THE OMEGA MEN 32 PAGE 18 BY DAN SPIEGLE

nice pick upbuddy

Congratulations on a really nice page and here's hoping you are able to obtain the missing two pages to complete the issue!

Neat romance page!  Even with them being tailed, his feline instincts take over!

Excellent page! Might be my top from the issue - agree with you on panel 2, the lighting is superb! And the close up image overlapping two panels is really effective in the storytelling of outwit/outsmart the coppers! 

The 2nd panel is exquisite! But what interests me more than anything artistic is Felicity's use of "X'Hal". What connection does a talking feline have to Starfire and her fellow Tamaranians?

It's probably just a common/popular expression to use in that sector of the universe ;)

But it's not just an expression. I believe X'Hal is the Godess the Tamaraneans pray to. They live on a completely different planet than this feline Felicity. If people on OUR planet all seem to pray to different Gods, what are the odds that the people of Felicity's planet would believe in the exact same Godess as the people on another entirely different planet?

EDIT: Okay, a bit of research has revealed that X'Hal is the Tamaranean Godess on Prime Earth. But the introduction ofthat crappy New 52 reboot supposedly changed things. So one of them is Tamaranean and the other is Okaaran, whatever the hell that is. Way more than I want to know or care about.

Another great Spiegle Omega Men offering!  The standout is the second panel here (great POV and lighting, with a real "which cats watch the cat people?" vibe :) ), but I do love how the character is popped out of panel 4 and spans both panels 4 & 5 - you don't see that often!  Sweet add, F M - congrats!

Can't forget to comment on a Spiegle page! Is the end near for these Omega Men pages? I hope not.

Spiegle was always great with illustrating facial expessions!
