Man, that's a beaut. Opena's so good, and continues to get better, which is hard to believe! Love his lines here and the tonal accents are subtle but so effective. Really fun homage, too - us '80s kids know it well :) Congrats!

A frequently homaged image from other media, but the setting as much as the characters make this perhaps the most suitable appropriation of the iconic Breakfast Club movie poster design. Someone else noted the Kaluta-ness of the linework, and I'd add that I see an element of Charles Vess, too. Great work here by Opeña.
