Gilbert and Jaime are two of the best storytellers in comics but the calendar pieces they produced show what phenomenal illustrators they were too. This piece always stood out as one of the best renderings of Palomar as a setting. Congrats, Liam!

Nice to see that you ended up with this Liam. It's a really cool piece and an excellent addition to your Tonantzin collection :).

Ha! Clearly you've been following this piece, as have I. And yes, exactly. The reason I decided to pull trigger is because I thought it made a nice a companion to the Duck Feet splash. Two very different takes that together, I think, speak to the character's narrative arc.

Had no idea you got this page. A classic and memorable image from the early years of the Palmoar Saga.
