The Spires is my take on the fantasy genre. For those who are interested in scripts, you can see the script for this page here.

For everyone else, just enjoy the terrific artwork by Fabrizio Pacitti and the wonderful colours by Bill Key!

Oh - and for anyone who's interested in lettering … this page was a real challenge! In fact two other guys had a stab at it before I decided to do it myself. The main problems were that (a) there was just too much damn dialogue that I didn't want to cut (a common failing of mine!) and (b) putting the dialogue for Panel 2 into the obvious space (i.e. down where the characters are) meant that the reader would tend to read Panel 3 before Panel 2. Anyway, I eventually came up with something that I think works!

Reminder: If you're enjoying the BVC Scrap Book, don't forget to look in on our main comic Shades.
