Steve Niles‘ four issue comic book Bigfoot was a collaboration with Rob Zombie. I have the four issue set, signed by Steve Niles and Rob Zombie. While the comic books are interesting, they certainly paint Bigfoot in a violent way. There is much blood shed. The four issue set is available on Amazon.com. The interesting […]

On October 26, 2006, "Sci-fi Investigates" broadcast their "Mothman" episode. While it had a few moments that are pure entertainment and certainly funny, it had little or nothing to do with "investigating" Mothman or unexplained phenomena. The program was a forensic failure.
