Panel 1: Enjoy more of my patented "meaningless ultra-techy background detail," folks! (I do recall a recent commenter mentioning that, ideally, he'd like to see meaningful ultra-techy background detail, but I can tell said commenter that you are looking at the wrong g-d comic artist if that's what you want.)

Howeva, note the semi-meaningful BG detail at left, in that we see some blobby, fleshy imagery indicating the presence of some form of biological ultra-techiness; this might be an early hint of gooshy bioshenanigans to come in a future volume of the series. (Might, I say, as I can't recall how far along I was in my planning for said future volume back in the creatively fecund summer of 2013.)

Today’s Patreon update: In an attempt to scratch 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. Golly!
