My understanding is that "Team Kandora" from "Transparency Digital" did the colors for the HEDGE KNIGHT, for the Dabel Brothers/ DB Pro, and that Rob Ruffolo did the colors for the SWORN SWORD, again for the Dabels.
Googling the names turns up references to all of the above, but no contact info.
So if any of you out there know Rob Ruffolo or anyone from Team Kandora, tell them to get in touch with me privately via email, or LJ messaging.
Thanks.

Also a STARPORT graphic novel, based on a pilot I wrote for Fox in 1993, and a WINDHAVEN graphic novel, scripted by Lisa Tuttle, and three all original WILD CARDS graphic novels.
But no, this does not concern any of those. This is in connection with old stuff.

There are some HEDGE KNIGHT pages in the portfolio there, so I'm guessing he's your guy.
He's also @rruffs on Twitter, apparently.
He has an account on linkedin if anyone else has one!
I've found Rob Ruffolo's artist page. Hope this helps.

(Btw: I just registered to help you with this so I don't know if Livejournal will let me post a link. But if you google "rob ruffolo concept artist", his site should be on the first page.)
According to an old interview I've found, they took the step from coloring studio to publisher in 2004 or 2005. But Kandora Publishing was only in business for about a year and then vanished.
Luckily, I discovered the Linkedin page from one of Kandora's former writers, C. Edward Sellner who also has a blog: http://cedwardsellner.blogspot.de/
If you scroll down on his blog, you can see links to his Facebook, Twitter, G+ etc. profiles on the right. Maybe he knows who was in charge back then and can give you their contact infos.
PS: I hope my English was good enough to convey what I was trying to say.

This is off-topic, but I've always preferred the old CMYK style of matte colouring from comic books in the 50s rather than the slick photoshop gradient colours of modern comic books - would you ever print a book in that style, George?

Here's Jung Choi's contact info. That's Team Kandora! :)
Any particular artistic reason between you and Gianni to make the cover silver with a red shield?
I think the new cover looks fantastic anyhow, just really hoping the UK doesn't get a dust jacket like we got for World of Ice and Fire, much prefer a glossy hardback!
Thanks for the interest in my books.
