Our first Magnus Collection contributor promo comes from @everchased: a freelance and hobbyist artist who spends their days working with animals and their nights listening to podcasts of the horror variety. Easily spooked but enjoying the ride anyway. You can find them on twitter at bunbrain.

[“You see Jon, that has been an ongoing problem the last month. Now–” He held up his hand before Jon could retort. “I know you haven’t been here–”
“I was kidnapped. By mannequins.”
“–But during your absence your staff have gotten into a bad habit of hoarding office supplies.”]

We have an enigmatic entry coming straight from the desk of @jonnysims. No, that’s not the Real Jonny Sims – Contrary to popular belief, Tumblr user jonnysims is not actually the writer and actor Jonny Sims, but rather a 19 year old American fool who likes mysteries, podcasts, and sinister happenings. They love to draw, and are currently in the process of becoming an animator for real. The piece in full is something incredible, so check back in if you’d like to catch a copy of it!

Our Saturday Morning Promo is the work of @skylux-art, a talented young artist who takes their inspiration from Avatar the Last Airbender, Final Fantasy, Wuxia/Xiaxia, and presumably Simon Fairchild. Sky is presently in quarantine while their family deals with COVID-19 diagnoses, and has opened commissions up for interested parties. You can give a peek here: https://skylux-art.tumblr.com/post/614234007978295296
@lunagalemaster gives us a tantalizing peek into her upcoming wingfic with our Sunday Fiction Promo. Of herself, she writes: “Luna is a writer who thoroughly enjoys spooks and monster pursuits, especially of the cosmic horror variety. She has been writing fanfiction for half a decade and hopes to one day write fully original works. After finally finishing university. Hopefully.” Find her on AO3 and twitter with the same username, and give her work a click and a comment!
We’ve got a really lovely piece today from Cat Ivalee. Cat is a student artist studying animation. They spend all their free time drawing fictional characters, playing video games, and fantasizing about all their stories they should probably be committing to paper. This was their first zine experience, and they are very happy to have participated with so many amazing creators and in such a loving fandom. Social: tumblr @ival-eon, instagram @ivaleon_
The amount of detail in today’s promo by @rogue-kind leaves me breathless.
Roguekind is an amateur artist, collector of medical books and an overall “feral little man”. Lover of horror and the occult, and always ready to make religious symbolism more gay. Please find more of their work at roguekind on twitter!
Madeline C.B. is already known in our community for her incredible comics and compositions, and we’re delighted to get a new one for the Magnus Collection zine!
Currently a college student pursuing a degree in illustration, who loves doing comics on the side! Loves ominous lighting, glowing eyes, and cats.Social media: @chickpeamcb on twitter and instagram, and here!
@planetsandmagic sends in this incredible traditional art-inspired piece, which we can only show a fraction of at this time. Thematically following other pieces within their oeuvre, this is an important addition to the collection, and we’re delighted to be able to present it to you first in the Magnus Collection zine. Please follow them on twitter and instagram under the same username, and spread the word for the coming days: the Collection will soon be available for public viewing!
@klmmcqueen has a one-page comic that’s sure to delight for any fans of the Boneturner. Kait McQueen is a visual artist currently living in New Brunswick, Canada. Despite being educated in both English Literature and Graphic Design, she finds herself most at home drawing or painting. She relishes the challenge of creating art in response to non-visual works (music, podcasts, etc). In her spare time she enjoys reading, bugging her cats, and cycling. Find her on Instagram and twitter @klmmcqueen, and prepare yourselves: preorders for the Magnus Collection zine should go live August 22-23!
The full image from today’s preview by @fini-mun is too terrifying to display for public viewing, and I shudder at what they have unleashed into the world. From our fellow horror mod, the following description: “DEEBS IS A PERSON WHO EXISTS. DEEBS MANIFESTS ART FROM TIME TO TIME. DEEBS CAN BE FOUND AT fini-mun.tumblr.com, Catbeecache at DeviantArt, and @Deebsio on twitter. DEEBS WROTE THIS THEMSELF.”
“Cool guys don’t look at explosions,” they say, and there’s hardly anyone as stone cold as Gertrude Robinson. @slowopoke delivers up a cinematic-quality scene in today’s preview. Of herself, “I’m a 20 years old digital artist based in Italy. I focus on character design and comics. I attended art school for five years and I am currently majoring in oriental languages and civilizations, my aim is to become a tattoo artist or a translator.” Cheer her on with us as we make our way to our publishing date!
