Original Artwork Available here!
Hello everyone out there
is cobwebsite-land! It's been an enormously long time since
I've added anything now, but there is an announcement to make
as Neverwhere is all finished and graphic noveled up and that
it that.
There is a complete list of
original artwork from this project here at this very location!
We're still missing episode
9, but the rest of it's here, apart from the stuff that has
been sold so far.
The most expensive pages are
the three double page spreads at £400 per spread. Everything
else is from £50 to £150 depending on how long
it took me to do, the characters drawn etc. It's the largest
body of work I have ever done on a single project, and I very
much enjoyed working on our adaptation of Mr Gaiman's fabulous
novel - Mike Carey did his usual wonderful job and was a joy
to collaborate with.
Jon Vankin was great fun too,
and I do have to thank Mr Tony Luke for his computer wizardry
and assistance with the covers - only No 6 was done without
his help, and even then he scanned it in and sent it off over
the airways for me when it was deadline.
Also Tanya and Richard Horie
did my best colours so far, and the whole thing looks, well,
pretty sweet. I hope you enjoy the results twice as much as
I enjoyed working on it (late nights and stress and everything
you see) and that my versions of well-loved characters aren't
so completely disparate to your own mental images of them
that it winds you up completely and sends you into a murderous
drug fuelled spree of satanic mayhem, lasting several weeks
and eventually being responsible for the deaths of many law-abiding
citizens of whatever country you live in.
Should you decide to purchase
any of these pages please add five pounds for postage - you
can pay by paypal or send a cheque to glenn Fabry studios,
116 Rodmell avenue, Saltdean, Brighton, east SUSSEX, UK BN2
8PJ. When the funds clear in my account I'll send your page(s)
off in a nice chunky cardboard tube to the required address
and great joy may they bring you.
Other news - episode #7 of
the Garth Ennis / Chris Sprouse 'The Midnighter' from Wildstorm
is drawn by me, should be out in a few months - a touching
gay samurai epic, with lots of killing!
I'm now working on 'Greatest
Hits' a six part graphic novel-in-waiting by David Tischman,
edited by Shelly Bond at vertigo. It's a sixties rock and
roll superhero panorama, it's great fun and I'm just finishing
issue one as we speak. It's shaping up very nicely.
Here is a preview of the first
cover....
No-ones keeping me in the
loop about the Preacher HBO series, but it does seem that
everyone is pretty serious about it and I've got my fingers
crossed for the entire project.
Quite a while back a gentleman
from HBO emailed me about it since Garth and Steve weren't
available via the net, and I phoned his number and we had
a chat about how much better Preacher would look as a TV series
rather than a movie or three movies. After we spoke the Soprano's
were on TV and there was his name on the credits - I just
supplied him with the telephone numbers and asked him not
to forget me in case they needed any paintings which god knows
if they will. That really is the extent of my insider knowledge
about the whole affair. I suppose I could always give Garth
a shout and I'll let you know if I hear any more.
Okay. I'll leave it to you
know - whatever IT is!! Hope it's good!!
Love Glenn
