I have to ask… you’ve said this all ends in October. Do you have it all mapped out already, day by day? Do you have times where as you’re putting a page together you realize you just have to add this one or two panels because it just fits?
Everything is written from now until the final page, but I might tweak dialogue and drop in an extra panel or two if a better idea strikes me in the moment.
What I really love about this (aside from all of it!) is that nobody is all like ‘Holy crapsicles! THAT is what Emma really looks like?!’. And it’s not down to bad writing, where focus is so intent on one aspect of the scene where little things like ‘…and everyone freaks out…’ gets (understandably) forgotten. What I really love about this is that everyone’s so used to the weird that Emma walks in with three eyes and all hulked out and they don’t even skip a beat. Like ‘Well of /course/ Emma really looks like that.’ and they don’t even think about it, they just move on. And for their reality that’s just totally normal.
Also, weird enormous and allied is what they really really need right now. Sensibly they’ll wonder about minor things like “how” later. Three eyes, though. Bogglin’
I admit I am curious about the three eyes. My current theory is that the third eye gives some kind of ‘aura vision’, allowing her to beat invisible creatures senseless just as effectively as if they were visible. 🙂
Also not ruling out the possibility she can fire lasers from her eyes.
Vicious sarcastic put-down lasers! The kind of vicious sarcastic put-downs that only cats would be capable of. 😉
One zap from them, and the monster is huddled in the corner, crying about how no-one loves it, it never gets invited to parties, and has anger-management issues.
Well… they’ve had some time to adjust. Brett’s Santa, Jeanie’s Mrs. Claus, Charlie’s a wizard, Sam can literally alter reality as a wielder of the Narrative, several of the group has met other mantle bearers, and Emma’s been a talking cat for years. So their life has been on the “interesting” side for a while.
Dude, the woman DOES NOT FLAP.
Amy has encountered emotional depths and upsetting things and handles it like a champ.
She doesn’t need to know more, Amy is *that* grounded.

In short, pretty much the production process of every great comic ever. Well, maybe not Alan Moore.
The Title has never been truer than in this moment.
We need a street fighter team battle pick-your-fighters type screen for this shit.
Well… funny thing… #tease
What type of voice Emma have in this form and her cat form? Because is so badass this form!
*boss music starts*
It’s getting much harder to wait out Tuesdays and Thursdays as this fight escalates…
By the power of Christmas – eat coal!

Quality writing, sir.

(Sorry, lack of sleep getting to me again!)
All cats have three eyes. It’s just that the one is normally always invisible. It’s why they can see ghosts and things.
Intriguing… 🙂
Makes me wonder what cats from Ulthar can see…

Thank you very much!
Someone get the LIGHTSABER CANE 🙂
THAT’S WHAT IVE BEEN SAYING!
….
or at least meant to say, not sure if I made the comment or not earlier.
Someone did. Not sure if it was you or not. Too lazy to go back and check.
I have to say she’s incredibly chill that a talking house cat just went ‘intelligent hulk’. Kinda makes you wonder what kinda other crap she’s seen.
she really did shrug that off pretty easily and just rolled with it. biggest ‘meh, ok’ I’ve seen yet
It makes me think maybe she knows more than is let on.

*chanting* emma, momma bear. emma momma bear!
“Me and Mama Bear are gonna wreck this heifer!”
Damn. That needs a Missy Elliot beat behind it.
Oh, right. The cat. Now I get it.
