Mmmm Meat

Tried out my Foreman mini-grill. Turned out very well, even if its a bit difficult to tell how thoroughly you've cooked a steak.

Sunday Trade: G0dland

G0dland: Hello, Cosmic! by Joe Casey & Tom Scioli, Design by Richard Starkings, Colors by Bill Crabtree

G0dland is Kirby inspired super-heroics cranked up to eleven. Alien gods, bizarre villains and vibrant crackling colors. If ever there were a true succesor to the King's 4th World work it would be Casey and Scioli...
