The Outer Limits – signed print 100% cotton, acid free, hot press paper giclee print.
The Outer Limits is a comics & collectibles store in Waltham, MA, where I grew up. It’s been there for as long as I can remember, owned and operated by a great guy, named Steve Higgins.
It’s a magical place that shaped the lives of many of my friends, and myself. It’s where we discovered amazing art and stories, met friends, became obsessed with comics, characters, artists, and writers. I try to stop in whenever I’m in town. Over the years I’ve brought friends, my kids, and my wife to visit the sacred place that is Outer Limits.
On my most recent visit I stopped in looking for some inspiration. I ran into an old artist friend from high school, and was introduced to another artist by Steve. We all chatted for a while and at one point Steve suggested I paint some toys from the 60’s.
This tin rocket ship was sitting in a glass case at the front of the store. Even though I knew it wasn’t exactly what he meant, I thought, “Well that looks like it’s from the 60’s.” I then remembered the Metal Men astronauts and the gold Kidco Silver Warrior I had in my studio.
From there I grabbed my Battle Mountain from Timmee Toys and some tentacles that are meant to go on fingers. What I wanted to make was a scene out of an old B Movie, or even something that might have appeared on an episode of The Outer Limits.
