We continue serialization of Empowered vol. 12, which proved to be the final volume of the series in this specific graphic-novel format, though I was unaware of that unfortunate reality when I started work on the book.

Note this page's extremely rare use of, in effect, narrative captions without actual caption boxes. Just trying something a li'l different, folks! I was trying a whole lotta narrative approaches in this volume that were a li'l different, in fact, though the success rate would be considered spotty at best. (Oh, well.)
