A masterwork from a modern master arrives: STUART IMMONEN / EMPRESS original art drops tomorrow, Friday, April 21st, at 9AM PDT/12PM EDT!

Over the past two plus years, Stuart has made 820 pieces of his original art available through us...and 780 have sold. An astounding 95% sell-through rate! Tomorrow, we will have art from what may very well be Stuart's career-best work: The sci-fi saga, EMPRESS.

EMPRESS is not only Stuart's first creator-owned work, but also the beginning of his partnership with a key collaborator, writer Mark Millar. For the first time, all the world-building belongs to Stuart. The characters, the tech, the environments...100% Stuart. Combined with his renowned storytelling and layouts, and you have Stuart's STAR WARS.

(Read more about EMPRESS in Stuart's extensive The Comics Journal interview. Note that no less than TCJ gives EMPRESS an all-out rave review!)

For fans of Stuart and EMPRESS, be sure to check out his latest creator-owned comic, GRASS OF PARNASSUS. Available now for free on Webtoons! Reformatted for online reading, it's a whole new experience, even if you've already gotten the book. Fingers crossed, we'll have GoP art later this year!

Set you alarm and click the UPDATES tab at the drop to see all EMPRESS pages at once. Write me for time payment plan approval prior to the drop. Thanks everyone, see you tomorrow!
