Alas, one such post went awry when the pictures I took of Mike's tattoos went AWOL on my computer, leaving me with a photo-less entry.
Mike has since sent me pictures, which I have included below.

Mike explained that he collaborated with Ralph Velez at Venus Modern Body Arts in the East Village on this design. He told me, "I came up with a drawing and then he fixed [it] up so it would work on my arm ... this yellow is a mix he does himself...". He also credited Jhonson Eteng as the graphic artist for this tattoo.
When Mike sent me the replacement photos, he sent along some extras, like this Superman piece from his leg: and this Green Lantern/Blue Lantern combo on his arm:
As Mike puts it, he's "a big DC Comics fan".
Thanks to Mike for sharing his love of comics through ink with us here on Tattoosday!
