Book Description

September 26, 2001 Poison Elves (Book 1)
POISON ELVES: THE MULEHIDE YEARS compiles Volumes One through Four of the original POISON ELVES trade paperback series into one gigantic collection!

From 1991 to 1995, Drew Hayes self-published an independent comic called both "I, Lusiphur" and "Poison Elves." POISON ELVES: THE MULEHIDE YEARS contains all 20 issues of Hayes' seminal work, as well as a few extra surprises. Also, for the first time ever, Hayes has allowed the first two issues of "I, Lusiphur" to be reprinted in their original form.

POISON ELVES is the story of a misanthropic antihero named Lusiphur. He lives in a surprisingly progressive medieval time period where magic and violence rule the land. Having left the employ of an increasingly paranoid feudal lord, Lusiphur begins his trek across Amrahly'nn in search of adventure - which he finds in abundance.

Within these pages, you will find Demonlords, dopplegangers, serial killers, Elvin Wardukes, beautiful d'jinnis, and antagonistic wizards...who all do their best to cause Lusiphur nothing but trouble. Steeped in mythology, sociology, and a world as real and complete as our own, POISON ELVES is shocking, funny, and cynical - but most of all, fun. So join Lusiphur for the ride of his life and witness how the saga began.


Editorial Reviews

About the Author

Drew Hayes entered the comic book field in 1991 by self-publishing his cult-hit series, "I, Lusiphur." Over the next four years, he published 20 issues, changed the series title to "Poison Elves," and became known as one of the most singular and respected voices in the self-publishing movement.

Then, in a bold transition, Hayes brought POISON ELVES under the Sirius Entertainment banner, where his creative freedom has remained wholly intact. Meanwhile, POISON ELVES continues to be one of the most creative monthly independent comics in existence. Hayes lives in the Seattle area and attends as many rockabilly concerts as is inhumanly possible.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hayes shows early promise and fullfills expectations, April 15, 2002
This review is from: Poison Elves: The Mulehide Years (Paperback)
This book (obviously) showcases Drew Hayes' early work. At first, he begins as the King of Crosshatching, but as one reads through the graphic novel, the art style truly begins to evolve into cleaner lines. I give four stars rather than five because, while I love this book, and the series, I don't feel that The Mulehide Years really is Drew Hayes' best work. It is a great, well-paced read and the characters are complex. He has a gift for mixing one-liners into otherwise dark moments. I do highly recommend it if you're curious about Poison Elves, because, as any fan of the series will tell you, even the minor characters are going to show up again. Also, the interview with the main character is well worth the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars fantasy at its finest, January 19, 2003
This review is from: Poison Elves: The Mulehide Years (Paperback)
drew hayes has developed a fully convincing and original fantasy world here. nothing like you've seen in popular movies or books. lusiphur is on par with john constantine for the greatest anti-hero ever. check this out, you won't be disappointed.
