C2E2 Photo Gallery – Tom Braaksma

And now Pads & Panels presents the Tom Braaksma C2E2 gallery. Why does Tom Braaksma get a gallery of his own, you ask? Well, he didn’t quite turn his photos in as early as everyone else for the daily posts, but we still thought he had some sweet shots, so we’re giving him his own space. Jedi do battle, Wolverine meets Capt. Jack, and zombie protesters feed off fear. All photos copyright Pads & Panels, by Tom Braaksma. (more…)
