Panel 2: Ominous hand shadow ahoy!

Panel 3: The hand-drawn "glitter FX" in this panel, achieved here via white-out application, are based on the special FX I so enjoy slathering over my full-color comics work. (Er, not that I did the slathering, as I would instead request that colorists like my bud Ryan Kinnaird or the lads of Guru eFX slap down such FX—including also sparkles and glows and lightsaber-style color auras—in the Photoshop stage of comics production on books such such as latter-day Dirty Pair, Gen13, Livewires and so on.)

Panel 3: What the heck is going on? Who might be behind this anomalous phenomena? Let's find out tomorrow, shall we? (We shall!)

Today’s Patreon Update: As this is a Monday, time for our weekly double dose of life drawings from 2017 (when I was cranking out photoreferenced sketch sets on a nearly daily basis) along with the high-res Photoshop raw scans for both of ‘em, available to all Patron tiers.
