All Bill, everywhere, all the time
And what would you expect in Cody, Wyoming, the town named after the famous frontier ruffian and consummate showman …?
I almost lobbied to skip the Buffalo Bill Center of the West on “tourist trap” grounds. That would have been a mistake.
Sure, the Center, like the town and, for that matter, the whole region, is full of BB, but that’s only one-fifth of the place - literally. The center includes four other museums under one roof - Plains Indians, Whitney Western Art, Firearms and Natural History - and they’re all top notch.
Admission fee - around 20 bucks - is good for two days. We spent a whole afternoon there, then returned the next morning. I can’t remember ever going to a museum on two consecutive days before.
To complete our Buffalo Bill immersion, we ate dinner at The Irma, built by Cody in 1902 and named after his daughter. Frankly the food was so-so but the atmosphere was just what you’d want.
The flashy cherrywood backbar (bottom photo) was a gift from Queen Victoria and the antique cash register no longer cha-chings but makes a fine piece of eye candy.

I have no idea where the story went with them. I even feel odd about the concept and the story that I do remember. But they are a part of my childhood nostalgia, when I'd read the comics I borrowed from a friend of mine who lived across the street, and we'd chat about them.

W.I.T.C.H.
The designs was an effort to make them look more "witchy" while also keeping the elements from the show.

Hi, everybody :3
I recently read W.I.T.C.H. comics for the first time, before that I only watched the series as a child. I've never drawn on this universe before. And so, having received a huge dose of impressions, I drew our favorite guardians for the first time in my life.
For me, this comics is very important, because for a very long time I couldn’t bring myself to draw what I like. This story inspired me to finally pick up a stylus, and I'm going to show the result of this inspiration in further posts.
