  <description>Melvin always wanted to be a super hero, but tragically he couldn't ever make the cut. The lack of super powers and extreme vertigo always held him back. And like so many tragic stories of super heros gone astray, you must now fear melvin.


I know I didn't get super heros for the contest but I really wanted it. So i decided to kinda combine my theme 'eyeballs' with 'super heros'. I think it worked out pretty well.

either way, enjoy. I loved drawing it.

      <body>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;cite&gt;jimmyhaffa1 said:&lt;/cite&gt; im putting money on you for the win, this shits amazing, are you printing this???&lt;/blockquote&gt;

It should be a cool finish to this contest. I feel like I am going against a giant!


&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;cite&gt;jimmyhaffa1 said:&lt;/cite&gt; are you willing to sell this??? email me micah@devicious.com&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I think I am going to end up printing this, along with a mini book(20ish pages) about the back story of melvin... should be pretty cool. I am always down to do more designs this style if you want. Hit me up, thomas@wearesynapse.com.</body>
