This was a wedding gift for a friend of mine, Ande.  She and I occasionally get together to make art.  At one of these hang-outs, we spent time trying to learn how to draw comic book characters.  Ande's now husband, Erick, is interested in comic books, also, so I figured the theme would be appropriate for a wedding gift.  My husband, Chris, helped me with the initial character drawings (I was still pretty bad at cartooning back then)--which was perfect, because then it really was a gift from both of us!
