Puzzle Description:

V for Vendetta is a ten-issue comic book series written by Alan Moore and illustrated mostly by David Lloyd, set in a dystopian future United Kingdom imagined from the 1980s about the 1990s. A mysterious anarchist named "V" works to destroy the totalitarian government, profoundly affecting the people he encounters. (FYI quoted from wikipedia)

Awsome Nancy, you can also talk about the film from the Wachowski brother staring Nathalie Portman and Hugo "agent Smith" Weaving. A clever adaption of the graphic novel

He was fun to draw, he has such distinctive lines which made it easier.

whew. That was a toughy. I was 75% done and I had to clear it all because I messed up somewhere in the middle and I couldn't figure out where. My fiance was making fun of me.

Now I can get to cleaning my house. :)

This was So-o-o-o fiddly!

Got 99% of the puzzle with line and color logic. It was the last few pixels of the fine lines in the center that really took some figuring. Wonderful image and well rendered!

Nicely detailed picture!

Solving it was like #13 for me, too. My finish:
I used some edge logic on the 3 in C34 to place a black in R32C34.
After a little line logic, I used 2-way logic on the 2 in R32: it cannot be put in C30-31, otherwise we get a contradiction on C33 in two steps (R32C33 would also be black). So R32C32-33 are black, and LL to finish.

solved - two reverts at the very end.
