Beatrice van Slee grew up in the midwest, where once in a while it would rain, ever to her delight. Music was her first love, and as a child she'd pretend everything was a musical instrument, until she figured out it's more fun to pretend to play real ones. Her favorite memories of Chicago, where she lived for 20 years, involve bicycling all over the city to see friends. She now spends most of her days alone in darkened rooms dreaming up impossible things, emerging mostly at night in the wintertime to look for her favorite constellation, wishing for snow. She lives in Los Angeles, CA. Tom Gilliland has led the creative direction of Sideshow Collectibles for the last 17 years. A head full of D&D and heavy metal imagery, coupled with a near-death experience, have formed the genesis of Tom's exploration of the darker aspects of heroism, along with an appreciation for the twisted and subversive. All these elements were paramount in his creation of the world of Court of the Dead.
