Fletcher Hanks
Fletcher Hanks comics are filled with rigidly drawn characters battling bizarre forces with powers that are both Godlike and surreal. The use of primary colors in most of Fletcher's comics only adds to the strange dreamlike atmosphere of the stories.
Scroll to the bottom of the link posted above to see 3 Fletcher comics. Below you'll find links to various Fletcher Hanks comics. Unfortunately there's pop ups in a few of them, so beware.
Stardust The Super Wizard from Fantastic Comics #1
Stardust Vs The Emerald Men

Virgil Finlay
Another great artist associated with pulp comics, Finlay's intricate linework is comparable to the likes of Gustave Dore or Albrecht Durer.
See Datajunkie's posts showcasing scans of Finlay's art by click the following numbers... 1 2 3
Click here to see an illustration Finlay did of a Lovecraft story, part of which can be seen above.

Rodney Matthews
Matthews has created many paintings exploring fantastic landscapes with alien monsters and strange technology, usually in some form of conflict. His interpretation of trains and cars are very bizarre. Click here to see a second gallery of his work.

Many strange pictures to be found in this gallery. The running theme in much of the work is a very grotesque mutation in the human figure, from completely abstracted facial distortions such as this, to the golem sized beast in this image. The pictures are incredibly detailed and the ink washes in the gallery section are amazing.

Theodor Kittelsen
Kittelsen made many fantastic illustrations of characters based out of fairytales and legends. Images such as this and this one depict very nightmarish and haunting creatures lurking about. This image of humanoid creatures made from mounds of hay is especially disturbing.
2nd Gallery
Artist found thanks to BibliOdyssey's link to this gallery of Trolls. Check it out to see more work by Kittelsen.
I found this strange drawing of a giant skull face made from strange landscapes and buildings. It appears to be artwork for some band called "Sileni"?

The image above is an aquatint etching based on "The Temptation Of St Anthony" by Jacques Callot which I've linked to a few times on Monster Brains. The sprawling landscape filled with monsters as far as the eye can see, this is the kind of artwork I live for. I imagine Joe Vaux has probably seen this one. Be sure to check out the following links to see more work by this artist.

This gallery contains a wide selection of surreal bronze sculptures that define strange objects and characters. There is an ancient and often Lovecraftian vibe about much of the work.
