Nice work James. I'm not familiar with this guy, obviously I'm not clued up on my Cthulhu Mythos.

H.P. Lovecraft, mmm. I'm definitely going to have to read it now. This cover is far too enticing not to be on my bookshelf. I can almost see the wavering strands of shredded material floating through an unknown current.
Magnificent.

Sorry for the double post, but I did want to say that while Hastur is commonly related to He Who Must Not Be Named, that relation didn't occur until authors made the correlation after Lovecraft's death. Just sayin' is all.

So anyone shouting out the answers like in school remember his whole name?- as in "He Who Shall Not Be Named"? I wouldn't want to be on the same contenent with you when the stars align and He comes to take his due.
Great work btw!
