I’m thrilled to reveal three gorgeous, fully-colored variant covers for Bound By Words. We still have one more to share in the coming days, so make sure to follow the campaign if you haven't yet!

The first is a Sailor Moon homage cover by Fell Hound. Madeline and Siora share a famous pose with Neptune and Uranus and Fell Hound’s render adds a lovely softness to their magical girl vibes.

Cover Artist - Fell Hound


The second is an absolutely stunning cover by Stacey Lee. Thank you for your votes on this one!

Hey everyone!

We're less than two weeks away from launch and I wanted to share with you an update on the variant cover poll from a few weeks ago!

Stacey Lee Cover
After the voting completed, Stacey has been working on finishing the color, just a bit more to go on pencils/inks and then on to coloring.
 

In the coming days, we'll also be announcing the rest of our cover artists. We've got an extremely talented team of artists for the covers and everything we've seen so far has been absolutely gorgeous! Stay on the lookout!
