Any fans of Ed Repka and his work with Megadeth, Nuclear Assault, etc?

(meg-a-deth), n. (1) a unit of measure equal to the death of a million people by nuclear explosion (2) Megadeth, the world state-of-the-art speed metal band

Believe it.

I fucking love that definition, and remember seeing it on their old shirts. Finally found one on eBay....

The good news:

The bad news (this is the front) :

If only it had the original Ed Repka artwork on the front:

If anyone ever finds a Megadeth shirt with that dictionary definition on the back, with cool artwork on the front, let me know.

This is some good artwork too:

He's definitely my favorite Thrash cover artist. He also did the first Sanctuary, and Municipal Waste's album (which I don't care for) and Toxic Holocaust - Hell On Earth. And of course the Evildead albums. And Necro. And I'm sure there's other stuff that 1) I don't remember and 2) I don't even know.

He doesn't have a website (or at least, I can't find one), but here's a list of his works:

I didn't know he did Beyond The Gates and Eternal Nightmare.

I guess they're not exactly distinctly "Repka," though. Very nice work on those, nonetheless.
