Messed with the Juggernaut pencils a little more. Beefed up the arm a bit. Gave volume to the arm bands by showing an additional plane. Added the debris. Might add some more. Who knows?

I wrote this 25-page Marvel holiday issue, and I honestly think it turned out so good and fun. It's got fantastic art by @lucianovecchio.bsky.social, Paco Medina, @stockmannate.bsky.social and @robotjq.bsky.social. There are jokes and hugs, and literally every character we could think of. Buy it!

BaltimoreComiccon.bsky.social is upon us, and every year, they release a themed "Yearbook" to coincide with the convention. The theme is Jeff Smith's BONE, and I decided to honor not just Jeff Smith, but Charles Vess as well by doing my take on ROSE, their graphic novel prequel.
