Beasts Book 2 Submission


There's a great book that came out last year called Beasts published by Fantagraphics and they're just about to release another called Beasts Book 2 full of lots of amazing artists. They need to fill one more page so they're looking for submissions.

I noticed there wasn't any Irish Beasties in the first one so here's my submission.

It's called "The Phooka" or "PĂșca" in the Irish language. It's one of my favourite of all the mythical creatures we have here in Ireland. It plays a part in the best Irish novel ever written At Swim Two Birds by Flann O'Brien.

More here about it.
