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.

Panel 1: Decided to use a "camera tilted on its side" angle here because, hey, why the hell not?

Panels 2-4: And we've jumped all the way back in the Empowered narrative to Emp's first encounter with Ninjette in vol. 1. Lordy loo!

Panel 6: A fine head-and-shoulders shot of Ocelotina, IMHO. Well done, 2020-21 Me!

Today’s Patreon update: Originally done as a means of scratching 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. However, my vast archive of years of Patreon posts—extensive Empowered previews, work-in-progress updates on developmental projects such as fantasy comics The Chaste and the Chained and The Last Party, vintage con sketches, work stages on covers, "damsel in distress" commissions, life drawings & much, much more—remains available for Patrons' perusal.
