I've pulled out a favourite Bacchus cover from 1995 for the front of volume 2 of the new Bacchus collection. Back in 1995 the only record I was keeping of artwork was large size colour laser prints. These are not good enough for re-use of the art on a front cover at the original size, and I regretted not being able to use this old favourite on the Italian editions. Then I found a black and white full size (A3) photocopy and had the idea of recolouring that. Pete Mullins had coloured the original, so the new version has some variations. I also thought it was neat the way Edizioni BD reframed it in a more assymetrical arrangement and have repeated that for the new one.

Really looking forward to this, Eddie.
