What started as a simple 13 page short story has expanded into a one-shot mini-comic, featuring pin-up art by Dani Kaulakis and Damon Haigh, and a map for the Realm of Xendria by cartographer Joseph Freistuhler. In short, this is an exciting project. At this stage Dani is getting started on the coloring of sequential pages. The illustration below is her Grizelda logo, which will be included in the mini-comic.

Artist Jason Lenox is collaborating on a two page short story for Gray Haven Publishing’s the Gathering Anthology’s Dark Special. Written by Tariq Moosa the two page horror tale will be lettered by David Paul and is set for a very appropriate release date of Fall 2012. This will be Ugli’s first collaboration with Gray Haven Publishing and we look forward to more.
