Hey! Where's the Artwork?


Panel A

The vortex stops, suddenly. Everything seems to hover in the air for just a moment, an unnatural calm that seems to suspend time. Tommy, Boogy, and Handsome all stare at Alice, hovering in the air above their heads.


Panel B

Everything comes crashing back to the floor of the parlor, including Alice. Boogy shields Tommy with his body as broken demons and chunks of masonry fall from the sky. Handsome dodges the falling debris as well.


Panel C

Handsome turns to look back at Samhain, confused and furious.

HANDSOME: "What the FUCK?"


Panel D

Baba Yaga clings to Samhain's back. Her hands draw tight the black thread that has resealed the Lord of Death's mouth. She holds the line taut and her smile reveals every last one of her iron teeth. Samhain speaks one word to the traitor, Johnny Handsome:

SAMHAIN: "Run."
