Description

And the Emerald Eye, too! In delightful Hembeck fashion, he takes one of the Legion's most fearsome villains and makes her positively adorable. And look at how much detail he's able to pack into her costume, even on such a small card!

The gemologist in me also appreciates that even at such a small scale, Hembeck ensured that the three emeralds on her blouse feature the typical rectangular "emerald cut".

"Eye" believe you found yourself another winner. Groan. I know. I'll show myself out now.

I've been a bad, bad girl
I've been Empress with a devious plan
And it's a sad, sad world
When a girl will break a boy just because of fans

Don't you tell me to deny it
I've done wrong, and I want the power for my gems
I've come to you 'cause I need Eye dance to be true
And I just don't know where Hembeck begins

What I need is a good defense
'Cause I'm feelin' like an Emerald
And I need to be redeemed to Fatal Five sinned against
Because Legion’s I ever knew of love

Another incredible song-comment! Thanks, Marcus!

Beauty is in the eye of the card holder ;)

Was trying to figure out which one to comment on, and since I'm pretty much obsessed with the color green, this was an easy choice. Yeah I got bit by the Hembeck bug as well. Bought my first one as a gift, and the next thing I knew, I bought five more for myself. Haha! Initially I wanted to just buy every single green character he drew. Good thing I talked myself out of that, or else I'd have about 20-30 pieces by now. Congrats on this beauty and all your other Hembeck gems.

Hey, thank you kindly for the comment and the congratulations! As a fellow enjoyer of the colour green, I think you picked an excellent card to comment on. And it's always delightful to hear from fellow "victims" of the Hembeck Bug!

It would be pretty cool to see an entire gallery of green Hembeck cards. Maybe he'll do a bunch of green characters for St. Patrick's day and you can snag a few!
