Issue #87 in my comic book cover series is called Empire and features a Mongol warrior. This is one of my favorite comic book illustrations that I have made. I hope you enjoy it also.
My comic book cover mazes can be found in 2 places:
To receive a book of my first year of comic book book mazes (Volume 1 with mazes #1-53) you can sign up for my book alerts - any time I launch a free maze book, or paid book (on Amazon), I will send you a note about the new book launch.
I have been wanting to make a maze of a train for along time. I never quite came up with a picture or illustration that worked quite the way I wanted. Finally, for this project I found a few different versions to make, starting with this Locomotive Maze, Maze of the Week #191. I still have a dream of one day making an entire train, with each car a separate type of maze, starting ta the locomotive and ending at the caboose with dozens of interconnected boxcar mazes in between. I imagine a mobile maze (turned on it’s side) because the shape would be so hard to display online.
This locomotive maze uses starryai to create a background emulating the American West. I went with a color version with simple shadows. The maze is for kids. The shape fits the illustration rather than a standard piece of paper. I hope you like it !

I live in Cleveland, Ohio and I I finally had a chance to visit a labyrinth that has been on my to do list for awhile, the Schneider Healing Garden Labyrinth located at University Hospital. I had previously visited the labyrinth at the St. Wendelin Parish in Tremont, and I really enjoyed it.
Schneider Healing Garden Labyrinth
Location:
11206 Euclid Ave, Cleveland, OH 44106
How to get there: The labyrinth is located on Euclid Avenue so the Healthline bus is the most popular choice for public transportation. Directions from the city will have you get off at the Adelbert Road stop (Stop ID: 12565) and walk 3 blocks to the hospital. The 9 bus also uses that stop.
The Garden is walled off on the corner of Euclid and University Hospital Drive to give it some privacy and reduce street noise. Here is what you see as you approach, an obvious garden behind a wall:

Make down University Hospital Drive and take a left into the drop off area of the Seidman Cancer Center Building. The entrance looks like this on the back left:

We get some interesting quotes on the pathway and some nice sculptures surrounding the labyrinth. I left took pictures of a few and left others for you to discover on your own. There are benches on the outside of the labyrinth. The garden flora is nice and the setting is peaceful. There are chairs and tables set-up in the corner that I am sure are full during lunch hours.
This is one of my favorite parts of town in Cleveland. Plenty of great things to do, and you can see 2 places I made mazes of Severance Hall, and the Peter B Lewis Building. And of course, visit the Cleveland Museum of Art.
If you are ever in Asia here are some other mazes and labyrinths I visited:
I hope you enjoy this kids Ice Cream Truck Maze. It is part of the Land, Air, Sea and Space Maze collection. I will launch a new maze in the collection each Monday (the maze of the week) and Wednesday (a bonus maze) until the end of the year. I thought this maze would pair well with Monday’s School Bus maze.
When I see this particular maze I can hear the music running through my head and I get hungry for a treat. A French vanilla cone sounds good right about now.
This maze reminds me of one of the oldest mazes from the site of a food truck.
