Now this! Now this is something special. The one element that always stands out to me about this webcomic is the sheer style of it all and this page practically oozes with style! The fact that it is almost entirely done in black already makes it stand out among much of the arts anywhere else. Webcomics or otherwise! This page is a perfect transition, a bit of play on the map graphic found in movies and television. I love how you made the page busy but not overwhelming. It strikes just the perfect balance between white and black and provides just enough detail to recap the previous events of the previous pages and sets up the overall atmosphere. I think if I had the challenge of getting someone to read this by showing them one page, it would be this one. The stylized depiction of the main characters makes me all the more interested. And responding to the above comment. That does look like a caricature of Seattle, Washington near the bottom. Considering all of the rain that city is known for...it very well could be Seattle!
