The new issue of FANTASY THEATER is here!

This issue features a brand-new LADY SPECTRA story by me and Steven Myers, guest-starring Steven's own reptilian brawler, LIZARD MAN! Together, our heroes face the menace of the sinister POISON IVORY, and the all-powerful GODMOTHER!

Also in this issue, GLORIANNA is caught in a war between the sword-wielding amazons of the OJHAL, and the hi-tech cult of SYONS! And what Glori learns in the heat of battle will shock her to her core!

Plus, as always, we have our extensive letters column and fan art section!

For this issue, I am (gasp!) sticking a toe into the 21st century, and making the book available through the online distributor INDY PLANET. Which means color covers and quality printing on nice paper, plus the ability to order via credit card. If this goes over well, look for future (and possibly past) issues to be turn up there as well. Be sure to let me know what you think!

Robert Sodaro over at Examiner.com gives a shout-out to Fantasy Theater in his comics column:

Thought I posted an announcement about this already, but apparently not. Me am dum.



FANTASY THEATER #22 is available, 32 pages of black-and-white, digest-sized goodness featuring Glorianna in "The Art of Murder" and Capella in "The Beast From Within!". Plus a hefty letters column and pin-ups from Brian Payne and the indefatigable Ronson Butler. Ordering info is in the sticky post at the top of this journal. Woo!

First page of a Capella story I'm working on for the next issue of Fantasy Theater:

The SPACE con is this weekend in Columbus. I'm not exhibiting this year, but I will be wandering around on Saturday with copies of the new Fantasy Theater.

Looking forward to seeing everyone!

My old buddy Ray Tomczak name-checks Fantasy Theater in his look back at the '90s indy comicbook scene:

Thanks, Ray!

A friend of mine once observed that artists throw artwork at me like women throwing their hotel room keys at Tom Jones. I'm pleased to say that trend continues:



Completely out of the blue, Rene Blansette (creator of the terrific comic THIEF) sent me a 7-page Starhoppers story that he wrote and drew. He did a great job on it, and you'll get to see it in FANTASY THEATER #19, hopefully early in the new year.
