My fans are always complaining about the lack of pictures of me available over the internet. I take responsibility for this since I copyrighted my likeness in 1983, but this is my prerogative! Why shouldn't I make a little money on my pictures? Why should anybody else make money on me?
Legally, all pictures of me, except those taken at news conferences or stills from television and film projects I have done, belong to me and me only. If you see any unauthorized pictures of Corey Mystyshyn on the internet, please notify me immediately!
It's not fair to deny my loyal fans all access to pictures of me, however, so here is a small (free) sampling of Corey pics to whet your appetites!
Bon Appetit!

This is my first feature film role, as Torgo in the cult hit "Manos: The Hands of Fate". The year is 1966. The silhouettes in the foreground were added when the film was remade in the late 1980s as part of a show I never understood called "Mystery Science Theatre 2000".
Here I am with Wayne and Shuster, David Cronenburg, Keith Lawrence (Godson of Mary Pickford), Hume Cronyn, Geddy Lee (from the band "Rush"), Juliete Cavazzia and Les Lifeson at the 1999 Canadian Walk of Fame induction ceremony. I am in the middle row on the far right. All of us were given a "star" on Ed Mirvish row; unfortunaely, mine has since been stolen. It will be replaced this coming summer.
Here are a couple of personal pictures taken at the Open End Pub in Vanier College at York University. I had been asked to speak at commencement; these pictures were taken at the wine & cheese gala held in my honour after the graduation ceremonies had ended.
A copy of my commencement address is available at the York University library (with two VHS copies available at the Sound & Moving Image Library), or you can get your own written transcript of the proceedings through the York University Registrar's Office for $8, plus postage.
Your probably recognize these pictures since they are the ones used in my web ring banners.
