 The Grendel Collection Scents based on Matt Wagner's Grendel comic book series. PERFUME OIL BLENDS $26.00 per 5ml bottle. Presented in an amber apothecary vial. Because of the nature of this project, imps are not available for any Grendel scents. Proceeds from every bottle sold go to the Hero Initiative, the first federally recognized not-for-profit organization dedicated to helping comic book creators, writers and artists in need. Founded in late 2000 by a consortium of comic book and trade publishers including Marvel Comics, Image Comics, Dark Horse Comics, Wizard Entertainment, CrossGen Comics and Dynamic Forces Inc., the 501(c)(3) charity aims to assist comic creators with health, medical, and quality-of-life assistance. Matt Wagner has enjoyed a career in comics for nearly thirty years. His first published work was a short story that would introduce one of comicdom's most respected creator-owned characters--the mastermind assassin, GRENDEL. Best known for this epic creation and his other, more personal, allegory, MAGE, Matt has also worked on a variety of established characters. These include his ground-breaking work on the character of Batman villain, Two-Face, in the graphic novel, FACES, as well as a five-year stint on the fan-favorite Vertigo title, SANDMAN MYSTERY THEATRE, writing the DR. MID-NITE mini-series for DC Comics and serving as the regular cover artist on the Kevin Smith-penned relaunch of GREEN ARROW. |
