Self portrait of book illustrator Duncan Long for Werewolve of New Idria from Moonstone Books.

I was recently asked if I had hidden a self-portrait anywhere in Moonstone Books’ upcoming The Werewolves of New Idria.

The answer (as you can see above) is yes. I did smuggle a picture of myself into the graphic novel (the picture above is low-resolution; the print version should have about 4 times as much hideous detail).

While folks who know me well will recognize my noggin as the basis for these two head shots, I must stress that it is not precise in every detail as a self portrait.

But it is pretty accurate with the teeth.

Spoiler Alert: Obviously the police will have little trouble with the ID of my corpse if they go with my dental records.
