I know what you meant to type, but the image of an all-black bambi carrying a butcher's knife has been making me giggle for about 5 minutes now.

Um... "deer", not "dear". Dear of Death would be the wife, Deer of Death would be a rabid Bambi. Fine line of distinction, yes, I know, but there it is.

Skulls and death figures can look dated or classic looking, but they aren't necessarily dated. Among the young crowd death and and the afterlife is a big genre, not just in the biker world, but in art, music, literature and film. Then again, death is just a topic the all humans are curious about lol.
