King of RPGs is #1 in the “manga” category on amazon.com as I type this. Coincidentally, my good friend Shaenon Garrity, creator of Skin Horse and Narbonic, drew this awesome pinup featuring several of the King of RPGs characters. Shaenon, you’re awesome! Thank you!
Uwaaaaahh! The incredible Andy Ristaino, creator of The Babysitter, Life of a Fetus and many other excellent and unbelievably detailed comics, was awesome enough to draw a guest art piece which will appear in King of RPGs v.1!
Andy is an excellent artist who I’ve known since the late ’90s. His theremin/synthesizer/drums band shygrape, with Liz Walsh and others, is also really good, and he is currently working on a story which will appear in the next issue of Image’s Popgun anthology, among a million other things in his workaholic schedule. I owe him my right arm… at least, a few fingers. Please check out his gorgeous King of RPGs/Frank Frazetta tribute which will appear in full black-and-white on delicious real paper in the final graphic novel version.
