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.
Make sure you don’t miss out – register your interest by sending an email to magicofmyths@gmail.com.

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

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…

Magic of Myths - a miniseries by Corey Brotherson and Sergio Calvet 
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.
