We continue serialization of Empowered vol. 12, which proved to be the final volume of the series in this specific graphic-novel format, though I was unaware of that unfortunate reality when I started work on the book.

After a comment on social media pointed this out, I have to wonder if acknowledging that vol. 12 is the end of the series in this format—as I did in the previous paragraph—might be discouraging readership of this webcomic serialization. Then again, to be honest, said serialization is performing so poorly nowadays that such speculation is completely irrelevant; nonetheless, with only another 140-odd pages to go, I intend to see this final graphic novel installment through, more out of dogged habit than anything else. Yay?
