Devils Reign III: DAIKAIJU – Book Release, Burlesque, Craft Beer & Art Exhibit 

The third book in the annual Devils Reign series will be released this Saturday, December 2nd, in Fort Myers, FL. Devils Reign III: Daikaiju is curated by The High Priest of The Church of Satan, Peter H. Gilmore. The art book showcases giant monsters by over 100 top illustrators, tattoo artists and painters. Inspired by Gilmore’s life long interest in Godzilla and giant beasts.  The book includes an expert introduction by the High Priest and a foreword by legendary monster painter Bob Eggleton. Produced by tattoo artist and publisher Andy Howl, the book pulls together well known artists such as 1960’s underground cartoonist S Clay Wilson, heavy metal album cover artists Mark Riddick, Jeff Gaither, Wes Benscoter, and Seldon Hunt. Comic book superstar Matt Frank, known for his Godzilla work, is among those contributing brand new art. And internationally known illustrators and tattooers such as Derek Noble, Onnie O’Leary, Robert Borbas, Florian Bertmer, Dave Berns, Clamore Wolfmeyer, and Jeff Srsic are included in the long list of names.

Saturday December 2nd, HOWL Gallery/Tattoo celebrates the book release with a special night of art, craft beer and burlesque. The event starts at 6pm with an art exhibition and Bury Me Brewing craft beer release at HOWL. A selection of artwork featured in the book will be on display by local and national talents, and will accompany the release of BIERHEMOTH a German style beer made especially for Gilmore and The Devils Reign III.
