"A strange dreamlike intrigue"

"Mirabilis the magnificent" - that's what no less an authority than Lew Stringer said on his blog last week. Well, of course you wouldn't expect me and Leo to argue with that. Quite aside from Lew's overall assessment of the strip, he says some very perceptive things in a beautifully written critique that -- but why am I gassing on? You ought to pop over there right now and read it for yourself. Go on, shoo.

Still here? Oh, you want to know about that picture... All I'm saying is that Gus is away with the fairies in Mirabilis #10, on Leo's Wacom tablet for inking right now.

A nice big purr from Shadowcat

There's a great review of Mirabilis #1 over on cool comics site Kitty's Pryde. Four-and-a-half stars and we didn't even have to leave a brown envelope stuffed with cash behind the water pipes. "Almost musical," is their judgment on the script, "with a nice storytelling feel." Heap it on, guys, I can take it. Better not repeat what they have to say about Leo's artwork as it'll only make him big-headed.
