Splash pages! Tons of fun, but very hard to do well. You've given the entire page to one panel, you should put effort into making it SHINE. To be honest though... This doesn't shine. It's a very boring angle, and the expressions are lacking. To compound that, one of the characters has his face blocked, further obscuring his expression. I want to know how he feels about this destination, but I have no way to tell. Does he have any history there? If it's "the city of flying monkeys," I'd hope he's at least passingly familiar with the place. Is he excited to go there? Apprehensive? Sad? I can't tell. (Also, I'm ditching the anonymity, it's pointless.)

Magenta will be coming back soon. Long Delay due to my computer being fixed because of a computer virus. :/
