I want to know who drew this. Thus far, this is what I have been able to gather:

> I can't find an artist for the picture either. Stylistically is looks Soviet Controlled Eastern European or Soviet Russian dating to late 70's early 80's. Look at how the female body is depicted. It is very reminiscent of the Eastern Europe/Russian styles of that time frame. Not a ripoff, but an example of the style commonly seen back then. I have some old Sci-Fi book covers by European Authors that have colorized versions of similar styles printed in the late 70's to early 80's. Those Soviet Block Artist would have been cheaper then Western Artist. I don't really see any trace of Giger other then a monochrome color palette. The helmet is also an outlier to Giger's style. The rest of the drawing is also off. The cables are too smooth, manufactured looking. The proportions of the female in the drawing are also off. Too blocky, almost as if assembled not grown. Too many oddities in one drawing to let me say that it is a Giger. Never saw Giger draw a women with "Man Arms". Even his Alien Females have a suppleness to them.

This book is strange. Reviews say that the hardcover version of the book has NO art in it at all, while the paperback version does. The hardcover version SEEMS to be a plagiarized version of the Simon Necronomicon.

While the paperback does feature a collection of H.R. Giger work (Necronomicon IV was the artwork that inspired Alien, and drew Ridley Scott to ask Giger to create more), I don't think they actually had the right to publish them. 1 star reviews say it is "print on demand" quality, with even the cover image being pixelated, in addition to images within. The title "Necronomicon ex Mortis" is taken directly from the film "The Evil Dead".
So......WHAT is this?
Who created it, and when?
Did it originate on the internet, or was it at one point in print?
