.... You probably wonder why the hell did I named the pic so.... (since it's so different from what you think.....)

This pic was inspired by a Chinese novel I read. In the foreword of the novel, the author gave a brief description on what the "grim reapers" in the Chinese folk legends looked like (one dressed in white and the other in black. The white one always have a mischievious grin on his face, as if he's planning something nasty to trick you for your soul. The black one always looks gloomy, as if he really didn't have a choice in what he's doing) I just have to draw this after I read that.....

I know that according to legend, one was suppose to be tall and the other was short. But heck, I think it would be more fun if the 2 of them actually look alike, since that would confuse people as to who they're actually meeting....

EDIT: Re-sumbitted the file as JPG.... since the transparent background turns weird in thumbnail mode in my PNG version....
