It's been a thrill to have worked on a number of Captain Canuck issues over the last few years! If you're looking to pick up a few Canadian published comics, you can't get much more Canadian than a man in a Maple Leaf costume!

Finally got a chance to colour some of Nathan Wahl's artwork! I've been a huge fan of his style for a few years now, and he posesses a seemingly endless well of cool character names and designs. Clockwise from top! * Dr. Illuminati * Shark Fist * Bug Boy?
