You are all super-fags. The Misfits were good, anyone sweating whether or not they were deep or meaningful should have their face caved-in. Catchy tunes, that’s it. As my friend’s father once said, regarding comments my friend and I were making whilst watching one of his bestiality videos, “If you going to intellectualize this shit, I’m going to turn it off”.

Additionally, is the author of this post 9? Gaussian blur and levels? You have achieved extra-fag status, or you threw the anachronistic Photoshop reference in purely to annoy me.

Okay look. The Misfits Skull comes from a 1930’s gangster/crime serial (one short 10 minute episode every week) called The Crimson Ghost. Stan Lee used the picture in his magazine from the show. Glenn Danzig used a xerox machine to get the effect.
However, not to totally discredit you, Glenn Danzig has stolen many of his designs from comic books. the cover of Die Die My Darling is from a 1950’s horror comic called Chamber of Chills, and the actual Danzig skull is from the 1980’s toy-crossover comic Crystar, the Crystal Warrior.
There’s this cool website you should check out, it’s called WIKIPEDIA and it knows a whole lot more about stuff than anyone on streetcarnage.

[...] a tasty MTL bagel I ran across some interesting info on the origin of the MISFITS skull over at Street Boners. Apparently Stan Lee published this comic book for about one year in the 70’s with Marvel [...]

I read somewhere that the Misfits were gay… not in literal terms, in that “they’re so girl-wearing-skirt-as-a-top” way.

Metallica were massive misfits fans, fuckface.

And crimson ghost was an old horror film.

Jorge, you forgot Angelfuck and She. Blink 182 always felt, to me, a little like the modern day Misfits, to a certain extent. They were the band that somebody would get into to get their feet wet, and then move on and pretend not to like them because they were too mainstream, but wouldn’t have heard of without them being so mainstream. Misfits have good songs with mainstream appeal…catchy hooks and skulls will always be a winning formula.
