Who is Eric Monster Millikin?
Eric Millikin, also known as Eric Monster Millikin, is an American artist, humorist, and blogger; formerly a human anatomy lab embalmer and dissectionist. He is known for his pioneering work in Internet art and webcomics, and for his controversial semi-autobiographical artwork with political, romantic and horror themes.
Millikin began posting comics and art on the internet using CompuServe in the 1980s, and began publishing on the World Wide Web as early as the fall of 1995. His artwork has also been published in books, serialized in newspapers, and displayed in art museums. The themes of Millikin's art often involve the occult, romantic relationships, and self-portraits as well as portraits of celebrities and political figures. The artwork is mixed media, often combining expressionist paintings and optical illusions with found objects. Millikin's works often have political themes, and the text is sometimes written in free verse or ambigrams.
Millikin is one of the few, and first, webcomic creators successful enough to make a living as an artist. He often collaborates with artist Casey Sorrow.
