Description

Although some of my favorite Common Elements commissions are those in which the connection between the featured characters is obscure to the point of absurdity, some pairings are so obvious that I just can't help but commission them.

Case in point: comicdom's two most famous heroic mercenaries, who just happen to share similar surnames. Could it be that Jonathan Sable and Silver Sablinova -- better known as Silver Sable -- are long-lost cousins who chose the same occupation? And who better to illustrate the possibility than the creator of Jon Sable, Freelance -- Mike Grell?

This is Common Elements #84.

One of the reasons I love commissions. Where else would you be able to see Silver Sable drawn by Mike Grell? Brilliant pairing!

She's not a character I have a great deal of affection for, but Grell actually makes the Marvel Sable work for me.
