The setup itself is very pleasing to the eye, but I'm mostly impressed by the art itself. You're a telented guy. I'm curious about the graphic novel. IS it available?

This year at Comic Con '01, I sold about $200 some odd dollars in originals from No Stereotypes, i didn't plan on it, but I brought them to give away and 1 guy insisted on paying me and it spread from there.

Cool by me, helped pay for things like...um...food and repairs for my car.
