While I'm getting these orders ready, y'all better get ready.

Three diagonal stripes rise to the right on a black background. The top one is yellow and has a Black male superhero in a grayish costume with a bird like helmet. The middle one is orange and a native Mexican descent woman looks out at us. Her hair is in two braids and she's wearing a traditional floral top. The bottom stripe is blue and has a female looking hologram in front of computer screens. To the right, in front stands a sharply dressed Black woman with an afro puff. She holds a gun in one hand and a reactor's business card in the other. Text: Petoria Walker realtor at large

But only by a month! Apologies to everyone who's been looking forward to it. But you won't have long to wait. You'll be inundated in fantasy comics very soon.

The cover of the comic anthology Midnight Mystics. In a dark ominous cave three Black women adventurers walk along while a huge spider lurks behind them. The woman closest to the viewer is dressed like a warrior with a west African styled sword and purple, brown, and red outfit. She holds a lit torch. The woman in the middle is very short, wielding a large ornate axe and wearing furs and leathers. The woman to the rear is an elf, holding a glowing staff and in a blue gown with a collar that looks vaguely Egyptian. On the ceiling behind them the spider is brown and tarantula-like. The light shines off its many eyes.

I started working on my variant cover for the anthology as a relaxer the other night. I would have picked this concept but I didn't want people to think the book would be completely comedic.
