Yeah, I’m gonna skip the whole “fight then team up” trope. It’s much more fun to go the route of “team up then fight.”
Artist’s commentary: I originally drew the first panel with a border, but I took it out around the inking stage. I think it works, in contrast to the last panel, which I will someday redraw so it isn’t so painfully bad (it looked so much better in my rough draft — kinda cool, even).
Confused about Panel 6? It might have something to do with Page 5.
Artist’s commentary: Panel 2 is still one of my favorite panels in this whole issue. Page 10 also starts a tradition: on every page that I think I drew a really awesome panel, there’s usually a panel that I loathe to balance it out.
