Chapter 2 begins with our stranger. We still don't know a lot about him…but maybe some more clues will emerge in this Chapter? At least now you know what he looks like clean-shaven. I enjoyed doing the 'aspect to aspect' panels (as Scott McCloud would say) on this page, giving a sense of place and pacing. I'm also very pleased with the last panel - I achieved what I wanted to with that page, giving an interesting perspective but also going in close on the character in a contemplative state, which is what this page is all about. This is also the first page in the comic where I actually had to refer to photographic reference material - I still haven't quite firgured out the back muscles yet. I promised more nudity - and here it is! Before some of you start worrying that this will turn in to some sort of Beefcake comic, don't worry, I hope you can see that this is entirely gratuitous and since Saphyr showed some skin in the first Chapter, it is only fair that a male protagonist gets the same treatment in this Chapter. My approach to this comic is that I will not shirk away from violence or nudity or draw neutered characters - but it will never be purely gratuitous.
