Comics is a weird process. Lots of writing and planning, then nothing happens and all is quiet while the artist takes over and just does their thing (obviously, a great deal of things are happening for the artist, but whatever.) And then BAM! Lots of activity!

In the run up to C2E2 we’ll be showing everyone pages-in-progress from the formidable Jason Strutz. For now… the COVER! This poster will be available at C2E2 next week, and both artist and writer will be there with copies of The Cask of Amontillado to sign!

HOUSE OF MONTRESOR is a new graphic novel by writer Enrica Jang (AZTECA, Angel with a Bullet), with art by Jason Strutz (The Order of Dagonet,) and a sequel to Edgar Allan Poe’s gothic short story, “Cask of Amontillado.” THE HOUSE OF MONTRESOR re-imagines Poe’s classic tale, expanding and continuing the tale of vendetta that the villainous Montresor only hints at, fifty years after committing the perfect crime. After all, murder is only perfect when everyone knows you got away with it… Coming soon from Red Stylo Media!
