Panel 3: While the Empowered work process is supposed to be all about embracing imperfection, I couldn't resist fixing the text placement on "GOODBYE, JACOB", which was originally spotted waaaay too close to the upper black border. Whoops!

Panels 4-5: One final look into the proverbial "twisted mind" of Brainbow/Neurospear/Jacob...

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.
