it all is.

on SPIDER’s face.

END PAGE
This seems like an after credits sequence of a film, it fits in with the over all whole and adds a nice punchy element of humour to the close. Very nice page.

Great postscript, MK.
Haha. Awesome curveball here, MK. And great use of one of the series' best jokes to support that final moment. Fun stuff.
ReplyDeleteThe repetition of panels/viewpoint are what sells the page and the humour here. Great use of the technique.
