Panel 1: TBH, "big whoop" is a bit of slang dating back to my bygone youth that seems a bit of a stretch for Havoc to be using, though his age and background remain undefined; plus, that might've been a Northeastern regional saying, as I don't recall hearing "big whoop" much when I moved to California 30-odd years ago. Still, the use of the phrase amused 2015 Me, regardless of verisimilitude.

Panel 2: Unspoken but, I think, implied by this image is that Emp was posed without her hair partially covering up her chest—as is usually the case—to add extra "thirsty rando" appeal. The question would be, whose idea was this? Mysterious!

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. 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!
