Well, for one thing, Empowered is nominally a superhero title, yet it's drawn by a clearly manga-influenced artist. ... The unique thing about Empowered's artwork is that it's reproduced directly from my very, very tight penciled pages. ... grayscale repro of this type is tricky, but can be highly rewarding, I've found. ... In fact, Empowered's pages are just a tightened-up and cleaner version of how I've been doing my (notoriously tight) layouts for the last decade or so. Somewhat to my chagrin, almost everyone (or, at least, every artist) who's seen my so-called 'layouts' has said that they like them better than my published, inked-and-toned/colored pages. ... and roll with an extra-tight incarnation of my layout technique for this and other future work.
