Guys, thank you very much for the opinions that you gave on a previous poll for Mytho's first volume's cover. In the end we had to go for something a bit different, but we still incorporated some kind of symmetry, which seemed to work well in the first version that most of you voted for!
So, without further ado, here is the final version of our cover, approved by our editor:






I'm honestly completely in love with it *_____*

... I've just realized that you're not actually sevenswells, whom I thought I was replying to. Um. That's awkward of me. Hi!

But yeah, seriously, I'll be coming back to France every few weekends, so I'll be able to catch it at some Fnac somewhere at some point; it's just, well. Getting a book made by someone I know via Amazon isn't quite the same as actually finding it in a store, y'know?

Doesn't matter my dear, I'm pretty sure we have already met at sevenswells' and that you are one of my favourite person in the world for writing one of my favourite fics ever about BNF John and Sherlock. Anyhow, my fault for highjacking someone's LJ by responding.

Yeah I know finding it in the store is always so incredible and you can't stop squeeing and you try to push it a little forward in the store so that more people can look at it and finally you end up doing the promotional pitch to a total stranger so that they buy it.

(Love your icon btw)

Oh hey, I actually spent a full metro trip with you and didn't even recognize your username, go me. How are you! Is teaching treating you any better than the last time I saw you?

I knoooow. There's something quite thrilling to holding the book in your hands and watching people glance at what you're reading or pick it up too and you're quietly simmering with glee on behalf of the author.

... I have too many friends/acquaintances in the BD industry, clearly.

(Ty! Pepperpepper, ain't she lovely ♥)

Doesn't matter my dear I only recognise you because I'm in love with The theory of narrative casuality and have a stalkerish side to me.

Teaching is better since it's nearly the holidays but things are still grim looking for french education.

You can never have too many friends who do comics.

(My wife is in love with Pepper and I share the feeling so yay Pepper.)

(bas les masques, il s'agit en fait de Diane qui t'a servi de garde du corps avec sa femme Christelle lors d'un périlleux trajet en métro en rentrant d'une soirée British chez moi)

Tout ça pour dire que le bouquin ne sort pas avant le 3 octobre, effectivement -- hélas! Là je bosse sur le tome 2, ça permettra de nous occuper la dessinatrice et moi, pour éviter de se ronger le frein en attendant la sortie du tome 1 X/

Les emmerdes administratives sont finites alors? C'est confirmé l'Angleterre? Félicitations! Je suis vachement contente pour toi, tu vas te la donner grave!!

WELL OF COURSE. J'apprécie le sarcasme de ta réponse, btw. Je connaissais pas le quartier, moi! :(( Elles étaient de charmantes gardes du corps, de plus, donc je préfère, merci.

Ahhh ma belle je suis tellement contente pour toi — ça doit être quelque chose de voir tes oeuvres dans les magasins. Cette couve a l'air tellement professionelle, c'en est fascinant.

Preeeeesque, mais je suis définitivement inscrite à King's, donc même s'il y a encore du bordel administratif au niveau des habitations/bourses/etc, je sais que j'ai une place assurée à Londres qui m'attend sagement. o/ still a little stunned, though, because, y'know, motherfucking London.
