09 - Foreboding

Woo, official 10th upload!
This one turned out kinda like I had in mind. The search for the background was a pain in the ass, but eventually I found one that suited the mental image I had. I'm not completely satisfied about it, but every other change I made just made it look worse, so I'll have to make do with this. I guess it's because it's monday.
So here we have the Emperor's throneroom. The gys in the back are like royal guards. The guard is a tribute to Doom, one of the first games I ever played. As for Grak…well, he served his purpose. It's like he said a few pages ago, if he failed he'd be killed. The Emperor is a man of his word.
Fun fact: Abbadon is an Israelic name, meaning ‘Destroyer’. It took a while for me to find a decent name, but after AuroraMoon suggested that I went to look at on-line baby-name-lists, I soon found this one. Thanks Aurora!

This is the reason I love you Rut. Because of your awesome randomosity. :D

Yeah, you're supposed to look at it like Grak's trying to fend of the guard, but then gets shot and thrown backwards.

That background is rather awesome and worth the search ;) Is the third panel 2 green frog things the same one yeah?

I know...this was the best I could do...I've fiddled with it endlessly, but everything else looked even worse. I usually try to avoid hyphenating stuff.
