Medusa! Some old books! A really ugly dog! And a cartoon Day of the Dead box! Now your Kindle can look weirder than ever when it’s not in use. (Don’t worry, it looks awesome when you’re using it.)

Here’s a larger version of Poe, looking sufficiently melancholy. Probably thinking of what rhymes with sepulchre or something like that.

A reader asked me about a Poe screensaver, so I decided to make one. My god, he looks gloomy. That’s Poe for ya.

Because things don’t always work out for the best when you’re surrounded by technology. (Shh! Don’t let your Kindle hear that!)
