Well, kind of...
Regular readers may recall that I'm friends with Adam Hughes, one of the hottest cover artists working in comics today. Famous for his Wonder Woman covers, Adam is currently the regular cover artists for Catwoman.
Adam once asked me about the Scaramouch pen name, and I told the story of how I used to work as a semi-professional magician in London (meaning I earned half what I needed to live), and that was my 'stage name'. I used to perform Bizarre or Seance magick - ghost stories and sprit effects. Much hilarity and guffawing followed from Adam, and resulted in a convention sketch he did for me at Baltimore which I talked about here.
Well, it seems Adam had another, much bigger surprise in store for me....
Above you will see the cover to the upcoming Catwoman #50, featuring a poster of magician Zatanna. You might also just be able to read the supporting cast below her, but here's a better view...
My heartfelt thanks to Adam for making an old comic geek's dreams come true. Catwoman #50 will be on shelves in a couple of months. And while you're at it, check out Adam's short film, The Cursed Chest.

That is incredibly cool and a beautiful cover by Mr. Hughes as usual. If any comic book artists out there want to use the Evil Richard name in their work please feel free.
It is a beautiful cover. I know this has made your day!
Congrats dude. That's very cool.
