This was a color test for Phineus comics. I had avoided colors for a long while, mainly because I didn’t know how to do it. I even had half of “Ruins of a Moonlit Landscape” colored (poorly) up on the old Strumhaus site way back when. I really didn’t learn how to correctly color (I.E. using layers) until I did a few covers and colored all of Weirdlings. I believe I used this page as a test for Phineus. This story is an old favorite of mine. You can read it here: https://phinmagicstudio.wordpress.com/classic-phineus-archive/my-mummy-loves-me/

Phineus : Magician for Hire is the brainchild of creator Barry Linck. Phineus was created in 1987, of then a high school senior after reading too much of Matt Wagner's "Mage", too much Dungeon's and Dragon's and watching too much of John Carpenter's "Big trouble in LittleChina". Over the interviening years Phineus changed from angellic savior, to reluctant hero, to art student who finds he is a mage, until, in 1991, for a comic class at Edinboro University, he became part of a Husband and Wife paranormal investigations team, with Phineus' sidekick and wife Sara. Barry produced and self published from 1993 to the present 33 comics with our erstwhile heroes, garnering a small but rabid fan following.
