Hah, you're right.  I remember me and my brother obsessing for hours over those pictures, particularly the one where a crow has pecked through a sort of membrane on one of the tripods and is eating the red goo.

It's been a while, but here's a bunch of cover art from SPREAD! I also put in some covers I did for Five Ghosts, Purgatori and Green Lantern. The color is by Felipe Sobreiro. The 3D rendering is by Michael Adams based on my design.

There's a glut of 'pocalypse comic books right now - zombiepocalypse, plantpocalypse, alienpocalypse, vampirepocalypse, nuclearpocalypse, rapturepocalypse, winterpocalypse, animalpocalypse, rapepocalypse, Superheropocalypse - but Spread is the only John Carpenter's The Thingpocalypse book on shelves and I am enjoying it more than most of its rivals*.
I also like that it has snowy backgrounds in it because I like artists to work like the dogs they are and then to worry if they've done enough.
