Songs of the Abyss
A visionary, violent mash-up and retelling of key creation and apocalypse mythologies in wordless, intricate, black and white composition.
Songs of the Abyss, the evolution of Eamon Espey's critically acclaimed Wormdye, advances his obsession with grotesque spirituality. See ancient Egyptian gods giving birth to biblical giants, Santa Claus as the Devil's agent, and a scientist's sadistic experiments in search of enlightenment—all immaculately rendered in Espey's inimitable compositions.
Eamon Espey was born in Boston, MA in 1977. In 2002 he moved to New York to attain a Bachelors Degree in Cartooning from the School of Visual Arts. Around that time he began self-publishing the comic series Wormdye and co-founded Mount Olympus Society. His work has appeared in Critical Citadel, Free Radicals, and the Spitting Anorexic. Today Eamon lives and works in Baltimore, MD.
