His original collection 'Necronomicon' is now out of print. Copies on the collectors market now go for upwards of $100. His work for 'Dune' was done for Alexandro Jodorowski quite a few years ago when Jodorowski was going to do it. I hear David Lynch decided not to use him for the upcoming version (they're both painters, and each have their own unique style) He has produced a book of his work on 'Dune' for Jodorowski, but it too, may be out of print by now. Other examples of his work exist in various forms, he's been in Penthouse, Heavy Metal, and I think, OMNI. His Alien was made into a 1 foot tall 'action figure' by Kenner, but I think this too is no longer available. One new item that just came out: a 3-D tee shirt with Alien Jr. bursting out of the chest. It's put out by a company that produces some very gross 3-D tee shirts, (hatchets stuck in them, guts hanging out, etc.) and they're brand new products.
