PANEL ONE: Meet Dylan Croft, a young red-headed man who wears a ponytail and dresses like a thrift store pirate. He smiles at the audience.
NARR:
My name is Dylan Croft. I live in Prince Edward Island. This is my story.
PANEL TWO: A picturesque aerial shot of Coven Cove.
NARR:
First, let me tell you about the town I live in. It was founded in 1785, a while after the first settlers came here.
PANEL THREE: An antique photo of the town’s founders, dressed in 1785 garb. However, they’re all smiling. They are holding a painted sign that says “TOWN COUNCIL.” and the bottom of the picture frame is labeled “Our Founders.” There should be an equal number of men and women.
NARR:
But what makes it special is that the town founders were witches. Yup. All of them.
PANEL FOUR: An antique photo of people stepping off a small sailing ship onto the dock at Coven Cove, 1745.
NARR:
They’d come fleeing persecution for witchcraft; that horrible business in Salem, Massachusetts may have come and gone, but anti-witch sentiment was still high.
PANEL FIVE: The town founders holding a ritual around a bonfire. One of them holds what looks like a book of magic, and is reading aloud from it; the others all seem to be chanting with arms raised.
NARR:
So they decided to found a town where not only was practicing witchcraft allowed, but respected.
PANEL SIX: A picturesque sign, freshly painted and with old world charm, that reads “Welcome to Coven Cove.”
NARR:
And they named it, quite appropriately, “Coven Cove.”
Hi folks! In anticipation of my Kickstarter launching in two days,( http://bit.ly/KS_PREV ) I thought I’d share the first few pages of SPECTRUM #2 for your perusal and hopefully, enjoyment! Art is by Jeremy Thew, colours by Marvin Marvida, story and lettering by Michael McAdam.
As a fan of DC Comics’ Green Lantern, I’ve always been fascinated by their interpretation of the colour spectrum and the emotional resonance that each colour has.
But I started to think: Since there are more than seven human emotions, surely there’s room for other interpretations of the colours? After all, the very nature of a spectrum is that there are levels– gradients of colour.
To me, Yellow is JOY. It’s a colour that sparks joy in me, and I wanted very much to make a character with a yellow power ring for whom joy was the focus.
I made the character of Yellow Lantern, a fan fiction version of DC’s Lantern mythology, to explore that. Please enjoy the second instalment of Yellow Lantern: “What is Joy?”
Veronica and Maeve have fled their home in the Czech Republic, travelling secretly across Europe to London.
Suddenly ripped from her insular gargoyle society, Maeve has been learning about the human world thanks to her more-experienced best friend–but where has Veronica gotten that experience? What has she been doing among humanity for the past twelve years?
