MEMORY LANE
Art Book Update + Cover Story + Convention
We’ve been quietly working on something special behind the scenes — and it’s time to share a little more. Mike is working on a secret project and we've been spending our mornings working on an art book! I didn’t want to talk about it until we had more of it done and I think we are at a good place.
We have a few months before we can officially announce the book but we will be partnering with a publisher and be making it available via crowdfunding this summer. This hardcover, large-format book will be packed with artwork.
Want to be the first to know when it launches?
COVER STORY
Every week leading up to the book launch, we’ll post:
The original cover preliminaries
A short story or memory from Mike
A bonus sketchbook snippet or alternate concept
We’re loving digging through the archives, and Mike’s stories are gold. If you’re into process, creativity, and comics history — this is for you.
May The 4th
We’re celebrating with a look at Mike’s Darth Vader & Star Wars covers — plus I found a sketchbook page.
Any of these concepts you wish had been turned into full covers? Let us know!
ON THE ROAD
Mike’s headed to Moncton, New Brunswick for the East Coast Comic Expo – June 13–14!
Got recommendations for food, sights, or comics spots? Send ‘em our way!
ON THE STANDS

Thanks for reading along — next week, we’ll have more to share.
Until next time!

I've backed the Clover Press Marvel Art books and in their survey asking who I want to see a book from the answer is all caps MIKE DEL MUNDO. Excited to see who you are working with and get a nice book on my shelf.
I would to see that Star Wars #1 Museum Variant as a print!
