Enjoy a kinda-sorta preview of the various Empowered one-shots included in this anthology collection, folks! IIRC, I bothered this motif from the opening title spreads of the Hisao Tamaki Star Wars: A New Hope manga adaptations.

Note that rather excessively optimistic "1" in the lower corner, expressing the ultimately wan hope that more such collections would follow. Further Guest Artists projects would indeed follow (and will be serialized here next), but Empowered Unchained wound up being a one-shot (albeit in trade paperback form) all its own.

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.
