WELCOME!

Like the sign says, welcome to my personal roadside stop on the Information Superhighway. For a very long time, I kept promising fans, friends and family a place where they could stop by and check out what's new from me in the comic shop or what I've got in the works. Well, Storrieville was created to do just that.


WHAT'S NEW!

PerseusNot exactly new, but it looks like I missed the release of the paperback edition of PERSEUS: THE HUNT FOR MEDUSA'S HEAD! Apparently it was released in March of this year.

Perseus: The Hunt for Medusa's Head
Written by Paul D. Storrie
Illustrated by Thomas Yeates

Could a monster whose very look turns men to stone be a challenge too perilous even for the son of Zeus? King Polydectes has designs on Perseus’ mother, Danaë. But first the king must get rid of young Perseus once and for all. So Polydectes hatches a plan to trick the young hero into performing an impossible task—slay the snake-haired Gorgon monster Medusa, whose very look turns men to stone. Yet, as the son of Zeus, king of the gods, Perseus has many powerful allies. Will Perseus’ strength and courage—and the favor of the gods—allow him to do the impossible?


Available through Amazon.com or your local bookstore!


COMING UP!

William TellAccording to Amazon.com, the paperback edition of William Tell: One Against an Empire should be available by September. nother Graphic Myths & Legends title that I've written for Lerner Books is available now! Once again, I've been incredibly fortunate to have the story illustrated by the exceedingly talented Thomas Yeates.

William Tell: One against an Empire [A Swiss Legend]

Written by Paul D. Storrie
Illustrated by Thomas Yeates


He wanted nothing more than to live in peace, until a petty tyrant forced him into a cruel choice: Swiss hunter William Tell is famous for his great skill with a crossbow. A mild-mannered husband and father, he just wants a quiet life for his family. Yet his homeland’s brutal foreign rulers are making such an existence impossible. Then, one day, a ruthless official forces Tell into a terrible choice: Shoot an apple off his son’s head—or be killed along with his son. Will he accept this awful challenge?

It's available for pre-order through Amazon.com.




RoS LogoThose of you with long memories may recollect my very first comic, Robyn of Sherwood, about the adventures of the daughter of Robin and Marian taking up their fight 15 years after their deaths.  Along with my artistic partners, Rob Davis and Michael Larson, I've been working on a remastered edition to be collected in trade paperback fromat.  

Rob is doing most of the heavy lifting this time around, redrawing the book from Michael's layouts, but we're all working hard to do justice to what we all feel was a truly special book.  Because of that, we've brought in letterer extraordinaire Thom Zahler to create the new logo that you see here.  Big thanks to Thom for taking time out of his busy schedule writing, illustrating, lettering, coloring and marketing his own book, Love and Capes (the first six issues of which were collected by IDW -- 
Previews order code SEP084142E), to help us out with this!

Check back here or on my blog My Life on the P(ull)-List for updates on our progress, when the book will be released and by whom (we're still looking for a publisher at this point).


APPEARANCES

I'm currently planning to attend Comic-Con Intertantional: San Diego, Mid-Ohio Con, and Baltimore Comic-Con. I'll provide more details as my plans develop.

KEEP IN TOUCH

I've pretty much given up on my (ir)regular mailing list, Storrieville News, what with having a blog, MySpace page and ComicSpace page.

If you're looking for the latest and greatest news from me, or just my random thoughts about comics, writing and life in general, here's where you can find all that:

Twilight Crusade is a battle of Heaven vs Hell right here on our Earth, where the READERS will decide who wins! Each Twilight Crusade title can be enjoyed separately. One title will ship per week.

In the War between Heaven & Hell, one soldier has been on the front lines of the battleground since the very Beginning. But now the ultimate angel of destruction has grown weary of her never-ending tour of duty & the world it’s waged on. After millennia of killing, Gabriel has begun to realize that even an eternal warrior needs more out of life than dealing death.
