Mignola would have called this *my apologies to Gustave Dore* .. this has to be printed in A3 in a special bw edition! and even then.. noone these days would - sadly, but understandable - put so much effort in a single page
I was chasing a Franklin Booth finish, not realizing - until far too recently - that he was himself inspired by Dore, and trying to do in drawn line-work what Dore did with his etchings. :-)
My pleasure, thanks too! And fingers crossed it doesn't take too long. I never did get to a comic store when I was back in the UK, but will be in Berlin soon and will have a look about there, I know there are a few!
Btw, had to visit several shops since they were all out or they never even got the shipment. Anyway, eventually got way lucky and scored a virgin cover. So stoked. Thanks for the awesome work dude, the story is awesome and I especially love that panel of Conan and Tor toward the end.

Congratulations and Happy Birthday!
Thank you so much mate! :-)
Can't wait! First time I ever pre-ordered a comic, based on your preview art 😎.
Hope it doesn't take too long to get here (in Germany!).
I'm still waiting for my copies too! THANK YOU! :-)

By Crom, for once fortune favors us Stygian dogs.
Indeed! :-D

Sorry you had to hunt so hard, but that's also great to hear! :-)
I can't wait to be able to STARE at this all on paper! Congrats on this accomplishment! <3
Thanks So much! xox
