Two Rondo Nominations. One Magazine. Your Vote.

 We're still processing this.

SPACE MONSTERS has been nominated for a Rondo Hatton Classic Horror Award for Best Magazine of 2025.

And Elizabeth Belmont's article "Elizabeth Bathory" from SPACE MONSTERS #2 is also nominated for Best Article of 2025.

We're in our first year. We're up against Fangoria. Rue Morgue. Little Shoppe of Horrors. Monster Bash. The magazines that built the genre. The magazines we grew up reading.

And now, we're on the ballot with them.

Why It Matters

We built SPACE MONSTERS because we love this stuff. The movies. The monsters. The history. The truth. Elizabeth wrote her article because she had something to say about the Countess of Blood—and it wasn't the story you've heard before.

Now we're on the ballot with the legends. Fangoria. Rue Morgue. Little Shoppe of Horrors. The magazines that built the genre.

We're in our first year. We're nominated twice.

Now we need your vote.

Space Monsters 3 and They Came From Outer Space Order Today

 

Greetings,

After the first two issues of Space Monsters hit shelves in its digest-sized movie magazine/comic hybrid format, I decided to make some drastic revisions.

Now, instead of a digest-sized publication, it's an 8.5" x 11" magazine-sized comic. That's right—a full-color comic anthology with guest artists, guest writers, anchor stories, and everything in between.

The price dropped from $19.99 to $12.99.

The page count is now 70+ pages per issue.

The frequency went from 2 issues per year to 4.

Every Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall, you'll get a new full-color comic delivered right to your door. And the subscription/fan club model is staying—subscribers get:

4 issues per year

A fan club button

An official membership card

Space Monsters #3 ships April 15. Preorders are open now.

The best way to order is directly from us:

www.obliviontrading.com

I've also reconfigured the shipping rates to be much more favorable, and I've temporarily put Gamera and Godzilla figures on sale. Digital editions of Space Monsters #1 and #2 are also on sale—dropped from $9.99 to $4.99.

These sales will run for the next week, or until supplies run out. I've got several other items I'll be posting this weekend that haven't been listed yet.

In addition, the 2026 Edition of They Came From Outer Space is now available directly through Oblivion. Signed copies. Full color. The stories that shaped science fiction cinema.

This is one amazing issue. You'll love it.

Oh, and Creepy Cryptids has an entirely new look as well.

Sincerely,

Jason Brazeal

Editor-in-Chief, Space Monsters

Space Monsters Limited Grimaldi as Grimpus Christmas T Shirt

 


MERRY GRIMPUS, YOU GLORIOUS EARTHIES! 🎄💀🎁
Santa checks his list twice.I'VE BEEN WATCHING YOU ALL YEAR. And let's be honest—your record is delightfully spotty. To celebrate your beautiful, consistent badness, we present the OFFICIAL SPACE MONSTERS GRIMPUS 2025 SHIRT.

"GRIMALDI KNOWS IF YOU'VE BEEN BAD... AND HE APPROVES."

This is your medal of dishonor. Your official uniform for the most anti-carol, nog-laced, punk rock holiday season imaginable. But listen up, you primitive Earthie party-crashers:

⚠️ THIS IS A STRICTLY LIMITED, ONE-WEEK-ONLY OFFER. ⚠️
Orders are open NOW and will VANISH FOREVER at 11:59 PM on DECEMBER 10TH.

Why the deadline? Because we're not Amazon. We use a premium print house to make sure this shirt is as high-quality as your bad decisions. Ordering after the 10th means NO CHANCE of delivery by Christmas. Don't be the ghoul left out in the cold.

Price: $34.99 | One print run only. | Order by Dec 10 for Christmas delivery.

Wear it to the family dinner. Wear it to trim the tree. Wear it to remind the world that the naughty list is the only one worth being on.

The clock is ticking. Your badness deserves recognition.
