One of the first Dutch #earlymodern comics printed in #Antwerp, showing a goat as a patient who visits a wolf as a doctor in his surgery, viewing the urine of the patient. Spot the #books, the glasses and the linen bin. ca. 1530-60 and read the funny text. https://t.co/dXm7npeE3r https://t.co/NukThoVJRl

Ed Elric is one of my all-time fav character designs. Most humans in FMA have casual clothes that fit their cultures and time period, and then here's this edgy little twerp clad in the most obnoxious leather outfit and wild hair. Tells you EVERYTHING you need to know about him.
