A magical glow

Working on a comic book gives you a strange sense of multiple realities. I'm writing the first part of Mirabilis issue #12. Meanwhile Leo, fresh back from cycling around Norway, is inking the middle of #10. Mike Toris has just finished flatting #9. And before heading off on vacation, Nikos just had time to complete the coloring on his very first new Mirabilis page since he took time out to remaster the Thor Omnibus featuring Walt Simonson's standout run on that book. (Yeah, we're a little overawed about that, but fortunately Nikos and Mike aren't the sort to get big-headed.)

There's a big temptation to start showing off these glorious pages as they arrive back from Athens, but that would spoil the surprise. So here's one little peek at an awestruck London audience getting their first up close and personal experience of how the green comet will be changing their lives in Mirabilis: Spring.
