Los Angeles, California-based brand Brain Dead has been a successful purveyor of outré graphics—fueled by DIY culture, offbeat comics and visuals that fuse highbrow with lowbrow art. What really whets the appetite of founder Kyle Ng is “cult cinema, rare printed ephemera, bootleg anything, handmade toys and weirdo stuff in general,” he told HYPEBEAST this past January. The brand founded by him and Ed Davis recently debuted a new art book dubbed The First Two Years—98 pages of unruly graphics that Brain Dead has emblazoned on a slew of products from its first two years.

Only 100 copies of The First Two Years are currently available for purchase at OMMU.org for approximately $22 USD each.
