Arete Editions are well into the production of “Frozen Hell”, the extended version of John W. Campbell Jr.’s “Who Goes There?” which was made into the movie “The Thing” by John Carpenter. The newly found novel length manuscript was discovered in 2019. Greg Manchess is the artist. He has created a lavish, richly illustrated interpretation of the story. He loves the snowy Antarctic landscapes and the scientists’ growing realisation that the shape shifting creature from another world is alive. The story will be illuminated by sixteen oil paintings, from single page to four-page foldouts, and loads of black and white illustrations and decorations. This will be printed at @Hand and Eye.
