    That custom is on the level of your Animal Man custom you made a while back...Excellent work.
    "When not too many people can see we're all the same
    And because of all their tears,
    Their eyes can't hope to see
    The beauty that surrounds them
    Isn't it a pity".

      I like him! That cheesy grin reminds me of one of the old Sinbad flicks, back before Ray Harryhausen became involved with the special effects.

      Makes me think of Douglas Fairbanks Jr. for some reason.

          The character, whose name means the Eagle, stirred up some controversy within the Hispanic community. It wasn't for his speech pattern or forced accent, but rather for his background story. He is from Spain, but his hometown was drawn as a stereotypical run down Mexican villa complete with sombreros and goats. WHile not intentionally racist, it did get more than a few complaints. Perhaps the artist took a few liberties or was too lazy to research Spain.

          Anyway, he's a cool character that deserves more exposure.

          If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

                      It's hand-sewn. That was my first attempt at making a shirt with a collar.

                        That is a great job for a first attempt.

                        What pattern did you use? I don't think they have one like that in the customizer section.
