Sneak a peek into the upcoming illustrated edition of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
I rather like this artist's concepts and style. (Harry is not shown on that page, but I can only assume it's he who is currently gracing the front page of the artist's website.) It gives me some hope for what his Severus may look like. Certainly I like these pictures much better than those new cover illustrations that were going around a while back, the ones that still had Harry looking oddly very juvenile even after OotP.
For a minute I had faint hope that the US version of the new edition of the first book would also bear the title Philosopher's Stone, but from Scholastic's page it would seem not. Ah well, I guess they wouldn't want to damage recognition of it in stores or something, at this point. (Wow. First printing of SS, fifty thousand copies. First printing of DH, 12 million copies.)
