anneclr300Every now and then it’s nice to change the artwork up on the walls, and while picking out the winners to hang around for the next couple of months or so, I came across some pages from Penny Farthing Press’s Anne Steelyard.

And while looking around for more on Anne, I came across the blog for artist Bill Galvan. He has posted a couple of tryout pages he did for the book. I thought that was very nice of him, it gives us fans the chance to see the differences and note ‘what might have been’. 

Here are some pages of Mr. Galvan’s Anne (Click for a much larger image):

anneclr300I wrote before about what a great find Penny-Farthing Press was. Top shelf quality, and on sale which was nice. Moby does not buy too many comics nowadays, mostly art, and that is how I found Anne Steelyard and the Garden of Emptiness.

Anne Steelyard is sort of a female Indiana Jones type, but is based loosely on a real person. It has everything you could want in a story, and I would be shocked if a movie does not get made from this source material someday. Seriously, it has action, adventure, drama,  adventure, romance,…and more adventure.

The story was penned by Barbara Hambly and has won many awards and been widely reviewed, so I am not going to bother doing anything in depth here. Barbara did a great interview with comicbookresources, and that should do if you need more on the story itself. Mostly just want write about the art, the artist, and give readers a good idea of why they should give Anne Steelyard a chance.

pfpress.comAnne Steelyard - Act 1Just a quick note about a great sale from a great company. 

Right now you can get single issues of most titles directly from Penny Farthing Press starting at $0.69, and graphic novels at under $4 or $5, just an incredible deal. Moby has become a fan of PFPress by way of collecting original art from one of their series, Anne Steelyard.

Captain Gravity - Power of the Vril - Issue 4

Being something of a original comic art collector I was of course interested when I saw that there was a preview issue of Anne Steelyard with tryout page samples out there. However, the only copy I could find at the usual online stores was on Ebay for $15! Well, a quick search later and I found that PFPress had them in their own company store, and they were marked down, from a buck a piece to $0.25! What a deal, eh? But then as I kept browsing, I saw they had plenty more great books, and it was all on sale. Continue reading »
