As you might have noticed (if you’ve taken a gander at the archive section lately), I’ve distilled this series so far into 3 main volumes.
Volume One, Demon Down the Corridor, features Rona’s first encounter with the “Cass Killer” (aka the Lady in the Hood), followed by her maiden voyage to Subrealm, and reunion (of sorts) with her father.
Volume Two, Sympathy in the Key of Oblivion, begins with the tale of Patrice and Helen, young lovers separated by the ultimate divide, and ends with the Lady’s final confrontation with the soul-snatching demon troll Belahm.
In between these first two volumes are the short stories Peace Time and The Disappeared.
(And where, you may ask, does Twilight Lady Sings the Blues fit into all this? That’s a question that will be answered in the very near future…)
Which brings us to Angel of Death… Nemesis of Decay, the third volume in the series. What’s in store? Well, a couple of long-running story threads (What is Eleanor’s plan? Will Rona get her body back?) are being brought to the fore. Jen will begin to feel the impact of events in the astral plane on her reality and life (you didn’t think she was gonna remain oblivious forever, didja?). The big question will be addressed: how, and why, did the Lady end up trapped in a Senserealm body?
Oh, and as always… demons. Of numerous shapes and guises. Some you’ll find familiar, others not so obvious…
I was recently interviewed by Lori Titus of Flashes in the Dark, a horror flash fiction site. Lori managed to coerce me into revealing, among other things, what Twilight Lady may actually be about, what inspires me to create, some of my plans for this comic…
… and what I really, truly think of the feedback I get from Twilight Lady readers.
If you think that means you… you’re probably right.
You can read the full interview here.
Oh, and Happy Valentine’s Day.
Nothing against wallpapers, pins, and all those other goodies typically offered to webcomic readers as donation incentives, but purist that I am, I figured… what could beat a brand-new, original comic story?
Thus, for a limited time only, readers donating $2 or more to Twilight Lady will get a digital (PDF) copy of Twilight Lady Sings the Blues, an ALL-NEW 10-page tale in which Jennifer Moon meets a blind bluesman haunted by the ghost of murder ballads past. A tale written by myself, and illustrated by Federico Zumel and James Taylor.
Yes… you read it right. A (gasp) physical, tangible Twilight Lady comic book, printed on… wait for it… paper!
One thing’s for sure… this would never happen in the astral plane.
Twilight Lady Sings the Blues is an ALL-NEW 10-page tale in which Jennifer Moon meets a blind bluesman haunted by the ghost of murder ballads past. Written by yours truly, with gorgeous traditional pencil-and-ink art by Federico Zumel and James Taylor, it is now available for sale from online comic store IndyPlanet.
So get your hands on this ancient artifact of a bygone Senserealm era while you can. Before ink is outlawed for good…

I was recently interviewed by a rather nice fellow named NJ Goodman, one of the folks behind the Xcentrikz webcomic site, where the interview has just been posted.
Among other startling revelations, I disclose the reason behind the setting for this comic, what I was like in high school, and what’s coming up in the very near future for the Lady in the Hood and her colorful supporting cast.
Though it’s not the first interview I’ve ever done, it is the first one I’ve done that’s about Twilight Lady. So go on over and witness history in the making!
