Panel 2: Ehh, decided to mix things up a tad by putting stylized floral patterns on Emp's bedsheets. Yay? And lo, a comforter at the bottom of the panel, which arguably should be pulled up over all three for extra comfiness, but of course I wanted a clear view of their figures for this establishing shot.

Imagine, if you will, sirens sounding and lights a-flashing to indicate "ALL HANDS ON EMP!"

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, vintage con sketches, work stages on covers, "damsel in distress" commissions, life drawings & much, much more—remains available for Patrons' perusal.
