On the subject of the two of them holding hands...I had to be careful there, to make sure the interlaced fingers went in the right direction, and were of the right number! Carefully penciling those hands, I was reminded of the kerfuffle in fandom, and in the Marvel offices, when Dave Cockrum drew this in X-MEN 96: Heads exploded around the world, and a legion of fans, eager to prove they ALREADY knew the characters better than the people working on the books, sent in a flood of mail chastising Dave for giving Kurt the wrong number of fingers. Which, of course, he hadn't. The amazing thing was, I stood in the office Dave then shared with Roger Stern and watched a female writer poke at him for drawing the wrong number of fingers, and even after I demonstrated what was happening, by curling back two fingers on each hand and interlacing the remaining four, she STILL didn't get it! (BTW, "BRAP"? Did the demon have a whoopie-cushion stuck to its nose?}
