A Sketch of Xaphan from Dr. Nekros: Phantasms and Chicanery

xyphan26.jpg

Above is the grand tormentor of Dr. Nekros … the demon Xaphan.  Fourteen years ago this demon slashed Dr. Nekros’ face and literally tried to tear his heart out.  Ever since, Dr. Nekros hasn’t been able to rest due to his obsession with getting revenge against the ghoul. 

Xaphan is mentioned in Dr. Nekros: The Tragedian (Volume I, Episode I), and Dr. Nekros’ ex-wife, Zetta, even sees the monster in a nightmare in Dr. Nekros: Phantasms and Chicanery.

The only question is … when will we see Xaphan again … and what will it mean for Dr. Nekros and Zetta?

A Sketch of Jason Willingham from Dr. Nekros: Phantasms and Chicanery

This is Jason Willingham, a self-made millionaire and innovator in the field of digital technology.  He’s also the second husband of Zetta Southerland, Dr. Nekros’ ex-wife.  He and Zetta married eleven years ago when he didn’t have a penny to his name.

Ever the understanding husband, Jason is happy to help his wife try to save Dr. Nekros from impending disaster with the demon Xaphan. 

Jason is featured in the latest Dr. Nekros serial entitled Dr. Nekros: Phantasms and Chicanery.

A Sketch of Zetta Southerland from Dr. Nekros: The Tragedian

This is a pretty basic pencil sketch I made of Zetta Southerland, Dr. Nekros’ ex-wife from Dr. Nekros: The Tragedian.  I really need to draw characters that I know I’m committing a great deal of time to because it makes them stand out more in my imagination and become more realistic.

Zetta is a very important character in the ongoing serial featuring she and Dr. Nekros.  Their story will unfold over three volumes with six episodes per volume.  The first episode has been released and it’s entitled Dr. Nekros: The Tragedian (Volume I, Episode I).

The second episode will come out soon.  It focuses on Zetta and is called Dr. Nekros: Phantasms and Chicanery.

A 2008 Sketch of Dr. Nekros from Dr. Nekros: The Tragedian

This is a simple pencil drawing I did in 2008 of Dr. Nekros as I wrote Dr. Nekros: The Tragedian.  As you’ve probably noticed, it helps me quite a bit to draw my characters so that I can better envision them within my mind.  It makes them real … to me.

Don’t forget, Dr. Nekros will be a recurring character in an eighteen-part series.  If you want to get in on the ground floor, read the first episode, Dr. Nekros: The Tragedian (1 of 18).  It’s hard to believe it’s all drawing to an end.

Some Nice Words About Dr. Nekros: The Complete Saga

My thanks to Dr. Jane Thomas for writing this about Dr. Nekros: “You will never find a more creative, time-turning, plot-twisting, character-revealing, surprising story anywhere in the fantasy genre. And you will come to love the totally real, frustrating but likable characters.”

Dr. Nekros: The Complete Saga Is Ready For Your Enjoyment

Dr. Nekros The Complete Saga

At long last, Dr. Nekros: The Complete Saga is now available in paperback format.

Dr. Nekros: The Complete Saga focuses upon the disfigured Dr. Nekros’ pursuit for vengeance and his estranged loved ones’ quest to save him. Micah Vadenburgh suffered mutilation by the demon Xaphan. The trauma drove him from both his wife, Zetta, and his doctoral degree. Years later, living off the money he swindles from hapless victims, Micah has transformed into Dr. Nekros. He travels the countryside in a haunted 1936 Packard while searching for the monstrosity that ruined him. As Zetta and her new husband, Jason, work to reverse Micah’s downward spiral, an intricate trap has been set—one that began a century ago by something far more evil, far more conniving than anything Dr. Nekros has ever before encountered. A supernatural thriller with a wickedly dark sense of humor, Dr. Nekros: The Complete Saga plays with time, reality, and imagination. Readers will immerse themselves in a tale filled with psychological suspense, nightmarish horror, and … redemption?

Looking For a New Epic To Enjoy? Give Dr. Nekros a Try

Are you in need of a new epic series?  Try Dr. Nekros, a trilogy that I like to describe as Moonlighting meets The X-Files.

When Micah Vadenburgh is ravaged by a demon after trying to jump-start a ghost hunting career, he abandons his wife, his doctoral degree, and even his dog in pursuit of vengeance.  Ten years later, Micah has adopted a new persona–Dr. Nekros–but is no closer to exacting revenge.  Zetta Southerland, his ex-wife, appears one day with a warning that his life is in danger.  Little does Dr. Nekros, or Zetta, realize that the demon is closer than they know, and they have both fallen into the monster’s trap.  Dr.Nekros is a darkly humorous story about the depravity of obsession, but it also explores the bonds of family and the hope of redemption.
