Deathless Comic (Excerpt)

Deathless is the highly-anticipated new standalone novel by award-winning speculative fiction author Catherynne M. Valente, due out from Tor Books on March 29, 2011. Deathless re-envisions the story of Russian folk figures Koschei the Deathless and Marya Morevna: a collision of magical history and actual history, of revolution and mythology, of love and death, which will bring Russian myth to life in a stunning new incarnation.

This is a promotional comic Cat and artist Amy Houser did for Arisia 2011; it depicts Marya Morevna’s encounter with the household domovoi from Chapter Three of the book, which you can read here (along with, and preceeded by, chapters one and two).
