Today is INTERNATIONAL LIZA DAY, so here is a gift for everyone, not from me but from the amazingly talented comics artist P. Craig Russell. He's a frequent collaborator of Neil Gaiman and is also famous for his opera adaptations, and he's put his version of the O. Henry story The Gifts of the Magi up on his website for free. 12 pages of beauty start here; click on the picture to go forward.

It's quite a sentimental story, but Russell really makes it sing, right up to the jaw-dropping last page. Enjoy, and do have a happy INTERNATIONAL LIZA DAY.
