Going back to that last page, although I think it's a cool visual (and I really appreciate the positive feedback you all gave me) I think I also made some mistakes on it. One thing is that I covered up the visual clues (the 'B' on his chest, the fleur-de-lis on his head,…) that made it clear that it was the Bluenoser being wrapped up. I think not having colours also hurt it.

As for this page, I really don't like the last panel. Visually it's okay, and I was really wanting to test out drawing Blue in a dark setting, but from a storytelling perspective I don't think I should have gone with a close up of him. I should have pulled out, set the scene. As it is it probably gives the impression he's hiding somewhere in the dark. As you'll see on the next page, he's not.

ghostrunner – Unfortunately I wasn't really going for "grin" but I'm glad you liked it. So whatever works I suppose. :)

shastab24 – Although I have plans for revealing a bit more of his home life it'll only be touched upon in this story and possibly the next. But I am making it a priority to get going on that very soon.

Legend Comics – Thanks!

Locoma – Glad you liked it. :)

I am Candyman – I think it did come out well, it just means I'm slightly under the gun to get the next few pages done quickly.
