MTGinktober forges on Day 7, "Passport," starring Professor Onyx!

The limiting factor here was time--fortunately felt relatively rested, just took a while to get the gag all together.  The idea is, What if characters were having a hard time with their passports at the airport because their present depictions look totally different from their debut depictions?  So I jammed three guest stars in there who didn't get to anchor the piece because I stumbled on the idea of Liliana as Onyx trying to cheaply forge her documents and getting called out by Dour Port-Mage

Fun Facts: This is Professor Onyx's second MTGinktober appearance, and Liliana's tenth(!), including all her four appearances as Lil'iana, too, which I don't totally count as a separate character, but they kind of are three distinct enough characters--and that's not even counting her super fan

Easter Eggs:  The passport photo is Yoshitaka Amano's Liliana Dreadhorde General.  Waiting in line are the fellow "never match their original depiction" characters--Ashnod, Flesh Mechanist; Krenko, Mob Boss; and Sakiko, Mother of Summer.  The Chain Veil comes from The Last Hope illustration.
