This just might be material for inclusion in the letters collumn of an upcoming issue of Kabuki.
Thanks for sharing my work. |
Awesome man, and seriously in that situation your books are the ones I think some non fans, especially a girl could appreciate. So it was a no-brainer to reach for some of your work to show her what comics are capable of. And honestly, I was bummed when we didn't get a DD hardcover of your run, because I was going to get her that for a Christmas present, she just loved your Echo paintings. (but, the relationship never really materialized long-term, so now I'm sad that I don't have that hardcover.) but thanks for the assist DM.  _________________

no, Batman is a crime-fighter who happens to associate with superheros | But he wears tights, like a superhero.
He wears a cape, like a superhero.
He can be conveniently contacted in times of crisis, like a superhero.
He can punch people really hard......like a superhero.
