“Understanding what is joyful about illustration is important. It’s important to create a thing that will delight an artist. […] You are, in many ways, writing a love letter intended to woo the artist into giving their best possible work to the job.”
— Warren Ellis on comic-book scripts (via WarrenEllis.com)

250 Free Pages of Infinite Kung Fu

Warren Ellis already mentioned this on his blog and I’m glad he did. I haven’t read a page of Infinite Kung Fu in a while. Kagan McLeod, creator of this stellar action-fantasy (with zombies!), is a talent to be fucking reckoned with. As soon as I laid eyes on Infinite Kung Fu, back in the early days of this century, I did everything I could to convince him to paint pictures for the Feng Shui RPG. Being a nice guy, he made time to paint a few covers (and do logo treatments!) for us. Great to work with, that Kagan McLeod.

I’m delighted to see that Infinite Kung Fu is getting the Top Shelf treatment in a 464-page graphic novel this summer. Brace yourselves, people.
