Tori's Inked

Did y'all hear that Tori Amos is releasing a massive comic book anthology in July wherein various artists created imagery to accompany a slew of her songs? Read about it right here.

I can't remember where I read this news over the weekend - is it mentioned in the new issue of EW? - but I remarked upon it with happiness to the boyfriend, and I don't believe I've ever seen a man cringe so.... exuberantly... in all of my life. He's not a Tori fan, see. Personally, I can't wait.

Here are a couple of pages from the book; the first is for the song "Leather" and the second is for the song "Past The Mission" -

You can see a few more pages at that link. The collection, entitled Comic Book Tattoo, is almost 500 pages long (!) and is out on July 25th. Just in time for my birthday, kiddies!

My boyfriend, a huge comic book fan, has been getting me back up to speed on what the cool kids are reading this year. Although he's not a Tori fan, he's excited by the different artists involved. And I'm just excited it's TORI!

YES!!!

There are only a handful of artists who could get me to buy a huge comic-book based on their songs. My girl Tori is one.
