Season 3 Bottlecap Art

We polled millions of people around the world that reside above the 30th Parallel North and asked them one question: What does the month of April mean to you? Overwhelmingly, the top two answers were 1) the coming of Spring in earnest, and 2) the release of a new season of Glass Cannon Bottlecaps. A...
