New couple of pages, we may be getting to something...
One of the things I was sure I wanted is the group being portrayed not as a bunch of no-sweat badasses able to cope with anything in the Galaxy, but rather as a gang aware of their self-limitations in this, you know, grimdark galaxy in which life is so fragile. These are not Stallone and the Expendables. So if a group of Orks is approaching, the wise move is a retreat.
But well, the whole point in a Warhammer universe is conflict, so we need our heroes to pew pew a little! (Remember, my idea was a growing climax throughout the whole series, from RPG/small skirmishes to full scale apocalyptic battles by the end of the story). This also serves to know a little more about Brent, we can see him as a group leader making tactical decisions, and we even get a hint about his past (would it be true?)
If things were not warming up enough, we also get to see that the Eldar fleet has finally arrived as expected, to accomplish the Great Harlequin's purpose (whatever that is), just in time! If they manage to break the Imperial orbital blockade, we may get to see some pointy ears in a few pages (spoiler alert, of course we'll do).
But before that happens, if you have to judge for Brent and Arieh's faces in that last panel, there apparently are a few more surprises to be unveiled...

You are doing just a splendid job of building up the tension.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to seeing how you treat the Eldar when they arrive in force!
Thank you! Hehe, right, our particular DEFCON is warming up in here! It will take a few pages to the Eldar to arrive, but they'll do it in style :D
