I haven't the faintest idea what this is about, other than the fact that it is an Erekose story. Anyone know anything about this? I'd like to try to find a copy. I've been interested in finding out more about it for a while. Is it a different story than the Erekose books (the eternal champion, silver warriors, dragon in the sword)?

It's a story I did with Howard Chaykin as a graphic novel. Completely different to anything published. There's some talk of reissuing it.
It would be nice if someone did.
It's pretty hard to find, these days.Pre-order or Buy my latest titles in Europe:
The Whispering Swarm: Book One of the Sanctuary of the White Friars - The Laughter of Carthage - Byzantium Endures - London Peculiar and Other Nonfiction
Doctor Who: The Coming of the Terraphiles - Kizuna: Fiction for Japan - Modem Times 2.0 - The Sunday Books - The Sundered Worlds
Pre-order or Buy my latest titles in the USA:
The Laughter of Carthage - Byzantium Endures - London Peculiar and Other Nonfiction - The Sunday Books - Doctor Who: The Coming of the Terraphiles

I think the avatar of the eternal champion in this graphic novel is called Clen of Clen Gar.I saw a copy once in the dim and murky past and have been searching all over to find one ever since.Can any kindly soul give us a run down of what happens in the story?I know it has to do with strange beasties weeing acidic rain( or was I hallucinating at the time I looked at a copy?). :oops:

I bought my copy several years ago in "Lambiek" comics shop in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. This book is one of the most beautiful comics I own (and I own a lot). All painted by Howard Chaykin in a rich textural style of Gustav Klimt - my favourite Viennesse art-nouveau painter. Definitely a must-have for all MM fans!

Nice one Krzysiek."Hey look everybody I've got a copy of 'The Swords of Heaven,The Flowers of Hell'.Very instructive...NOT! It is debateable wether Clen is Erekose, or as different as Elric is to Erekose.So how about being more informative instead of just advertising the graphic novel? A small outline of the events of the story would not go amiss, just to wet our apetites. :xLast edited by Rothgo; 04-21-2010, 02:28 PM.

Are THEY still out to get you Nathan?
Around every corner and in every room. THEY are everywhere watching, waiting and posting messages.
An electric pentagram or elder sign should help defend against THEIR infiltration into human society. :lol:
