I did this piece a loooooong time ago, right before I worked on a TCats series called "HammerHand's revenge" for Wildstorm... at this time, I was just beginning to ink my own work, so I wanted to keep it simple and not give myself room for a gazillion screwups! ... I dig the way it came out, mind you, it's a pretty simple piece, but I just wanted to do a piece where Hachiman looks all serious, like those old school photos of Samurai.
