We won’t be visiting the Undernet very much, but every once in a while we’re going to have to check in with Zoey the Editor.
If you’ve read Indefensible Positions, you know that I like to mix up my art style. I think this draftsman-style inking looks pretty neat. It’s also very fast; I might be able to do two pages a week with a style like this. Learning that, alone, made the experiment worth it.

Roger: I am not a hacker. I hate the VR Undernet. I hate my old avatar. And I hate asking for help from...
Roger: Zoey! Zooooooeeeeey!
Editor: On the run again, Roger? Let me guess...you found the Genocide Man, and he wants to kill you.
Roger: No, everyone else wants to kill me.
Editor: Oh, nothing unusual, then. You're a cockroach, Roger, and I mean that with immense admiration. You can survive anything, even if you have to sell out a nun to do it.
Roger: She was a bad nun! She paddled me!
Editor: You can take it, Roger. That's why I send you out on these assignments. Plus, I'm your amazing editor. Whatever you can't handle, I can. Now tell mama what's wrong.
Roger: The Genocide Man is suicidal, and the entire project wants to kill everyone near him. Which, I must note, includes me.
Editor: Send me a download. I want to see everything.

You guys thought J.Jonah.Jameson was bad?, avatar or not, that is not the sort of thing one wants to see early Monday morning…….
She’s a real “hands-on” kind of editor, isn’t she?
At least she isn’t wielding a pair of scissors to do some editing… Yet?
Nice change-up in style RS 🙂
On another topic, I might be able to help you with your animation skills. I sent an email but I think it got killfiled :/
How long did you take to figure out the best posture for the hand to mimic the facial expression? I love that detail.
Nice avatar.
I’m Italian; connecting hand gestures to facial expressions is easy for me. 😉
Funny coincidence, there is a narco nicknamed la mano con ojos “the hand with eyes”, that was captured today in the morning.
He literally goes to “talk to the hand”.
