DescriptionA very quiet setting up page that may look dull at first glance but offer some nice storytelling and craftsmanship from Spiegle (like he was capable of anything else).The first panel shows us the titties bar owners very pleased with their recette of the night (due to Felicity’s performance). The quiet backgrounds set up and ground the scene nicely. By their body language and expressions, you can tell they are a bit seedy as well. As they go out to their business, we get a very nice outdoor scene of that alien planet, which again, is nicely established by Spiegle: the architecture and landscape is obviously different (though the two moons could seem too obvious a tool, it immediately tells you are not in Kansas anymore). The panel gives us a nice sense of scale as well. The third panel is my favorite as it is so cinematic. In the sense it serves to establish the threat coming from above while the potential victim looks up to a faint sound he heard. The panel borders being so close are boxing him which is a great visual device. As the fourth panel widens the scene some, the victim is also taking some steps to protect himself by going for a gun and taking a defensive stance. Then we get the cliffhanger panel as a shaking gun holding hand is not so courageously pointing at the threat that is about to come out of that black threatening area (and leading the reader’s eye to that bottom right corner of course). Once again, Spiegle makes it look so effortless here while the visual read is oh so fluid. This is so good that it is storyboard material. (not such a dull page in the end it appears 😉) Social/Sharing |

Nice to see the nearly complete story by Spiegle continue! I really like that 2nd panel that highlights the alien planet and setting outside Rhundi's Place.

As Rick and Kavi say, I, too, love the setting in the 2nd panel. But as you say, Fred, I really love the 3rd panel best. At first glance it might seem like a random throwaway panel, but in context of the story it is anything but. I love the casual glance as he looks up, but I especially love the combination of that panel being placed DEAD CENTER on the page and the fact that it is so narrow, making it feel like the character is in imminent danger, just because he's so "boxed in". The whole thing feels and looks like some sort of space opera that would've been televised during the 1970's, particularly due to the very cinematic looking storytelling elements.
