Adam's Comments: First off, kudos to Adam; kind of had some uncertainty on just how stuffed this one was, seeing as other than Alex it contains every character on the team at once, and he managed to get it done in one night. Some corner-cutting that happened to pull that off granted but it was still a pretty big undertaking, just impressive effort on his part.
But yeah, this was very much written as the, "Get everything together to shuffle off to the fight scene," page, though is a little more ground to cover before we get there. Still, very close, appreciate everyone baring with us through all the buildup and stuff. Had a lot we wanted to do with the characters bouncing off each other and different plot points we wanted to hit first and hey, what's the fun in a crossover that's nothing besides the big fight scene?
Admittedly do kind of wonder if this page might be a little awkward for the fact that, while everyone's present in it, the only characters with speaking roles are members of the Militant Gold cast and a single line each from Sareena and Grant. Kind of just a consequence of putting Eva in charge and having Juliet as her mouthpiece I guess, and being fair as they have the least representation among the gathered characters they've had multiple pages they're not present in at all, but still feel a bit guilty about it. Again, kind of part of why I opted to devote a page soon specifically to Blues.
So yeah, these are our teams! It's laid out clearly in the art and dialogue but for anyone who wants it clearly stated to better keep track as we move into things being a bit more hectic -
Frontlines: Sonia, Valerie, Protocol & Steven
In the building with the lock: Christina, Sareena, Lulu, Jenny & Titus
Guarding the building: Ivy League, Paxton, Ana, Nicky, Lore, Jake, Eva & Juliet
Running cover: Misty, Daryl, Occam, Andy, Grant & Dionysus
We've got 23 people working together for this so it's going to be a crazy ride.
Martin's Comments: Heh. Yeah, was really proud of one-nighting this page given the massive head-count. ^^ Too bad immediately after doing so I was sick for a few days and between that and my job I haven't been able to do much drawing since. Feeling better than I have in days so hoping I can make up for that tonight.
But yeah, great page laying out the coming match in an "Everyone is here" sort of way. Eager to see just how awesome this fight gets, and love the logic of each little team that's set up. ^^
On Martin's comment about how most of the dialog with this page was Eva, was tempted to throw in a bit with Andy saying, "I mean, I DID come up with the plan to beat Marvelous Man but, y'know, whatever" but thought it would've made him look too bratty.
