    NOTES ON THIS COVER: the illustration is from "The Principles of Light and Color" by Edwin D. Babbitt, published 1878. The cover design idea was mine, but it took Ariana and Mark at Avatar a great many hours to improve it and make it actually, you know, work.

    A graphic novella, eh?

    Prose with pictures, or sequential storytelling? Either way it sounds quite promising.

    Only 48 pages? Isn´t this overly compressed? Is this a "real" story or a pictured thesis like CRECY?
  4.  (1623.4)
    A graphic novella is just a short graphic novel, like CRECY.
  5.  (1623.5)
    The case of the man who wasn't there.


    this looks very good, and (happy to say) yet more money to spend.

    Cheers to Avatar for publishing more work like CRECY, then.

    You had me at Ruritania.

    This looks like a winner. Time to pre-order.

    So this is what was referred to as SAX RAKER'S WAR, right ?

    Very cool. I think I saw the cover image or something like it in a university textbook. Maybe I'll dig the old things out to see.

    that looks great. steampunk?

    the lack of an artist name on the cover - although seconds later i saw the 'graphic novella' warning - made me think it was prose.
    hope it doesn't allienate your comics crowd. they can read, i know.

    Making further moves towards a creator driven market I see.
    It's trad Novel design with the authors name up top and the largest. A great choice.
    Echoes of Crooked Little Vein too. A Warren Ellis trade dress?

    This is under the Apparat label, beginning of a new series of one-shots but in a new format?
  19.  (1623.19)
    CRECY was the beginning.

    Sold me with the title. Cool. I take it we are supposed to get the "the great detective and good doctor" vibe? Thank you for this in advance.
