This title is fitting for a Halloween post on Midwest Represent.

Friend and family of MWR, Joaquin (Frank) Verges, is hosting a photo gallery at Rodan in Wicker Park.  Stop by Sunday, November 8th to see a collection boasting some of his best work.  Whether you know him or not, I suggest you stop by. Chances are you’ll see a Chicago homey or two…
