Well happy Guy Fawkes Day/ Bonfire Night. On such an occasion I give you a Codename V/Guy Fawkes chibi.
'V' is from the awesome comic 'V' for Vendetta by Alan Moore. I heartily recommend the comic, theres a movie coming out that may be good. I really have no idea what to think of it right now.
And now an explanation for those of you not versed in quirky British history. Here is a little rhyme that sums most of Guy Fawkes up. Rhyme yoinked from Here, more info and such on it
Remember, remember the fifth of November,
Gunpowder treason and plot.
We see no reason
Why gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot!
Guy Fawkes, guy, t'was his intent
To blow up king and parliament.
Three score barrels were laid below
To prove old England's overthrow.
By god's mercy he was catch'd
With a darkened lantern and burning match.
So, holler boys, holler boys, Let the bells ring.
Holler boys, holler boys, God save the king.
And what shall we do with him?
Burn him!
