If you caught yesterday’s “Abe Sapien” #19 then you know the story’s starting to dig into his past a little more. You also may have noticed the back cover, illustrated by Alise Gluškova. As a complimentary piece to “Abe Sapien” #19, Multiversity Comics presents here a short story from Gluškova with dialogue by Scott Allie and lettering by Clem Robins. I’ll let Scott Allie explain how this one came about:
“I met Alise at Chicago’s C2E2 last year. She’s part of a group of B.P.R.D. fans who throw a lot of energy at these books online. The group of them became friends, as I understand it, through message boards related to Mike’s work. They were cosplaying as B.P.R.D. and Abe Sapien characters when I met them. Alise was Strobl, the villain from Abe Sapien. Alise drew this story on her own. I got it from her right around the time Sebastian was drawing Abe Sapien #19, and there’s a coincidence between this story and a flashback in Abe #19 that was just too convenient for words. I offered to dialogue it, and Clem offered to letter it.”
