It doesn't stand out too horribly. These days i'm used to seeing copied things placed over an image like that because of how much photoshop is used in American comics. To tell the truth, the symbol being such a minor piece of the overall image it doesn't draw attention as much as the detail in the skull itself which is quite excellent, especially around the eyes and nose...

Thanks, here's some info about the Valknut symbol:
[quote][b]Valknut[/b]: The Valknut's three interlocking shapes and nine points suggest rebirth, pregnancy, and cycles of reincarnation. The nine points are also suggestive of the Nine Worlds (and the nine fates) of Norse mythology. Their interwoven shape suggests the belief of the interelatedness of the three realms of earth, hel, and the heavens, and the nine domains they encompass.
The Valknut is also an important symbol to many follwers of the Asatru faith, who often wear it as a symbol of the faith.[/quote]

Hm, that's really interesting. You obviously know your runes. Now you've got me looking this stuff up. I've always been interested in norse mythology myself.
