The Cyco 78 Collection by Мишка
We’re proud to introduce our Cyco 78 collection. “What the hell is a Cyco 78 collection!?” you ask? Well allow me to explain. For a while now we’ve wanted to “go back” if you will to what we consider our graphical roots…a move away from logo and iconic driven graphics and back to those weirdo, creepy horror and metal inspired graphics that originally drew you to Мишка way back when.
We devised the Cyco 78 collection with that in mind. Dark and disturbing but not with out a sense of cynicism and whimsy…the Мишка aesthetic in its purest form. Each year we will be introducing small Cyco 78 collections about twice a year. Each Cyco 78 design will only utilize black, white and red and will only be available on black and white bodied tees. Oh and one more thing…we’re also only printing 78 of each graphic (broken across the two colors). Oh, and you can only get them at either our New York, Los Angeles, and Tokyo Shops with a small batch made available via our online store and that’s it!
187 T-Shirt ($30.00)
Is this cop wearing a Klan hood or an executioner’s hood? Either way you don’t want to meet him. I don’t get why so many people hate cops. Yes, some are corrupt or abusive but if you don’t freak out, scream, and remember to call them officer you’ll probably be fine unless you’re covered in blood. Also, never run from the cops. Running means instant guilt. Only run if you’re running so you can ditch any evidence of wrong doing while you’re running and know you’re going to get chased down and caught. Toss your coke or your knife away discreetly and then hope they didn’t see it when they do finally get you. What else? When in doubt do what Bart Simpson used to say, “I didn’t do it, nobody saw me do it, you can’t prove anything.”
Summing up, when you deal with the police: Be respectful, stay calm and you will get away. If you yell at or touch a cop, get visibly freaked out when you see them then prepare to possibly get beaten, pepper-sprayed, arrested and/or fined. Also this shirt rules but if they catch you breaking the law in this shirt then you will definitely get your legs broken. So this shirt is only recommended for law abiders and crazy psycho fools who want to fight cops. Illustration by Andrei Bouzikov.
Death Fix T-Shirt ($30.00)
Why do people love monsters and horror so much? It’s because most people’s lives are ruled by fear. Happiness is always around the corner but fear is with us all the time. Maybe you like the kind of horror where the monster represents AIDS, pregnancy, sexual cravings that are deemed abnormal or Satanism. Maybe you like the kind of horror where you relate to the monster and enjoy watching him hack up or eat his/its victims. Maybe fantasizing that you’re the monster is fun. Maybe it’s like torture. Maybe it starts off fun and then becomes a nightmare like in David Cronenberg’s The Fly.
This shirt’s about that kind of monster. Some poor lonely hate filled fifteen year old was transformed into a living skeleton. At first he had a lot of fun terrorizing people but he was eventually hunted down by angry civilians who just about beat the shit out of him. Also, I was ripping off Evil Ernie when I drew it.
Die By My Hand T-Shirt ($30.00)
There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow
Most people looked at him with terror and with fear
But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear
Ahhh Rasputin…he has been the impetus for many a Мишка design over the years. And while it’s clear what the shirt is about, I don’t know if we named this shirt after the Coroner song or the Satyricon song but both bands are pretty good and if you’re really into metal you probably fantasize about killing at least a couple people. I put on on metal and fantasize about being a giant fire breathing robot with a wheat thresher built into my torso and rotating blades located all over my wicked evil metal bod.
But getting back to the shirt… it’s a giant homage of an obscure punk image by Violet Ray, but we made it all Russiany because we are into Russiany shit even though it’s been proven that the kids fucking hate Russia. Rasputin did make the whole Russian monarchy die by his hand indirectly.
