Pfft… Rookie hotshots and their dynamic entry poses… Heh heh.

Meet Nathan, the man who will eventually be known as… well… you can read up on Energize: Hunted to find out, if you don't already know.

To kick things off, reading the script Nepath wrote, Nathan is actually quite different from his future self (I was surprised myself), but that actually makes sense since a lot can happen in a year. Think of professional sports, for example, where most athletes evolve from their rookie year to their second year of their sport. Anyway, along with the outfit that Nepath noted he should be wearing at this time, I decided to give him shorter hair than how he's going to have it a year from now.


On another note, this page made me realize that older, actual landmarks are a real pain to draw up onto comic format thanks to it's many symmetrical details… I should've traced maybe, in retrospect…

EDIT:
I originally had Rime giving a middle-fingered gesture (not something Nepath wrote) from my own interpretation of the script, but thanks to DAJB who taught me about the more-localized insult gesture, I've edited the panel to have Rime giving the two-fingered salute (which is very much offensive in the U.K., so don't do anything remotely close to that sign around there).
