A bricky tribute to Roger Zelazny's Amber books.

The comic is based on a scene from Sign of Chaos #8.
Action starts around the end of chapter 7 with Bill Roth,
the lawyer from Earth, briefing Merlin, son of Corwin,
at a reception in castle Amber.

Interesting transcription. The action is such that it seems capturable (lots of
talking with rooms as the backdrops, etc.).
The full state dinner implied by the drinks after set
would be a fun project all on its own. Amber's main
hall should have one of every thing by definition. ;-)

Some of the sequences elsewhere in
the books might be quite hard (like in the first book when Corwin is driving a
car toward Amber and everything changes, and changes, and changes) to capture
well.
I played with that a bit by building right from the text.
but it got too complex fast. I initially was thinking the
trip to earth-shadow with Ganelon in 'Guns' would be what
I'd likely do. But tracking the sequence and the pictures
was the  exact point that realty checked me and I looked
for more of a 'political' rather than 'shadow' theme to do.


I noticed what seemed like it might be a flaw when I first viewed it, there's a
section of the comic that seemed to repeat. I may not have been observing
closely but it sure seemed that way to me.
In my drafts, when up, 6 and 7 were misnumbered/repeat.
My bad. Should be ok now as they were all replaced with new.
Thanks for the comments.
