Hugely excited to show off our Lazarus: Fallen #6 "Youngblood variant"!! Cover art by @comixbychloe.bsky.social, design by @mercuryeric.bsky.social. Featuring our Forever Carlyle alongside Vogue from Youngblood, it is truly "a Vogue cover" if you know what I mean
imagecomics.com/press-releas...

Lazarus: Fallen #6 "Youngblood variant" cover art by Chloe Brailsford in the style of a fashion magazine cover, depicting the purple-haired Youngblood team member Vogue in a low-cut, high-slit dress in her signature color of magenta cinched at the waist with a belt and thigh-high tight-squeezing boots, with her hands on her hips and her head defiantly thrown back, and the Lazarus Forever Carlyle in skintight black leather pants with two loose studded hip-hugging belts, a black leather jacket with a giant zipper-pull worn over a skintight sheer top, a black choker collar reading CARLYLE in metallic letters, and a little black leather cap at a rakish ankle, with her sword on her back, and she's pulling on black leather gloves. Cover copy reads: TIMELESS LOOKS, LETHAL CHIC. YOUNGBLOOD STUNNER VOGUE & THE LAZARUS FOREVER CARLYLE. PHOTOGRAPHED BY CHLOE BRAILSFORD.

A modular space station, built in Blender - a mass of connected cylindrical modules, some for research, some for habitation, and some for storage. Solar panels shine gold in the background. Mechanical arms, used for manoeuvring cargo, protrude at the rear and below. In the background a pale blue planet. Text reads: Gateway Station - In Orbit Around Ross 128B.

In all seriousness, publishers are going to have to figure out how to market books in the post-social-media landscape. That should be an implicit part of their job. What authors/artists can do on their own is increasingly limited and siloed.
