Tom Noir’s Art Direction: Okay, this is a Celtic fantasy, so obviously we want a buff surfer dude who is spaced out of his gourd.  What?  I dunno, put him in a kilt or something.  You figure it out, that’s what you’re paid for isn’t it?  Anyhow, magic it up.  Slap a shiny silver border on with the author’s name in a clashing red font to distract suspicious readers.  Anyhoo, I gotta jet, it’s 4:20.
Published 1993

Many thanks to Tom!

Everyone is into wizards these days. Your friends, that strange shopkeeper next door who just stares at you, even your mother! Sorry… but who wouldn’t appreciate a mullet wielding wizard with a sexy open ripped shirt, kneeling next to a dragon in the midst of a spell? Teenagers? Well… mmm… uh… uh oh.

Magical orb, merlin apparition, surprised expression, terrible haircuts, horrific blue robe, cheesy green and gold crest, nerd throne, chains leading to nowhere, potions, books…. huh? Oh I’m just saying random words… think you could get it all in there?
