The Soldier of Love p.85
Posted June 19, 2025 at 12:01 am

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.

Panel 4: Ehh, not sure how I'm gonna handle the Spanish-language content in the new Soldier of Love miniseries I'm working up (or was working up, until an cover gig on a screamingly tight deadline landed on me), but I doubt I'd leave it untranslated as I did here; for one thing, reworking the dialogue repeatedly until English cognates pop up in the Spanish is so time-consuming that I wouldn't consider doing this again.

And lo, thus endeth Empowered and the Soldier of Love, folks. (I'll cover some bonus material from the miniseries' collection over the next few days of posts.) How did you like it, Empowered readers?

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. However, my vast archive of years of Patreon posts—extensive Empowered previews, work-in-progress updates on developmental projects such as fantasy comics The Chaste and the Chained and The Last Party, vintage con sketches, work stages on covers, "damsel in distress" commissions, life drawings & much, much more—remains available for Patrons' perusal.
