1. Tom
Judge is crouched on the ground, looking at foot prints. There are signs of an obvious struggle. He is investigating.
CAPTION
The Thirteen Artifacts of Power were gathered.
2. Tom
is now standing up, looking around. He
knows he is being watched.
CAPTION
Thirteen wielders were brought together, and they changed
the world.
3. Hiding
in shadows, barely visible is Ian Nottingham.
He holds the Blood Sword in his hand.
CAPTION
If thirteen people can change the world when each holding an
Artifact.
4. Ian
Is mid air, leaping towards Tom Judge, who is activating The Rapture. He is mid transformation as Ian bares down on
him. Around Ian’s neck are the Ember,
Glacier and Heart Stones. He has killed
the barres and is after The Rapture hanging from Tom’s neck.
CAPTION
Imagine the power one man holding all of them at once would
wield.
Damn this is a cool page. You capture what I love about the Top Cow cliff hanger, its a big powerful moment which just hooks you for the ride of the next issue. Also you know who much I love Ian Nottingham as a character and I feel you nailed his tone. Great work.
ReplyDeleteGreat last caption/panel that sends the reader's mind spinning off into countless directions this story could take.
ReplyDeleteVery neat page, Ben. My favourite part is how the captions seem as if they're Tom Judge's, but Ian Nottingham's reveal puts that into question. By the end of the page, it's unclear who's talking, which is an interesting feeling. And the strong imagery really sells the whole thing (especially that last panel).
