=) K, this one is finished =)

I think when most people think of the X-Men..the first names that come to mind are like Cyclops..Wolverine..Phoenix..Storm..the main players..but if you go back a ways..there are a lot of cool ones that did not get as much coverage so to speak...one of my all time favorites was Illyana Rasputin..she was the little sister of Colossus..and had a spin off of her own comic from the X-men called Magik....If you ever have time and you are into comics you should look this one up..it's a four issue limited series..and I used the picture from issue 4 as a reference for this picture..i tried to stay as true to the character as possible...and give full original credit to the original artist....even though i took a few liberties....I am very happy with it so far....If I can get a link to the original picture I will post it..i would use my comic to show you..but my scanner is currently out of commision.....I welcome any tips or advice for this as I am at a little bit of a loss for a background...

In order to understand the significance of the folded napkin, you have to understand a little bit about Hebrew tradition of that day. The folded napkin had to do with the Master and Servant, and every Jewish boy knew this tradition. When the servant set the dinner table for the master, he made sure that it was exactly the way the master wanted it. The table was furnished perfectly, and then the servant would wait, just out of sight, until the master had finished eating, and the servant would not dare touch that table, until the master was finished. Now if the master was done eating, he would rise from the table, wipe his fingers, his mouth, and clean his beard, and would wad up that napkin and toss it onto the table. The servant would then know to clear the table. For in those days, the wadded napkin meant, "I'm done". But if the master got up from the table, and folded his napkin, and laid it beside his plate, the
servant would not dare touch the table, because.......... The folded napkin meant, "I'm coming back!"

Jesus is coming back.
