It's amazing to me how popular Cthulhu has become in the last few years. I was introduced to Lovecraft's works back in the late 80's (as a kid) along with his close friend, Robert E Howard (Conan). I was in a dark place then. Brooding, melancholy, and a bit aggressive; all typical traits of a teen traversing puberty. I still have a fondness for Lovecraft's stuff, but I find it curious that the figurehead of his dark pantheon is gaining traction within pop-culture. I'm not sure at exactly what this says about the current climate of society, but it's quite interesting that more and more people are drawn to this literature and the concepts it revolves around. Maybe Lovecraft's dark god is calling out to his tractable souls..."buy my shit and together we will drag the world into darkness."

...anyway, very cool statue...wish it were a 20" fig though.
