A Pan-tastic Comics Preview

Interested in taking a look at The Saga of Pandora Zwieback Annual #1, Pan’s first full-length comics adventure, which goes on sale May 22, 2013 at finer comic shops? Of course you are!

Head on over to the StarWarp Concepts Web site and check out the first six pages of “Song of the Siren,” a story written by me and drawn and colored by Eliseu Gouveia, who provided the art for the free comic The Saga of Pandora Zwieback #0 and StarWarp Concepts’ mature-readers graphic novel Lorelei: Sects and the City. It’s about Pan and Javier Maldonado’s first official outing as girlfriend and boyfriend, and the encounter they have with one of Javi’s old girlfriends—who’s not what she appears to be…

Also appearing in the annual is “Shopping Maul,” a short story I wrote that involves Pan, Javi, Pan’s best friend Sheena McCarthy, and and Pan’s monster-hunting mentor Sebastienne butting heads with a trio of Elegant & Gothic Lolita vampires. It sports a great title page illustration by artist Elizabeth Watasin (Charm School, The Dark Victorian). Plus there’s a “Tale of the Paniverse” by DC Comics writer Sholly Fisch (Action Comics, All-New Batman: The Brave and the Bold) and comic-art legend Ernie Colon (Amethyst, Princess of Gemworld), about a demon paying a visit to his favorite pub.

The annual is being distributed to the direct market by Diamond Comics Distributor and is currently listed in the March 2013 edition of Diamond Previews. Ask your local comic shop owner to order it today!
