I did a lot of explorations, pattern tests, and background building for Rebel Angels, and not all of it made the final cut. This particular Hellscape, for example, remains eternally consigned to Production Hell:
 |
| Not the San Andreas Fault... or is it? |
Unless, of course, it counts that I show it here and now... or does it?
Look what I found lurking in the dark corners of my hard drive: the cover to issue 2 of Rebel Angels! I forgot all about this thing. It depicts an assassin sent to murder Beelzebub in his fortress, only to be foiled by the warrior-queen of Hell.
It was fun to work on.
At least until I burned out.

| The Dread Book of Maggor Thoom |
Check out my other satirical graphic novel, The Book of Maggor Thoom:
On the dark and shadowy surface of a living black hole resides one Maggor Thoom, demon. After endless eons of success as the star employee of the Insanity Acquisition Department, he has lost his passion and purpose. Yet he knows all too well that those who do not drink the Antediluvian Kool-Aid are soon fed to the ravenous Maw.
To save himself from annihilation Mr. Thoom sets off on a desperate journey of self-discovery; he flees The Void and seeks help on a small blue orb called Earth.
Unfortunately for Thoom his arrival is detected by the Archon Hunters, an organization dedicated to protecting the world from eldritch horrors such as himself. Their task: hunt down and terminate with extreme prejudice the potential World Destroyer.
Can Thoom find a new purpose before he's snuffed out or will he inadvertently bring about the end of the world?
Published by SLG Publishing, natch!
I wrote the book during Covid lockdown. Can you tell?

Talk about a thankless task.
Obviously, this left them in a less than upbeat mood...

It's complicated.
