of them, in fact, but these two are most memorable for me.

I've seen bits & pieces of both of those, but I don't remember Henry... I'll have to watch them again I guess. |
