Kung fu knives and guts

Jog posted a crazy essay about Hong Kong comics legend Tony Wong here. Lotsa great, gory covers as well! Wow, man! I love this paragraph:
Before you, says the image, waits a kingdom of untethered entertainment. Comics with a maniac in charge, and he's got a message for YOU. One that promises the glory of another nation's pop, to infest the one that's here. I suppose that's the message of all pop comics from outside cultures - but Jademan Wong made it all seem to me like the product of a man's sick, wonderful personality, the eccentric alive and validated and the fore of a mass culture just some water away.

Injury #2 in progress


I thought I'd give you guys a peek at my cover sketches. These are two color treatments for the front cover. I need to get it done asap so I'll post the final in the next day or two. Let me know what you think. The book should be in stores some time in March, but don't quote me on that.
HEY - If you want to get a letter into the letters column or vote for or against Heracles, you'd better get on the stick.
