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.

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…

A little nod to Harryhausen, from Sergio May 9, 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.

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!

One of Magic of Myths’ many nods to Harryhausen April 22, 2013

Sergio’s added some colour to our first double page spread for Magic of Myths: season two – so now you can see it in all its sunset-hued, gory glory:

During our creative discussions for season one, we decided to give the gods a bronze or gold plated (depending on their allegiance) statue look to add to their glittering – or tarnished – larger than life visage. As big fans of the legendary Ray Harryhausen, this double page spread brings together our references to his work, as well as being a big moment for the story.

We won’t give away much more info on this spread, but if you’re wondering (quick bolded clue, there for DC Comics fans) who the vicious lady with the sword is in the battle – that would be Diana, Roman goddess of the hunt and the moon…

And this is what the previously pencilled Magic of Myths: season two double page spread looks like with a little ink in its veins. Some colour is on its way…

Another, early look at some Magic of Myths: season two pencil artwork?

Sure, why not.

We won’t say what’s going on in this spread, but needless to say, things take a rather dramatic turn in Eve’s journey. And what she comes across changes the direction of her life forever…
