Gotta say, the first-person POV of this sequence does make for an even more alarming introduction of ol' Willy Pete than usual.

Next week on the webcomic serialization, we'll find out how the Empverse's scariest pyrovillain arrived here (well, more or less), before a superheated action scene kicks off in earnest.

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, such as updates on fantasy test project The Chaste and the Chained. Golly!
