Fallen Arc Cover — Full Color Reveal!
🕑 Added 2021-12-14 16:00:06 +0000 UTCLast month, I teased this art by posting the black-and-white pencils for you to see. But now the fully-colored version is complete. The official launch of the new cover won't be until next month, but I wanted to share the final art with you right away!
Again, Adam DeKraker's awesome pencils have been colored by one of my favorite colorists, Alex Sollazzo, who has colored all of The Young Protectors covers, and I personally love how this one came together. I think Alex Sollazzo did a great job of creating an other-worldly feel while still keeping things beautiful.
For me, this is one of the most striking Young Protectors covers we've ever made.
What do you think?
As I mentioned in sneak preview post, Fallen is a return to action-romance for me. While there is romance in all my stories, Cory's adventure with Karthak is meant to be romance-focused, and just more of an all-around fun time. While there will be plenty of superhero action (it is written by me, after all), there's also going to be lots of kissing and comedy.
The cover is supposed to give a sense of that to new readers.
So, what do you think? Did we succeed? Would you be curious to turn the next page for a book with this cover?

(Getting this vertical image to work for a desktop shape took some creative thinking, but I actually really love how the desktop version looks. Be sure to check it out!)
High-Res Wallpapers
And, as always, there are high-res versions of this art for $10+ backers available via itch.io -- so if you'd like to see a version of these two pin-ups with over twice the resolution, you'll be able to do that here.
Thank you so much!
I hope you really like the art and the wallpapers I made for you. Please let me know in the comments below!
And thank you for your continued support. It's only because of you that I'm able to create special pieces of art like this that truly enhance the reading experience and help make sure our stories with gay heroes are just as good as, if not better than, what mainstream publishers are putting out there for the straight boys.
Thank you so much for making that possible.
More soon! :)
