Click for full imageLiz’s Art Direction: Draw some buxom witch types in tight revealing outfits having a tea party. Throw in a weird muscle bound werewolf creature for good measure and have them all sit / stand around drinking tea out of some china cups. That should do it. Everyone reads these for the stories anyway.

Thanks to Liz and Simon who both sent this in!

“Give one witch fangs” – that is quite clearly a vampire and not a witch. I would have thought with the mind-control thing that vampires have she doesn’t have to dress quite as skimpily to get men to dance to her tune.
Also no mention of the fairy – I suppose that is fair enough as the witch obviously has as well. There is no little cup (or even a big one) for the fairy to drink out of.

Yea, removed the fangs thing. No offense to Liz, I didn’t understand it either.
Anyway back to boob tea party puns.

I love the fairy! It looks to me as though the werewolf creature has just had a really good fairyish idea. Ping!

‘Yeah, unusually for a wolf I have opposable thumbs.’

The Faerie is a nice touch! She brings so much to the table.

Never mind all that! Where can I get a copy of Chicks In Chainmail??? The cover for that virtually draws itself.

Ahh, there we go [http://img1.fantasticfiction.co.uk/images/t0/t1196.jpg]. Bit disappointing, actually, featuring as it does only one chick in chainmail.

James> We already have it actually! http://www.goodshowsir.co.uk/2009/08/chicks-and-wow/
I think the wolfman has taken the vampire women out on a nice date. That witch is their waitress and the fairy their… whatever. I like to think they are arguing too.

You dawg!
Biscuits any good?

SI> Not quite. You have Chicks And Chained Males. Subtle but important distinction there. But at least the chick quotient is 100% greater.

The vampire lady has one white leg and one black. She is obviously a punctual vamp, as she is wearing a wristwatch.
The witchy woman seems to lift the teapot with her belt buckle.
While the wolfy thing seems to have left a deposit under his chair. In 2009.

I didn’t even think of the other fem to be a vamp…was too stunned by the buxomness of the girls and the leering grin on the wolf. Also, Witch #1′s hat looks very like Solomon Kane’s, tbh – http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hh4wCWSJ6w4/Sg-VEjTe-ZI/AAAAAAAABik/buxzxJSvofU/s320/solomon-kane-rain-hat.jpg

James> Ah fair enough! See the word play was almost too much for me to comprehend before lunch
“Don’t move wolf man, there’s one of those darn pixies above ya. I’ll swat it with me wand!”

Well, Esther Friesner does write comedic SF/fantasy, so I think the cover is appropriate.

that poor kitty cat looks terrifed

Guys, the werewolf is female. I can clearly see some boob. This is an all-female tea party, with the possible exception of the cat.
June 21st, 2010 at 1:30 pm
I’m not sold on the boob.
June 28th, 2010 at 3:39 pm
@Tom; More of a leg man? The vampires single leg isn’t too bad, but i doubt she’s selling it since she only has the one.

It is a cheesy cover. That’s the point for this series

cover art is by Clyde Caldwell… that swirly thing is his sig

A typical scene from any Harry Potter fan convention.

Esmerelda always insisted on using MAGIC to pour the tea even though by the time the spell was prepared and cast the tea was invariably cold and Remus was fairly panting with impatience. But whenever anyone had the temerity to suggest they just serve tea in a normal fashion, she always insisted it was the principle of the thing. “After all, we ARE witches, dear!”
“Actually,” her sister would retort, “I’m more of a vampire.” The fairy would just sigh and roll her eyes.
