Happy Halloween 2020.

Halloween might be more virtual and probably happening at home under lockdown for most of us, but at least it's one thing this year that's not cancelled and can be enjoyed together, either with family or online with others.

And so with that in mind, we decided to make our horror topic this year the theme of Viruses (mainly the fight against Corona and fear of it spreading). The idea of infection and the battle against it and to contain it. Basically, artwork that deals with the paranoia of being under attack from a deadly outbreak.

So mask-up, wash your hands and come closer (but not too close, yeah) for our new Virus themed SLASH-UPS art:

A dual wielding Doctor makes his last stand on Plant Corona in Andrew's latest Sci-Fi themed pin-up offering.

While back on earth, fire is the only real cure when battling giant germs in James's Attack Of The Covid artwork.

We're sure there'll be a lot of Corona inspired art appearing in the coming year and years, as people try and visualise and make sense of what it was like living through this modern plague. It's sure to be a big subject most artists will have something to say about, that's for sure.

So a Happy Halloween to those celebrating it this weekend. We don't know if 2020 has really been spooky, but it's certainly been scary and very stressful for most. We hope everyone is staying safe this October, and please enjoy these two new pin-ups as a nice Halloween treat.

Also just a quick reminder that Babayka-Lives also starts again this weekend, just in time for Halloween. For readers wanting to read the next installment of Babayka Land as the hunt for the evil old man continues.
