Throwback to one of my first ever ink commissions of Death of the Endless. Drawn directly on to the last page collector's sketchbook. The book was filled with amazing art by incredible artists I remember I was so nervous adding my drawing to it! I'm still proud of it after all this time 😊🖤

From the official Marvel Tarot Deck, the Silver Surfer as the Hermit and Galactus as the Tower card. I loved getting to illustrate so many cool characters for this deck! 💫
