I found a used copy of the White Wolf* In Nomine** rulebook, and am using it to make an altered book. I was working on a page last night and realized that the illustration of the Archangel Michael was swiped from an old photo of Michael Praed as Robin Hood. Had the hair and the sword and everything. Fucker's haunting me, I swear.

*EDIT: I'm full of shit. It's a Steve Jackson Games game.
**Role-playing game involving Angels and Demons. Hardcover, with hilarious Bible-white pleather binding and red foil stamping.

This sounds highly amusing. Would love to see what you do to the book.

The Backflip Boy used to play In Nomine with a bunch of our insane Ren Faire friends up in Milwaukee, actually--it's based pretty much half on Dante and half on Terry Ptarchett and Neil Gaiman's _Good Omens" with some of the Prophecy films thrown in for good measure.

As for art, Carol Burell, an old friend from RoS fandom was an art designer on one of the In Nominee books, so hey, you never know... :)

That's like Jody Whatsername that did the covers for all the Mercedes Lackey books about Whatshisname the Herald-Mage. Yes, you can tell it's been at least 10 years since I read those stupid books. ;) I'd love to see what you do with the book too!
