Desktop Wallpaper: Paul Pope's The Masked Karimbah



Paul Pope posted a nice shot of the upcoming vinyl toy from Kidrobot based on The Masked Karimbah from Pope's THB series. I tweaked it slightly to serve as a desktop wallpaper. The toy is a limited edition of 300, only available at San Diego Comicon, and comes with a comic book and "secret vinyl throw-in."
