Robot 666 | Greg Hinkle illustrates Edgar Allan Poe’s Annabel Lee
We finished up our run of Parasomnia yesterday, but we’ve still got one more treat for you from artist Greg Hinkle:
“Here’s my illustrated version of Edgar Allan Poe’s short poem, Annabel Lee. I thought this was a wonderfully creepy little poem, and perfect for Halloween. The first three panels are a Robot 6 exclusive, and have never been seen by anyone, anywhere, ever before. They’re just for you and your lovely readers.”
–Greg
Thanks again to Greg (and Storm, Jason, Matt and Josh) for sharing Parasomnia with us this week. You can find the complete poem after the jump.

Freaky Friday: All new, sorta different
If I tell you the title it will spoil the joke
Welcome to the newly revamped Freaky Friday, where we gather all the “weird” comic-related links that don’t quite fit easily in any one heading or are just strange enough to make you sit up and take notice. If you come across something that makes you do a double or spit-take, let us know by clicking on the “contact us” link on the lower right.
* We’ll kick off with an amusing and somewhat dark little strip Derek Ballard did for Vice magazine that I shall not spoil at all.
