Happy birthday, Mike! Draw more comics!

    I’m a huge Mignola fan. I love Hellboy, stand-alone stuff like The Amazing Screw-On Head, just all of it. (Links are shameless plugs to my blog, slowly being updated to correct screwy HTML wrought by supposed Blogger improvements, with alt-text commentary inspired by a certain Little Stuffed Bull added in the doing.)
