An Honest Man

And here you have it- why Hawkins got the assignment in the first place. Why he was sent down the rabbit hole of investigating all of the rest of the Danger Teams. Why the Agency briefed him as a professional courtesy.

Because Albatross is retiring, and the Admiral needs an honest man by his side, to ensure he isn’t becoming Machiavellian.

So here we are. Again, hopefully this would read better in a page-turning book instead of one page a week, but that’s the lot of webcomics and long-form storytelling. There’s a little more to see for this book, but hopefully this answers all the questions we laid out over the course of this book.

So what do you think?

ED’S NOTES

Now. Here’s a page where I learned a bunch about balance and application of knowledge REALLY fast. 

There are a LOT of things going on in the background of my life, which foster organizational chaos. They make it a challenge to overcome and make sure that I put together a page that does its best, through my current skillset, to bring justice to the story itself.

This page gave me the opportunity to push the camera to some fun angles and places, using the Larry Hama map that he posted about on social media, and highlight what the script called for. 

The backdrop to all of this was that my digital file crashed and I needed to use the most recent proof in order to quickly recreate the page.

One lesson here was that one should think ahead and plan for any eventuality. Like say a digital file crashing, so now they get backed up in the Cloud, and on a Solid State Drive. 

A great supplemental lesson is that one should have confidence in themselves and put lines down as if they mean it, rather than timidly sketching out lines in the inking process. 

The timidity shows in the ink lines, and the work suffers. 

Fear of failure can only bring about failure and the results really aren’t the best product that you can offer. Welcome mistakes and learn from them. 

I hope you all love this page as much as I do now. It’s an important one to me.
