Check out the nice reviews for Gothic Classics Vol. 14

Comics Worth Reading
"This anthology is an overview of a timeless story type, and it’s a lot more fun than reading dusty old books."

Publisher's Weekly
"Mystery, terror, imprisonment, death: the great gothic themes are explored in these five well-chosen, seminal tales."

Austenblog Review
"Gothic Classics delivers a fine set of illustrated adaptations. Each classic work has been charmingly brought to life while preserving the spirit of its source. As a whole, the collection of stories is satisfying and memorable — and at their best when read in order. Enjoy!"

Broken Frontier
"This is a great set of selections from a long list of likely candidates, impressive in its own right, but editor Tom Pomplun really outdid himself in selecting the illustrators."

Seqart.Research and Literary Org.
"Northanger Abbey, adapted by Trina Robbins and Anne Timmons. That's a team that's worked together for quite some time, and it shows.... It's Austen's wit that towers above all, and I was surprised at how well it translated into comics form."


Lots of traffic on the Mollard's Jane Austen Community

A couple of years ago I did an illustration for GRAPHIC CLASSICS. I just recently just found that Graphic Classics: Robert Louis Stevenson has been nominated for an award by
The International Horror Guild for Best Illustrated Narrative produced in 2004.

Newsarama
has an article about a new book by Dark Horse coming out in December. Trina and I will have a story published in this anthology.
Lots of female creators, lots of opinions.

Been working with Illustrator the past month. I find this program to be so challenging! Once I get to the point where it starts all coming together, then that's when I feel some real instant gratification. The Cheetah took a while. I "inked" in Illustrator and colored her in Photoshop.
I am right in the middle of a (ink to paper) inking project. It's for an educational graphic novel. Hopefully, I'll get some pics up for that soon.
