'It's wet.

Dark and wet.

It's the kind of weather that penetrates.
It makes your skin feel itchy and oily.
Dirty,...kind of.
But real too.

That's good.

It's time for Cheers.
Sam and Diane.
Norm Peterson. The Coach.
And then, after he died, Woody.

I don't have a tv now,...
but that's ok.

The shows in my mind are almost always better.'

-The Maxx Issue #1


----------

Very special thanks goes out to lockstock/vkacademy for her most excellant
stock. The particular pose I used was the catalyst for this piece.

Another big helping of thanks goes out to rl-brushes for her incredible brushes
which were instrumental (what an understatement!) in the creation of the border.

The font I molested was acquired from www.reticula.net.

Of course thanks goes to Sam Kieth for creating The Maxx and to Bill Messner-Loebs
for giving The Maxx a voice.

More than anything though, thank all of YOU deviants to whom words could never be enough,...
but,...
I continue boring you with them anyway.
;)

ps-
I may get around to coloring it.
Hey! It could happen!

It has such a Mucha look to it, but in your own special way.
