There are a few things in comics that are sure things. John Byrne will reinforce the image of him being a bitter old man, Neil Gaimain is an object of lust for goths worldwide and Frank Cho loves to draw beautiful women. The third certainty is going to be underscored with a hardcover collection this fall, featuring cover, pin-ups and other depictions of Cho’s favorite character from Liberty Meadows, Brandy. Image sent out their normal press release to promote the book, and included a nice sample of what we can expect from the hardcover offering.

THERE’S ONLY ONE WOMAN FOR FRANK CHO AND HER NAME IS BRANDY
A new Liberty Meadows art book (and more) arrive in August

BERKELEY, CA — 15 June, 2006 — This August, Frank Cho and Image Comics are bringing a whole lot of Brandy for their fans. It all kicks off with LIBERTY MEADOWS: COVER GIRL, a 128-page full-color hardcover that will retail for $24.99.

For the first time, every single one of Frank Cho’s covers for LIBERTY MEADOWS – from the single issues to the trade paperbacks - and then some – is collected in one deluxe hardcover!

“I’m pretty excited about this book,” says Cho. “It’s great to have all my Liberty Meadows covers and pin-ups in one fat volume since even I’m missing some of the early issues.”

LIBERTY MEADOWS: COVER GIRL features an all-new cover, plus a behind-the-scenes look at the development of some of your favorite images of Brandy and the gang, from rough sketch to full color.

“People will be amazed how much color adds to the art,” added Cho. “Brett Evans has been doing amazing color jobs on my covers for years.”
