Good going, Magnus!!!

I only wish this could have gotten more hype, and you could have gotten more donations for this, Cliff!

I really appreciate your extra offering, and only wish I'd had extra in my account this month. I spent too much on comics. :(

It is always special to see art first-hand. You get a physical feel of it that no pic ever can reproduce. And colors always lose impact on the screen.

On top of those "normal differences" I was immediately struck by the metallic feel of the robots and the vividness of the scene. I'm more inside the scene holding the art than seeing it on the screen.

Congrats. It is always better to hold art in your own hands
