Have you guys missed this? Really? :wink:
Brainwash has used the anonymous hoodie guy with his face hidden to depict Banksy before. I can think of Going to NY and Anonymous on the top of my head. Plus dude is holding balloons shaped in hearts which references the Girl with Balloon piece. Definitly a Banksy ref.

Fixed.

Also, goes without saying that Love is in the Air is the same name as Banksy's piece (commonly known as Flower Thrower).

Keyword heaven. :D

February is also Black History Month.

Wanda: I can't stand people. I hate them. Do you hate them?
Henry: No, but I seem to feel better when they're not around.
