Found, another series of H.P. Lovecraft comics adaptations of which I was previously unaware. Previews<\/em> reports it has now been mostly reprinted<\/a> in paper by Caliber, and that “The Statement of Randolph Carter” is being added to the series soon. The latter is said to be re-set in the modern age.<\/p>\n

I had of course been aware of Caliber’s two volume Lovecraft’s Worlds<\/em> anthology collection, seen below. It’s been out ages and I’m fairly sure I’ve even interviewed one of the artists.<\/p>\n

But despite my occasional perusing of Previews<\/em> I was not aware that they’d been adding to the series. For instance, a third volume of Lovecraft’s Worlds<\/em><\/a> in 2018.<\/p>\n

Then there’s H.P. Lovecraft: The Early Stories<\/a><\/em>. Not a comic but a heavily illustrated edition using Joshi’s texts and with an introduction by him.<\/p>\n

And a The Shadow Over Innsmouth<\/a><\/em> adaptation in 80 pages. <\/p>\n

There are other interesting looking indie titles at Caliber, of the sort you’ll never hear about via the corporate press. Such as a 165-page Arthur: King of Britain<\/a><\/em>. <\/p>\n

This focuses on how Arthur was originally understood in the 12th century…<\/p>\n

From veteran comic writer\/artist Michael Fraley comes this history of the famous and legendary character known as King Arthur. This fully illustrated comic series and collected graphic novel is faithfully based on the original adventure of Arthur as it was written by Geoffrey of Monmouth in the 12th century. Geoffrey\u2019s work is considered one of the most important books of the medieval period, and served as the skeletal framework from which all Arthurian tales have since been based.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Arthur: King of Britain<\/em> is available as a five-book \u00a310 Kindle series on Amazon<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Talking of comics, I’m pleased to see one of my Digital Art Live<\/em> colleagues on the cover of the latest ICC Magazine<\/em> #16<\/a>, and with an interview inside. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
