You know who likes ketchup? Well, basically everyone. But do you know who really likes ketchup? Children! And it always seems that however much ketchup they get into their mouths, they seem to get even more everywhere else.

Burning Mercury's Weekly Update!

Happy Monday, Mercury-ites!

Today, we'd like to introduce the final character from the upcoming children's book, "Melvin the Mediocre Meaty Ogre", written by Al Mauriello with fantastic art by Ozzie Rodriguez.

Meet Emma, a friendly sprite and friend of Melvin. Emma is in the same class as Melvin (and they're group of friends) at Swamp School and is always smiling and eager to help out her friends. While flying, Emma's yellow wings leave a beautiful trail of small pink stars that gently fade away!

Check back next week for more updates, and enjoy your day!

Happy Wednesday, everyone!

Apologies, it's been a few weeks since our last update; but don't worry, we're hard at work on our 3 current projects!

Below is the fifth and final world--the MIDDLE--from conceptual artist Jose Gomez from the upcoming story, Pangaia. Surrounded on all sides by 4 nations with distinctly different geographies and cultures, the people of the middle land are a peaceful, farming nation, who proudly tend to their swaying golden fields.

Be sure to check back next week (we promise we'll be here waiting!) for an exciting announcement!

Burning Mercury's Weekly Update!

Happy Christmas Eve morning!

Burning Mercury Studios has been hard at work this month and with the holiday approaching, we haven't been able to post any updates the past few weeks. Sorry for the inconvenience, we strive to keep you guys informed with the latest and greatest news from our current projects...so we've decided to make up for it by giving you a double serving of updates this week and next! Consider it our special holiday treat to you! :)

For our Pangaia update, since it's been unseasonably warm in the Northeast this week, we decided to share artist Jose Gomez's conceptual rendition of the SOUTH. And since the holidays are a time to spend with family, artist Ozzie Rodriguez gives us a sneak peek at Melvin's dad.

Enjoy and as always, please feel free to leave comments!

Burning Mercury's Weekly Update!

The creative team here at Burning Mercury Studios hope you and your family had a wonderful Thanksgiving! But before the holiday weekend is over, here's one final treat--introducing Melvin's mom, drawn by artist Ozzie Rodriguez!

Be sure to check back mid this week to see another land introduction for Pangaia!
