i'm actually putting together a tattoo idea featuring my favorite 20 or so comic book characters. it's kinda hard to narrow it down. i'm hoping to get it done in the next month or so, i will definitely post pics when it happens.

i'm thinking magnus, x-o and rai will make the cut...maybe shadowman, we'll see...
