  1. That was great art by Jerry Grandenetti and lyrical writing by T. Casey Brennan.

    Grandenetti really went to town especially on the serpent & its unique speech... though what a weird mishmash of ages with the cavemen versus the frock-dressed village girl. Still, it was well-drawn & presented.

    Swinging back to Brennan, it strikes me that rather than taking Poe as his starting point for weird fiction he's taken Hawthorne... in this story Hawthorne by way of Conan the Barbarian somehow, but still...
