Description
    They stood in a room with broken, peeling walls, but a room that clearly saw use as a rude laboratory, judging from the jury-rigged diagnostic devices, bits of scavenged glassware, bales of multicolored wire. The only light came from a bulb strung up over a workbench that had been fashioned from an old firedoor. When the plate slammed down behind him, the ringing had hardly faded from his ears before Gordon heard another voice, familiar but weirdly out of place.
   Leaning against the crude workbench as if it were a crutch, half in shadow, was his mentor from Black Mesa and, before that, MIT. Dr. Kleiner looked even more weathered than Barney. He wore an eyepatch over his left eye, and that side of his face was a mass of twisted scar tissue.
   “Yes, Gordon, it’s me. We had word you were coming, but even so, it’s strange to see you in this place after so long. You look. . .hardly worse for the wear. The last 10 years must have been easier on you than on the rest of us.”

Half-Life 2 Raising the Bar: Uncorrected Proof

Can't say I like the result, but whatever. Poster is from "Lady of the Tropics", btw, straight from IMDB.
