Had I more time before the relocation from Terwillegar, I would have looked at the area around the space more closely and possibly made a better choice.

In the end, the retail space, the gallery, the studios, everything inside was right. It was just in the wrong location.

Marcus drew a little sketch in every trade I brought (and I brought a stack), it was great. Pictured are Gambit, Jubilee, and Betsy Braddock in some Excalibur books, plus Huntress from her New 52 miniseries.
