Greetings friends! I hope this installment of TOACM finds you well. If you are one of the folks out there who are in the midst of the holiday season then I wish you a Happy Holiday! Next week we're taking a brief break from The Isle of Terror. In its place will be a special TOACM comic that I never thought about putting up on the 'net, but found myself inspired to do so. It is something I drew earlier this year and had with me at the few comic conventions and events I attended this year that never found its way into the hands of many of you readers. Consider it a little holiday treat...
Also, for any of you who are wondering just who the heck Dominikos Petrakis is, you can click HERE to find out.
Cheers!

Wow–talk about coincidence… One of my earliest issues of X-Men was issue #141. I was in the 5th grade, and I had to have read that thing at least two or three hundred times, so I got that allusion without the link. One of the interesting pages for me of the entire issue was the page where each of the characters was introduced and Avalanche demonstrated his powers (that demonstration was so ambiguous that I thought he had “ice” powers). I couldn’t wait to read more–just like I am with TOACM.
@Larry: LOL! Don’t you love that? I have a similar fondness for Uncanny #140 where Logan and Kurt travel to Canada and team up w/ Alpha Flight to fight Wendigo. I love that issue! =o)
Great use of those narrow, close-up panels, Denver! They’re split up the scene nicely and show off your expressive faces!
Agreed on the panels – I always love your layouts. Looking forward to the holiday treat!
This is looking very good. Great sequence of panels and pacing. Really well done.
Loving the return of the Checkered Man! I hope you have a fantastic Christmas and New Year too. And thanks again for all the support/advice/help I’ll never forget what you have done for me this past year. You’re a true (albeit) distant friend.
