Volume 5 Page 77

This scene arguably deserves a sounding of the ol’ Overdialoguing Alert, but did feature some critical dialogue that had be covered in this single page. Still, I can see a few word balloons I could have trimmed or cut outright without overly endangering the integrity of the sequence.

Panel 1: I’d initially thought the “techy” background in this scene means that it’s taking place aboard the “d10” space station, but a line of dialogue later in the series hints that it might not, when Spooky refers to “my bed.” Then again, maybe this is Spooky’s room aboard the d10? Certainly possible, as the ginormous thing has more than enough capacity for any superhero needing living space. 

Panel 3: And that’s why Mindf**k never speaks aloud, and why she wears that Geordi-LaForge-via-X-Men’s-Cyclops visor thingie. I’m honestly not sure how far back I had this in mind, but then again, I already had her entire character arc planned out long before her first appearance in Empowered vol. 4.
