Willowweep Manor Cover Reveal
Shaenon: At last I can reveal the cover of The Dire Days of Willowweep Manor, by the great Christopher Baldwin and me, out next year from Simon & Schuster! This is my first graphic novel and I can’t wait for everyone to read it. I’ll keep yinz updated!
Channing: My status has been upgraded to amped. Clearly, our heroine’s umbrella game is strong.
Yeah, I remember the teases. Looking forward to seeing it whole and in printed form.
It keeps the rain off and doubles as a melee weapon.
A bumpershoot of bunnies!
…doesn’t matter how cute they are,
when the eyes start to glow, it’s time to go.
Is this the thing where that fangirl gets sent to a magical world full of dark and brooding rich people conspIricies and stuff in that category or is that something else entirely?
That seems a reasonable summary of the book.
I’m really looking forward to this. I have to say that the cover induced flashbacks of the movie “Night of the Lepus” (on MST3K no doubt), featuring such immortal dialog as a sheriff proclaiming “There’s a herd of killer rabbits headed this way!”. The Willowweep rabbits look scarier.
True, but “Lepus” featured BOTH Chief Medical officers of the NCC-1701 Enterprise in the cast
That’s a very shiny butter knife.
Using a switchblade -against- killer rabbits? Next he’ll be breaking out a Glock.
You can’t go wrong with killer bunnies.
I dunno, depends if you’re talking about the movie monsters or the card game. Because I’m on board with them as movie monsters, but that card game is terrible.
Don’t underestimate killer bunnies. Those chisel teeth can take a chunk out of you. Had a cat that spent the rest of his life with a bald patch on top of his head after he tangled with an ornery one.
“That’s the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered rodent you ever set eyes on…Look, that rabbit’s got a vicious streak a mile wide! It’s a killer!…He’ll do you up a treat, mate…I’m warning you!…He’s got huge, sharp, er, he can leap about. Look at the bones!” —the Wizard Tim.
None of them are showing their teeth, though. Perhaps they just all want hugs.
Dream Team – I’m in!!
Is it just me, or does that guy look like Dave without glasses?
This reminds me of that time when Napoleon got chased by a thousand rabbits, which is an actual real thing that happened in the real world really. It did.
IIRC Nappy and his buddies started it …
Hooray!
