Spider-Verse - Spider-Man 2099 - Nic J Shaw

                                                               Spider-Man 2099


Panel One
Miguel, in costume, mask in hand, is walking away from Dana, Net Prophet and Xina. He storms towards the reader, battered and bruised with a look of frustration on his face.

Dana:
Spider-Ma—Miguel! Wait, he’s—

Miguel:
Don’t Dana, we’re done with this.

Megacorps isn’t going to put their plans on hold while we argue what to do, and who should do what.

Xina:
At least let Net Prophet come—

Miguel:
No!


Panel Two
Miguel rests a hand on the frame of an open window. He’s looking out into the city, his back turned to the group.

Miguel:
No more relationships. No more partners. No more games.


Panel Three
Miguel crouches in the window sill, looking back at Dana, Net Prophet, and Xina.

Miguel:
I do this alone.

Panel Four
Xina looks furiously at Dana. Net Prophet stands around awkwardly.

Xina:
You know this is all your fault right?

Dana:
Me!?

You two were as unstable as the molecules that make up his suit even before I came along!

Net Prophet:
Okay… I’m just going to…

Panel Five
Same as Panel four, though now Net Prophet has teleported, only leaving behind a small puff of matter, a fragment of a sign that he was ever even there. Xina and Dana are staring at the space where Net Prophet was.

SFX:
Pop!

Xina:
Ugh

Dana:
       Men!

  1. Pretty well written transitory page here. Though I can't help thinking that it might have been more interesting to know what happened to precipitate this decision from Miguel. All in all, though, solid opening salvo, Nic...welcome to TB!
