Caliburn was a 4-issue mini-series created while I was at Radical Entertainment in the mid-'90's, at a time when they were looking to expand from just developing video games. The story is a more "super-hero" take on the return of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table. The destined return of Morgan Le Fey forces Merlin to travel to our time through a portal with the spirits of the Knights. The spirits find host bodies in the form of their nearest (and not necessarily the most worthy) modern-day decendants. It's a furious race between Merlin and Morgan to gather their forces in time for the bloody final battle. Unfortunately, the series was never published, as Radical realized that there isn't much money to made in the independant comics industry (well, duh!), and got out before they bled too much more money into the venture. All 4 issues were completed before the plug was pulled, but since it was my first crack at illustrating comics, the quality of art didn't really pick up until later in the series. The first issue is now posted! Woo hoo! Three more issues to go...D'oh!
