'Journeys To Somewhere Else' - The Art Of John Avon Kickstarter Project
Celebrating 30 years of producing beautiful fantasy art for books, record covers and card games, John Avon, best known for his landscape art from 'Magic: the Gathering', is collecting his best works a into an artbook, 'Journeys to Somewhere Else'.
The book is planned as a perfect bound, large format square hardback, and will also include developmental and working sketches, thumbnail pieces and alternative versions. The book will also be available in two editions; a standard and a deluxe edition. The basic book will contain 180 pages but if they raise enough money this could be stretched all the way up to 238 pages and the Deluxe version will be stretched from 228 pages up to a whopping 276! The deluxe version will also have more images, extra sketches and a detailed chapter on how John works.
As an exclusive to this Kickstarter project, they have also been granted permission from Wizards of the Coast to use John's artwork from 'Magic: the Gathering', at least for this first volume. Meaning this could be a one-time opportunity to possess a definitive collection of John’s work from the hugely popular trading card game.
There are of course the obligatory Kickstarter add ons and special offers, with various upgrades on offer such as signed and dedicated books, plus they will be looking to add more to the campaign as it progresses, including smaller sketch bundles (single sketches), T-shirts and playmats too.
The project will only be funded if at least £24,000 is pledged by July 20 and if successful, they are looking at a February / March 2015 release.

Cool Art: 'Arya's List' by Andy Barbieri
I've been blogging about pop culture art on here for a while now, and being inspired by 'Game Of Thrones', both the TV show and the books (although I'm only around 3/4 through the audiobook for the second book - 'A Clash Of Kings'), I've designed this poster, just for fun, featuring Arya Stark's kill list and of course, her weapon of choice, Needle.
The print is available in two versions, the kill list from the TV series, and Arya's original list from the books too.
After getting some good feedback, my very first foray into the world of pop culture poster art is now available at my Society 6 store in varying sizes and also available as a T shirt on my Redbubble store too!

'John Carter, Warlord of Mars' Returns In All-New Digital WebComic
Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc., the company founded by the author to protect and maintain his original literary creations, has announced that Burroughs’ first adventure hero – John Carter of Mars – will star in an all-new weekly digital comic strip series written Roy Thomas and illustrated by Rodolfo Pérez Garcia, better known to Mexican comics fans as Pegaso.
The new series, to be called 'John Carter, Warlord of Mars', debuts on June 14, joining other classic Burroughs creations like Tarzan, Korak the Killer, Carson of Venus and Pellucidar as part of the Edgar Rice Burroughs Digital Comic Strip Service.
The new series, to be called 'John Carter, Warlord of Mars', debuts on June 14, joining other classic Burroughs creations like Tarzan, Korak the Killer, Carson of Venus and Pellucidar as part of the Edgar Rice Burroughs Digital Comic Strip Service.
And similarly to the other webcomics featured on the website, the first four episodes of the new 'John Carter Warlord of Mars' will be available at no charge. Fans can gain unlimited access to the entire site and all the strips from the beginning for only $1.99 per month or $21.99 per year.
The new webcomic comes soon after the reacquisition by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc. of comic book and comic strip rights that had been held by Walt Disney Pictures and its Marvel Entertainment subsidiary. The company is also pleased to announce a brand new license with Dynamite Entertainment which will return the original 'John Carter Warlord of Mars' to comic books! Dynamite will also republish other John Carter assets, going back as far as the early 1940s comic strips by John Coleman Burroughs, the son of Edgar Rice Burroughs.
The character of John Carter first appeared in 1912, captivating audiences when he debuted in Edgar Rice Burroughs’ first novel, serialized as 'Under the Moons of Mars' and later published as a complete novel, 'A Princess of Mars'. As many literary and cultural scholars attest, John Carter has served as a template for the litany of adventure heroes that followed, from Flash Gordon, Buck Rogers and Superman to Stars Wars and Avatar.
