COMMENTARY NOTE: I find myself mildly ill this morning (been sick all weekend), so I wouldn't expect a heavy dose of (free) commentary this week, folks.

Panel 1: I do quite like the Emo-ish neologistic verb "bean-spilled," gotta say.

Also, I'm happy to note that I almost certainly copy/pasted that shot of the Vorpal Sword from the page that introduced it in Empowered vol. 8, thus saving myself at least 1.5-2 hours of work as opposed to redrawing it by hand. Yay!

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!
