The new Brainwave issue is about genetics and unlike the last issue on movies, this one was put together after some brain wracking efforts by the writers and editors.

In this issue I ended up using this style quite a bit and I am slowly getting efficient with it too. I guess it's the poster making which is helping me in getting fluent with this style.
