Merlyn



Here's a take on "Merlyn" from "The Once and Future King" I did for Steven Gettis's awesome website:

Digital Medusa

Steven describes the site as "a personal collection of various artists interpreting their favorite literary figure/author/character..." And WOW! you should see some of the artists that have contributed! Alex Toth, Bill Sienkiewicz, Bruce Timm, JOHN BUSCEMA!!!!, Mike Mignola, and one of my favorite artists, Walt Simonson drew an amazing version of J.R.R. Tolkien and Michael Moorcock! There too many great artists to list them all, but go check it out and enjoy the "awesomeness" that Steven has put together!

Congratulations man!

Can't wait to see what your stuff for Dreamworks looks like. Even if it will be a long time coming.

Any further news on the book and it's availability??? I've been dying to get my hands on that for YEARS now!
