Europe / Japan
What tickles us about this picture is the facial features on the chap doing the punching; nearly like he is not fairly conscious of what he is managed to do. It is a mildly humourous piece and the artwork model simply is not one thing you incessantly see lately. Virtually like one thing from The Beano or The Dandy. We dig it.
