Panel 2: Bit of Demonlupine alliterative feel to this subtitle, though of course the verbiage isn't quite rococo and abstruse enough for his distinctive wordplay.

Panel 3: "Am I, now?" Expressionless & Masked Emp is expressionless, folks!

Next week on the webcomic serialization, time to take a look at the book proposal's interior pages! (Not a big SPOILER, I think, to hint that they're just as appalling as the cover illo.)

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!
