Sorry for the delay! Things have to be very hectic in order for me to neglect signifikat… and believe me, this year started extremely hectic for me.

Thanks for reading and commenting.

JNP: I know! I'm sorry, I'll give my thoughts on the previous page later (next week, probably). I just don't seem to find the time. However, I'm going to reply by commenting on this page, so hopefully you'll forgive me!
The placement of the "damn"-box is supposed to guide (that is, force :P) your gaze down the 1st panel, and not right to the next. I know it doesn't meet comic readers' intuitions too well, but as I said, I'm trying to guide the reader here rather than meet his expectations. The reason for this is: I want your gaze to go down the 1st panel, then up again in the second panel, so transitioning to the window in the third makes sense. If I had placed the "damn" higher, your gaze probably wouldn't go up the building. At least, those were my intentions. They may have failed :P
Also, if you look at the previous page, it was Ed's surroundings which de-materialized, rather than himself. On this page, I kept my pencil lines in the first two panels to show the transition from his POV to the little girl's solid black-and-white world.

JNP(2): Right, I think I'll change the sentence's placement for the print version.

DAJB: Hey, where were you? You know you should be here every Thursday ;-) Glad you liked the cocktail… cheers!

mmm bacon0, man in black: Thanks!
