Saw the A-Bomb pic, a little disturbing. The topless part is mundane. Not sure why he bothered going there, it doesn't add to the pic.

Also not sure about the one under the ocean. Looks like a shot down bird and the character is not doing well.

the A bomb pic is thought provoking and yes the nudity isnt needed

And Gary Angus is awesome. Sorry to hear of his demise. Great talent. Reminds me of Frank Frazetta. I am only going to post this pic, but I encourage you to check out this URL for his complete repertoire.
