Webcomic readers won't be able to tell due to this online format, but this one was a "full-bleed" page in which the artwork extended all the way out to the edge of the printed page, as opposed to being bordered by (very) large black gutters as most Empowered pages are. You could maaaaaybe perceive the difference with this page's slightly higher level of fine detail (due to a larger-than-usual original size), but I rather doubt anyone other than myself could do so.

Panel 1: Ouch!

Panel 3: Oof!

Panel 5: Ungh!

Panel 6: "Fromage" being French for "cheese," of course, as Strapping Buck takes this (flashback) selfie.

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.
