Araña in “Totally Totem Teens” by Matt Duarte
This scene is set in current continuity, that means Anya is in her black Spider-Girl outfit. She and Rikki Barnes (Nomad) are staking out a place. This page is set up in six panels. The first one is a wide and small panel, across the whole page. Panel 2 and 4, 5, 6 are all square and similar size, with panel 3 being a small square panel joining 2 and 4.
Panel 1
Description: Anya and Rikki are laying down on a rooftop, with binoculars, looking at something in the distance. They are bored and killing time with random chatter.
NOMAD: Look, all I’m saying is the Kree must have done something to her, because there is no way those boots stay up by themselves.
ARAÑA: No, dude, when I was with Carol in the Initiative she told me what the secret is...
(OFF-PANEL CHARACTER, interrupting): ARAÑA!
Panel 2
Description: Anya and Rikki both have stood up and turned around. Before them (on the right of the panel), stands a guy, mid 20’s, lanky and tall, without much in the way of muscles. He is wearing a home made outfit, with antenna, some shell wings, and huge goggles. It’s supposed to look like a cockroach. This is a new character called LA CUCARACHA!
LA CUCARACHA!: Araña, al fin! Preparate a enfrentarte a tu nemesis mas mortal, LA CUCARACHA!
Panel 3
Description: Small panel, just a close up of Anya’s foot kicking LA CUCARACHA! in the face.
Panel 4
Description: A shot from farther back, we just see the silhouettes of Anya and Rikki, still standing in the rooftop, while LA CUCARACHA! is tumbling back.
NOMAD: What was that all about?
ARAÑA: No idea, but I hate cockroaches.
LA CUCARACHA!: Ay, ay, ay!
Panel 5
Description: Anya and Rikki are now looking down from the side of a building. On the street, there is an old car with antennas glued to the hood. LA CUCARACHA! has fallen on top of it, and he is laying there injured and convalescing.
NOMAD: Did that guy just fall on top of his own ride?
ARAÑA: Either that or he just ruined some poor exterminator’s car.
LA CUCARACHA!: Ayyyy...No puedo caminar...
Panel 6
Description: Rikki and Anya are swinging away from the rooftop now, with their backs turned towards the reader.
NOMAD: Dude, you really need to get some better villains.
ARAÑA: Oh shut up, isn’t your arch-villain like a giant dog?
LA CUCARACHA! (off-panel, mumbling): Araña... Soy solo el primero...
El Final?
