Available on November 11th from Titan Books and author Dan Jolin, we have an exclusive 8-spread preview of The Toxic Avenger: The Art and Making of the Movie. From concept art to set photos and in-depth cast and crew interviews, this 160-page hardcover book has everything that fans will want to dive into the making of the book, and we're excited to share this exclusive preview with Daily Dead readers:
"When a downtrodden janitor, Winston Gooze, is exposed to a catastrophic toxic accident, he’s transformed into a new kind of hero: The Toxic Avenger. Now, Toxie must rise from outcast to savior, taking on ruthless corporate overlords and corrupt forces who threaten his son, his friends, and his community. In a world where greed runs rampant… justice is best served radioactive.
As bold and irreverent as the original 1984 cult classic, Macon Blair’s 2025 adaptation of The Toxic Avenger is a contemporary reimagining that stars Peter Dinklage, Jacob Tremblay, Taylour Paige, Julia Davis, Elijah Wood and Kevin Bacon. When a struggling everyman janitor is pushed into a vat of toxic waste, he is transformed into a mutant freak who must go from shunned outcast to underdog hero as he races to save his son, his friends, and his community from the forces of corruption and greed.
In this official movie companion hardback with a neon glow in the dark cover, The Toxic Avenger: The Art and Making of the Movie has everything movie fans will want: uncover the concept designs and production art, alongside insight from the writer-director, crew, producers, and actors for this superhero movie set in the wacky and wonky parallel universe of Tromaville."
