Not For Sale

During the November 2024 Comic Art Live virtual CAF-con, NextArt hosted a live sale that introduced me to the work of Justine Frany. I saw in the work presented a James Jean color palette that immediately sparked a commission idea: a Death tribute to Fables that combined my two favorite Vertigo heroines, she of the Endless and Snow White. I provided the cover to Fables no. 33 and requested that Frany flip it to better feature Death's signature eyeliner on the correct side of her face. It was completed in time for SDCC and once again I was able to rely upon Vegas neighbors to mule it back for me. Thanks to Daryl and Jeff for that!

Justine went beyond a simple flip to decorate the border with tiny skulls and make it much more unique while still nailing the assignment. Jiggy offered to buy it himself if I wasn't happy with it - but seriously, who wouldn't be happy with this? I'm lovin' it!
