I'm putting together a crossover project for next year that will run through multiple comics and hopefully benefit the Hero Initiative.  If you're interested in participating, e-mail me at karamesser@hotmail.com or PQ me on this site.
 
Top page: Panel 6 actually has a grammatically correct sentence from the Runner, but I figure it'll happen.  Also, on this page we finally get an allusion to the title of the comic.  "Fearless" is slang in some parts of the world for "awesome" or an equivalent.  Not where I live, but such is as it is.  My themed issue naming led me to this title, though until I name an issue more obviously in the theme, people may wonder why I have such titles that may only thinly relate to the plot.
 
Bottom page: Have I mentioned my inability to draw dinosaurs?  It's pathetic how badly I draw them.  But the big thing on this page is, of course, the cameo of Life and Sally from Life and Death.  Steve wasn't at the 2011 Caper, but Sally is a fellow reaper.  Life is incredibly poorly done, but I blame my inking pen there.  It can't ink as fine as I wanted and I subsequently messed up Bobby's mask.  For Sally's head, I darkened my pencils, which is annoying in itself, because I still had to erase a bit of penciling around it, and my eraser may be a little too good in that regard.  But I got it done, so yay!
