Windin’ your way down Fremont Street

As Ed has worked on this book, the challenges change with every page. But sometimes we go back to something he’s done previously, and he gets to revisit it with new skills.

As Hawkins walks along the classic Fremont Street strip in Las Vegas to collect his thoughts, we are there, wondering where this is all going and why. I watched Ed develop a number of techniques to illustrate this page, and I’m so impressed.

Crowd work. It’s good for ya!

ED’S NOTES

It’s no secret that this first issue of Danger Team is a proving ground and classroom for my skill and knowledge as a comic book artist. I THOUGHT I knew a bunch, and there’s a lot of truth in the old adage that when someone realizes that they don’t know much, they begin to learn more.

The crowd scene in Panel 2 was a callback to one of the earlier pages, where Hawkins was going into the Diner. Sabrina and I like to refer to the guy that drew this page, as Page 4 Ed.

Page 4 Ed had no idea that he could make a crowd scene like Page 41 Ed could. So, my advice here is to be patient with yourself, don’t be afraid to try new things and learn new things.

Page 4 is a REALLY far distance from Page 41, but you’ll never get there if you don’t pick up your pencil and try.
