"...locals allegedly began to find hundreds of cleanly skinned, half-eaten carcasses of rabbits hanging from the trees in the surrounding areas."
Find out more about the real Bunny Man of Virginia here and oh yeah, Happy belated Easter.

Featured Creature: Reunion at the Merrimon Library Part IX, Deidre's Warning
Alan fought to open his eyes. He was warm and comfortable and sedated within ease. He felt as though his brain were wrapped tight in a thick comforter. There was a warm and gentle pressure against his palm. He woke to someone holding his hand. When he finally got his eyes to open he struggled to focus on the figure at his side. It was Deidre. He squinted into wakefulness and offered a weak smile. Deidre smiled back.
"Hi."
"Hi yourself." She leaned in closer and rested her other hand on his forearm. They sat silently for a moment and enjoyed a quiet reunion. They both tried to hold back, but soon there were tears. They held on to each other in the silence for a long while.
"I came as quickly as I could." Her eyes were glassy. He could tell she had not slept in some time.
"How long have I been out?"
"Two days."
"Hi."
"Hi yourself." She leaned in closer and rested her other hand on his forearm. They sat silently for a moment and enjoyed a quiet reunion. They both tried to hold back, but soon there were tears. They held on to each other in the silence for a long while.

Saturday Sketch: Limbo Colossus
Here is another of the set from the Marvel Comics Magik limited series. To me, this was one of the most horrific elements of the origin of Magik. Frightened and lost, young Illyana Rasputin comes face to face with the corpse of her older brother Peter Rasputin, the X-men's Colossus. Killed by the demon S'ym, his body was left imbedded in the walls of Belasco's fortress.

Featured Creature: Reunion at the Merrimon Library Part VIII, The Blue Chasm
The large truck careened toward Alan. It crushed the bookshelves and scattered books into the air as it plowed forward. The edge of a shelf hit one of the smaller jellyfish and the thing exploded in a burst of slimy luminescence. He turned quickly and pushed hard with his legs. The last thing he saw as he leapt away was the creature entwined with Tim's body pressed flat against the truck's front end. He jumped.
The world twisted around him and a lightning bolt of pain shot up his
leg. The library became a blur as Alan was tossed about. He landed hard against a shelf and it fell to the ground. The truck front
flattened against the wall with a metallic grinding thud. There was a bright flash of bluish light and the entire building shook violently.

Saturday Sketch: Limbo Shadowcat
Here we are continuing the set of the Marvel Comics characters in the Magik limited series. This is the Shadowcat who was left behind in Limbo and initially saves Illyana Raputin from Belasco, but in the end meets a terrible fate. I placed her in the landscape where we see her most in the limited series, the warped desert wastelands of Limbo.

Exhumed: The Storm
Here we have an image of an incoming storm. With the color reinvestigation I wanted to try to capture the weight and ominousness of an approaching storm. I also tried to simulate the odd twilight that accompanies such storms. With such heavy cloud cover it becomes neither night nor day, but instead some dim other light.
