Ed Repka

Edward J. Repka (born October 22, 1960)[1] is an American graphic artist, best known for creating album covers for metal bands as well as shirt designs, including those featuring Megadeth's mascot Vic Rattlehead. Repka's portfolio also includes Dark Angel's logo and model designs for the Hellraiser films. He works for the National Entertainment Collectibles Association as their lead painter and head of art direction.

Repka's artwork based on the original Universal Studios film The Wolf Man was used as the cover art for the first issue of horror magazine HorrorHound.

Repka admits that despite being known as the "King of Thrash Metal Art," [2] he is not a big fan of the genre. He is more into the Punk genre like the Misfits. [3]

List of works
gollark: It seems a good idea complicated by the issues of actually getting enough and the early insistence by some dodecahedra that MaSkS DoN'T woRk.
gollark: Still, we can't *stay* in lockdown for an indefinite amount of time, it definitely has to be a temporary thing, and there seems to be a distinct lack of plans for dealing with COVID-19 after that.
gollark: I think it is significantly below 1 most places, which is something...
gollark: If you keep R *around* 1 but cannot get it lower - and since we can't really do total lockdowns I think that's the case in some places - you're not getting rid of it, just slowing down the whole thing.
gollark: That too.
