I don't really care about the details (whether or not he's being paid in one lump sum, stocks/shares, over a n-year period...fuck that guy), but how can a company worth 1.4 trillion award someone a 1 trillion pay packet without gobbling up all of their profits?

I really wanted to open up some pre-Thought Bubble commission slots but I'm just too slammed with comic stuff at the moment. What if I did a bunch of Phantom headshots? Would folks going to TB want Phantom stuff?

I have many pieces by the maestro, @gustaffovargas.bsky.social, but today, I finally have a page from his brilliant Peruvian cyberpunk masterpiece. I'm a very happy comic lover today.

Amazing work, mi hermano. Muchas gracias.
