I'm so happy you posted this despite the battle falling through. This is a fantastic comic and nothing gets me more hype than people continuing their character's story/ continuity from tournaments. I thirst for personal canons, and this one got me invested. art wise, your style is so nice and appealing to me, the subtle expressions shone for me, I loved Sister Jet's expressions towards the end of pg 10. I think if I could crit anything, there was a bit of an over-reliance on gradients here for me, especially with the grey backgrounds, it made things look a little flat and samey. I'd love to see your experiment with other methods, maybe screentones? That being said this was a great comic, I'm so excited to see what you make next!

Love the colors and great action panels! This is a rrally neat story you have going here and I quite interested in Blake's story

Swampy this was so nicely done! The use of blues and reds was very nice! Great story and use of opponent as well!

That was a fantastic read! I really love the portrayal of every character here and super enjoying your color choices! Keep up the wonderful work~

This was really good! Beautiful art, I liked the pacing and the expressions are real neat. My only critique would be that the action scenes could have more of a punch to them so the impact is felt even more. It doesn't mean it takes away any enjoyment, though. Great work!

Good! Thank you very much for being patient with me throughout all my unexpected and horrific ordeals. I am very grateful and happy with what you've done here. A portion of these story details were informed by a back to back conversation between us about what Blake and Quick are like as people. This was open ended enough that I could still feasibly do what I intended to do (although that might be ambiguous).
