Received, and very impressed I am too (not really surprised at that!)
The story selection is better than volume one and the colouring is excellent, especially DEATH CASTLE which came across as very 'chilly' and atmospheric - I'm saving it to read on dark, wintery nights. Well done to all involved....

just got my copies today!
man is this thing sweet, i must have flipped through it 5 times when i opened the box.
being from the US, i dont know much about the UK Joe stuff but its growing on me the more i color some of these pages. i did it to help out my friend jamar, plus i thought it would be fun. i dont think i am the best colorist out there but i am honored to be a part of such a great group of guys!
this is a really fun project to work on, just wish i had more time to do more pages. i just wrapped up a ton of stuff some of which was in vol 2, some will be in vol 3.....can i give out a spoiler........i did some work on the baroness origin story. i didnt do the entire story but what i did do was very interesting! cant wait for vol 3!!
hope everyone enjoys the book.
is there a break down on who did what pages? just thought that if a fan liked how a colorist did a page and wants some info/tips they might be able to email or pm the person and ask. just wondering is all.

There is a storyline colourist list here
http://www.bloodforthebaron.com/colouring/team.html
For indiviudal pages you'd have to look through the forum notifications. Actually, it's a good point, I'll try and update the list at some point.
The Baroness is scheduled for Vol 4. I have posted prospective contents lists for all 10 volumes.

I read it as slowly as I could, but I've just finished the book.
Lovely, lovely nostalgic stuff presented beautifully. I just wish I had all ten volumes on my shelf right now so I could grab any story I wanted.
It will happen one day. I just hope that by then I'm not too old and addled to appreciate them.
