In pursuit of a lost tome of forbidden knowledge, Vampirella has been drawn from Russia to the Armenia/Turkey border -- and Ani, the Ghost City of 1,001 Churches. Once, the seat of power that rivaled Constantinople, Ani is now a crumbling ruin. And somewhere, in the skeleton of that dead city, lurks the last dark hope of an ancient enemy...

Red Sonja's travels lead her to Kheshatta--the fabled City of Magicians in the dust-choked heart of Stygia--searching for a means to locate and destroy an ancient weapon that carries a terrible price. But there are enemies a-plenty in her path, all intent on ending Sonja's saga in a storm of sand and blood.

New Downloads available

I've thrown some new/revised vector art up in the Downloads section, for my graphically-inclined readers. 

 

A few years ago, I posted up a bunch of vector art files I'd developed for various personal and commercial projects; in the intervening time, I've refined, updated, revised and added to that collection. 

 

So, I figured it was high time that I threw out the old and put the new (and, in my opinion, much better) stuff up there. (I've also pulled down some other stuff that has outlived its shelf life.) 

 

Here's a link to the downloads; enjoy!

Flash Gordon: Zeitgeist #1 "commentary track" on CBR...

Flash Gordon art by Alex Ross.

I was recently asked to provide a "commentary track" for Flash Gordon: Zeitgeist #1, which is now available in its entirety on Comic Book Resources. 

 

Basically, it's just some annotations—where I got some of the ideas, why I made some of the choices I made, and so on. 

 

It is also a great way to check it out, if you've been on the fence. 

 

Here's the link; and if you are enjoying the series, please pass on the link as far and wide as possible. Thanks!

Flash Gordon: Zeitgeist #2 in stores this week

The second issue of the Flash Gordon serial I'm writing for Dynamite Entertainment hits store shelves this Wednesday, January 4, 2012. 

 

FLASH GORDON: ZEITGEIST #2

Written by: Eric Trautmann (from concepts by Alex Raymond and Alex Ross)

Art by: Daniel Indro

Covers by: Alex Ross, Francesco Francavilla, Paul Renaud

 

After crashlanding an experimental transdimensional spacecraft on the surface of a hostile alien world, Flash Gordon, Dale Arden and Dr. Hans Zarkov come face-to-face with Ming the Merciless. Driven by an unquenchable thirst for conquest, Ming has plans for the "pathetic Earthlings": death for Flash in Mongo's arena, brain-stripping for the brilliant Dr. Zarkov, and a vile wedding ceremony for Dale... not to mention the destruction of Earth. Can even Flash Gordon save us?
