The nomenclature of this page is F1_ch23_p19_04_02, and this breaks down what I said before.

It makes sense when we say that because of edits in the normal thumbs, in-between pages would get an extra number attached. We see this on page 19_03_01 and page 19_03_02 as we see in the past two pages, but here we jump to page 19_04_02.There is no 19_04_01… at least I don't remember making one.

I don't even remember why I did this… my only guess is that this is the second attempt at this page. Sometimes I can't understand what I was thinking sometimes. :)

This page shows Abbot emptying all his salvos. There was an old 80s movie called the last StarFighter, that had a super cool move called the Death blossom…. oops should have a spoiler alert here… anyway this is Abbot going Death Blossom! It's pretty hard to depict total chaos in a readable way, but this came out pretty good!

I'm doing a lot more long shots where the small characters have less detail, but the environment becomes a character or story telling tool. It's been a nice challenge for me, since I'm getting mature in my art.

I think that ‘yargh’ on panel 2 is more of Abbot's frustration at his computer not realizing this is a life and death situation and it's still trying to be a gatekeeper to what he needs to do to unleash hell on the mudslide. What's a bit nice, is that the ‘yargh’ was an acceptable affirmation for his command. Guess ‘cause it starts with the letter ’y'. lol.
