~~ Click on the image for biggie ~~Hello Pulp Friends,
After my variant covers for
HELLBOY THE FURY #1 and
BPRD MONSTERS #1, it's time to reveal my third variant cover I did for Mike Mignola's wonderful creations.
This time it's the turn of
BALTIMORE, the character created by
Mike Mignola and
Christopher Golden in novel format and then extended (luckily for us) to the comibook format.
As for the previous titles, I was asked to draw a variant cover for issue 1 (only the first issues will get these variants), and I couldn't be happier to play with yet another cool (and a favorite of mine) character. Throw in some demonic possessed monastery, evil nuns, and cursed bells and you get all the ingredients for a FUN story (and cover) :)
Hope you guys dig it.
One more Mignola-related cover to reveal, but for that we have to wait next month ;)
Cheers,
Francesco
Baltimore ~ The Curse Bells #1 (Francesco Francavilla Variant cover)
Monsters are overrunning Europe, and Baltimore, the only one who can put an end to these horrors, must find and kill Haigus, the vampire responsible for this chaos. Following reports that Haigus is holed up in a cloister, Baltimore finds a haven full of death and black magic, and the creature at the heart of his obsession!
