2015 was the first year since making his debut in 1999 that we didn't see Henry Shefflin in action for the Kilkenny seniors.
One of the greatest hurlers ever, he collected his 10th winning medal after last year's All-Ireland win against Tipperary in a replay. He decided to call it a day in early 2015, leaving behind an illustrious career in the Black and Amber. The comic strip I made here was inspired by an article in the Irish Times by Keith Duggan (Link here) I had originally sketched this out earlier in the year but completely forgot about it until the recent news of his upcoming autobiography. He proved a big thorn in Wexford's side down through the years but every county that came up against him and his team felt the brunt of his powers too. Long live King Henry.
