Welcome to Aesop's World, a world of allegory and violence.



It's a dark world where love and redemption have a cost that can only be measured in blood and violence. It's just like your own Earth, except darker... furrier... scalier. There are no humans. If there were ever humans, they are just the myths now of strange religions and cultures.



The place to be is New Amsterdam, where its five boroughs form a familiar cityscape in the Independent and United States of America. Every race, every species co-mingle here with a tolerant surface of live and let live. At least, until you cross the wrong person. Rubbing someone's fur the wrong way might get you killed.





Bill is a good friend and a fine writer, and it's an honor to have illustrated his newest book, Cold Blood: Fatal Fables, a collection of six dark anthro stories. The cover features Brooklyn Blackie, a wolfdog detective (I love me some weird noir). Bill wanted something different than the usual cartoon-influenced furry art, so I went for an unsettling, realistic face with a composition influenced by old noir movie posters.
