i enjoy the different images that google uses to celebrate various dates. today, i learned that it’s the birthday of alphonse mucha , my favorite artist of all time. if you’re not familiar with his work, follow the link and browse the gallery.

just picked up a copy of x-women from atomic comics today. the artist, milo manara, is pretty well known, especially for his erotic art. i have his tarot card deck the erotic tarot, which is rather, well, interesting. funny that it took so long for x-women to show up as a book, though it appears it’s a one-off.
