Biography

The Misfits are a horror-themed punk rock band formed in 1977 in Lodi, New Jersey and originally led by singer Glenn Danzig (born Glenn Anzalone). The Misfits' iconic skull graphic was lifted from the 1946 television serial, 'The Crimson Ghost,' while the typeface is from the 1950s-'60s magazine, 'Famous Monsters of Filmland.' Glenn Danzig was very interested in Marilyn Monroe, and took the band's name from The Misfits, Monroe's last film.
