While I didn't specify any particular setting or background for this scene while writing it, artist James E. ‘Doodle’ Lyle had moved six different times in a couple of years before drawing this page, and felt having Danny and Rita in the process of moving in together would be apt, and I have to agree.
For those of you who write comics, or aspire to: listen to and trust your artist, and give them the freedom to make the material better. Collaborate, don't dictate.

James says thanks for the compliments. He's an amazing talent, the only artist I've ever worked with that I never doubt he can pull something off. He can do slice-of-like realism just as easily as the most fantastic imagery.

Well, for this level of good, I'd collaborate with anyone haha
