The spire, inks
A second unlettered Superkillers ink page, four small panels over one open scene of costumed children looking up at a tall smoking spire. Top left, Beck and Sam shoulder to shoulder indoors; top right, a mummy blown apart by a shot from an armoured figure while a small girl in pigtails screams. Below them a close-up of a device against a face in glasses, and two narrow panels of a long-haired woman shouting and then sneezing. The lower half is one open scene: four costumed children seen from behind, looking up at a tall smoking spire, one of them holding a long sword.
Four small panels across the top half, hung either side of a bare tree and a plume of smoke that runs up the centre of the page. The bottom half has no border at all and is dominated by the spire, drawn as a steep triangle in ruled perspective, with the children ranged along the bottom edge as silhouetted backs.
None — black ink on white paper, with a few passages in a dark warm brown-black rather than pure black.
Ruled lines for the architecture against freehand for everything living, which is the page's whole structure. The smoke is drawn as outlined clouds and left empty inside, so the top half stays light and the spire reads as the solid thing.
Ink on paper, scanned flat. Line art, unlettered, with the balloons not yet placed.
Unsigned.
