An image from Michael's childhood. "When I was a child, my friend and I gathered in front of a small black and white television in his bedroom and watched the adventures of, Captain Kirk, Spock, Doctor McCoy and the rest of the crew of the Star Ship Enterprise. I still watch the reruns today, but I believe the inspiration behind my caricature of the Enterprise, had it's roots from watching that small black and white television".

Michael has proven over and over again, that the pen is indeed mightier than the sword.
