Next Friday we’re opening up pre-orders for Magic of Myths: season two. Then you’ll get the chance to buy a copy of the book, delivered to you for launch day, 26th July 2013.
And we’re doing something very special for pre-orders.
Everyone who pre-orders a copy of the book, will receive a LIMITED EDITION copy of Magic of Myths: season two.
This consists of:
- The main story (67 pages, across four chapters – that’s over twice the story material of season one) and the following extras:
- A special, limited edition cover (of which you can see an early version above)
- Seven pin-ups (with some of the artwork you’ve seen on this very site) by Magic of Myths artist, Sergio Calvet
- A sketchbook section
- The full script to Issue three (which is the big turning point) of season two, along with commentary from the creative team
- A free digital version of the book
Furthermore, the first 10 pre-orders will receive an exclusive sketch from Sergio, featuring any character you want from Magic of Myths - your choice.
Be warned:
This edition of Magic of Myths: season two is limited to the point where once we stop taking pre-orders at the end of June, the Limited Edition of the book will NO LONGER BE IN PRINT.
So to own this version of the book, you’ll need to pre-order *before* 1st July 2013. Once it’s gone, it’s gone – you’ll still be able to buy Magic of Myths: season two after that, but it’ll be the regular edition *without* the above extras.
Pre-orders will be open from 31st May 2013. The first 10 will get a sketch from Sergio, along with their book when Magic of Myths: season two launches on 26th July 2013. If you want to be in with a chance to win a sketch as soon the pre-orders start, we strongly recommend signing up to this site using the side-bar on the right (near the top of the page) so you know as soon as the pre-orders go live.
New to Magic of Myths and want both season one and two?
You’ll be able to buy season one *and* the Limited Edition of season two at a combined, discounted rate. There are plans for a combined ‘all-in-one’ book as well, but this will be just the regular editions, so again, without the extras which are exclusive to the Limited Edition.
See you on 31st May!

We’re nearly there…
We’ll be opening up the Magic of Myths: season two pre-orders at the end of the month, but in the run-up we’ll be revealing what you can expect for the second entry of this fantasy graphic novel series. The first is the cover:
‘Tempus‘ is the sub-title of season two – why, will become clear when you read it…
As for that release date:
Magic of Myths: season two launches on 26 July 2013. So, just a couple months off.
We’ll be taking pre-orders by the end of May, where we’ll be offering you the chance to own a very special copy of the book.

Sergio’s been hard at work creating some pin-ups as we get closer to the Magic of Myths: season two pre-orders – and we have something very special and very limited for that, so sign up so you don’t miss out…
Here’s one of the pin-ups in question…

… we won’t say what yet, but we’ll show a few work-in-progress snaps:
Obviously it’s something to do with Magic of Myths, but can you work out who it is? Any early correct (and clean!) guesses will win something nice…
There’s a talented someone crafting this, but we’ll reveal more as time progresses…
In honour of Ray Harryhausen, 1920-2013 May 7, 2013

It’s important to pay credit where it’s due.
Ray Harryhausen has passed away. The man, whose genius help make fantasy and mythology on the big screen a very real, very magical thing, inspired generations with his work. The impossible, made possible through his hands and imagination.
He was a giant in special effects and SFX direction. And simply put, without Ray Harryhausen, there would be no Magic of Myths. Nor, we imagine, would there be a lot of other works out there that we enjoy today.
Good night and thank you, Mr Harryhausen.

How time flies.
Yes, Magic of Myths has turned the ripe old age of three since the first issue (Issue one ‘Lord, What Fools These Mortals Be’, from season one) was released. It’s been a long and occasionally bumpy road, but we’re happy and grateful to have had your support over these years.
So, to celebrate, we’re going to do a little giveaway.
Magic of Myths: season two is closer to launch than you may think – we’ll be announcing the date, cover and title very soon on this site.
In fact, it’s so close that we’re giving three people the chance to read a digital version of it before launch.
For free.
All you need to do is send us an email at magicofmyths@gmail.com. That’s it. First come, first served.
The first three will get their digital pdfs as soon as the book is complete, which means you’ll get to read it before anyone else.
Ready? Go!
Magic of Myths turns 3 next week… April 24, 2013

Magic of Myths artist, Sergio, was originally working on this pin-up as an homage to Ray Harryhausen, who is one of the main influences in Sergio’s design of the fantasy world shown in Magic of Myths.
He didn’t intend it to be a posthumous homage and was as saddened as anyone to hear of his passing. But it’s still a very fitting tribute to the departed special effects master.
Here’s to you, Mr Harryhausen.
