Panel 1: As opposed to yesterday's shot of the squiggly white highlights along the curving surface of the Vorpal Sword's cockpit canopy—which featured a black outline along said highlights—here I tried out a new and definitely more successful approach in which I left the white areas outline-free. Yay for ongoing artistic experimentation, folks! Note that my ambition with the ongoing and seemingly endless ordeal of writing and drawing Empowered vol. 12 is to try out something new on every page, but I can't quite claim to have achieved that lofty ambition as often as I'd like.

Panelo 4: Might Emp's supersuit indeed have a trick or two up its sleeve, folks? Well, maybe!
