We continue serialization of the collected version of the three-issue 2017 miniseries Empowered and the Soldier of Love, written and laid out by me and featuring full-color artwork by the Chilean webcomic artist Karla Diaz.

Note that this story saw print in the same timeframe as Empowered vol. 10, which was when Ninjette acquired the "magic katana that can cut through anything" as a bequest from the late Captain Katana; so, this scene's sword might well have been able to legitimately endanger both Emp and El Soldado. (Can't say that I recalled this scene whilst working on Empowered vol. 11, which featured a Neurospear-puppeted 'Jette similarly slashing away at Emp.)

Today’s Patreon update: Originally done as a means of scratching out more worktime to complete the long-gestating Empowered vol. 12, I've switched over to a Monday/ Wednesday/ Friday Patreon posting schedule that won't feature the fixed content format I previously used. So, who knows what today's post might feature? Could be Life Drawing or Distressed Damsels content (both of which are featured at least three times per month), or something in the Work Stages, Vintage Con Sketches or Design departments, or possibly something entirely new, such as updates on fantasy test projects The Last Party and The Chaste and the Chained. Golly!
