Welcome to day six of Visions of Lorelei, a 13-part artistic event that celebrates the recent publication of Lorelei: Sects and the City, a Mature Readers graphic novel that reintroduces the soul-stealing succubus.
Sure, today he’s known for his creation Hellboy—the star of various comic book minsieries and a pair of movies directed by Guillermo Del Toro—but back in the day Mike Mignola was a mainstream artist who’d been wowing comic book fans with his work on DC’s Cosmic Odyssey and Batman: Gotham by Gaslight, and Marvel’s Rocket Raccoon and Alpha Flight. And when I stumbled across his table at an NY convention in the early ’90s, Mignola was immediately added to the list of artists I wanted to draw Lori. Thank goodness he agreed to do it!
