“The Counterfet” first publication

This post is about busy bees. Eric is very busy painting bees. That’s because he’s busting his back to get 9 special-edition pages of “The Counterfet” churned out by mid July for our segment in Seven Stories Press’ anthology: The Graphic Canon.  The segment for this anthology will be from the beginning of the first chapter (but not the very beginning) and will depict the Witch in conversation with Archimage (the Devil) as they discuss the origins of False Flora (or False Florimell for the purists).  As Eric is cranking out beautiful paintings (he informs me that he’s quite sick of painting bees, but almost done with them), I’m building version 3 of the Counterfet website.  That means I get to do all kinds of fun stuff like figure out how to make my own WordPress theme.  I’d love to show off more paintings, but don’t want to ruin the surprise.  I don’t have a date for the anthology’s release, but I’m guessing it will be out late in 2011 / early 2012.
