I wish it hadn’t happened, I didn’t want to buy one, and I really hope that Dean had nothing to do with it, but yes, Headline in the UK released a printing of The Eyes of Darkness using the coronavirus as marketing copy on the cover.

Mostly images this week. If anyone can provide me with any information on Mr. Elswick I’d love to hear it. (At least there was a auction catalog for Art Stone.)

The other writing project was submitted to the editor so other than what will most likely be a final post-edit read-through that’s done so I was able to get back to this “little’ project.

There’s just two new items this week but the first one’s a previously unknown find.

Another great addition to the collection this week. A near mint copy of Energumen #8 containing “that essay.” I’d previously had a very clean PDF version, but having an original in the collection is something I’ve been hoping to accomplish for decades.

While I’ve got you here, I’d like to give you a heads-up that I’ve got a vacation coming up so please don’t expect any updates for the next two weeks. I might sneak one in, but no promises.
