Salvador Anguiano – Mexico Here is a new image from Sal and some variant color ways. I asked him about it and he said, “It’s just a cool Batman walking towards you, meaning business, just saying, in a very cool, low voice “There’s nowhere to hide punk!” Now that I know this, it’s all I can see / hear when I look at these!
