The World According to Danzig

Might Glenn Danzig claim the fearmonger-turned-celebrity throne vacated when Ozzy Osbourne's TV show ended? Seems possible. The brooding singer, formerly of the Misfits, Samhain, and, uh, Danzig, has lurched along the dark end of rock street for three decades, and will be forever remembered for the immortal lines, "Father!/Do you wanna bang heads with me?!" But at 53, Danzig has been looking to expand his empire beyond cult (and occult) audiences. Danzig songs have been played during the Super Bowl and World Series, and the man himself (in cartoon form, anyway) has appeared in an episode of Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Danzig also founded a goth-porn comic book company called Verotik. Is a reality show next?
