Chuck Sperry's Umphrey’s McGee poster is inspired by the Norse God Thor, who lords over the earth from high Valhalla, above the Rainbow Bridge at the end of days, Ragnarok.
New Years Eve is a symbolic renewal, a rebirth of creative energy, and a transformation of old patterns into new. With the end comes a new beginning!
Chuck has always been inspired by the mystical and underground comix style of the master poster maker, Rick Griffin. This poster is a tip of his Viking helmet to the king.
