My way-too-tight layouts for "Unnamed Robot Comic" issue #3, pt.2!
🕑 Added 2021-12-03 14:01:03 +0000 UTC(UPDATE: Here's a link to our previous installment, in case you'd forgotten what the heck was going on in the series.)
Behold, the next set of my layouts for issue #3 of 2004's Marvel mecha-team miniseries Livewires, titled here as "Unnamed Robot Comic" as I'm more than a tad dubious about identifying this series of posts publicly. Keep this to yourselves, won't you? (The joke of using the title "Unnamed Robot Comic", by the way, is that Livewires' mecha protagonists consider the term "robot" to be an offensive slur.)
The final art on the series was done by my old bud Rick Mays (and the fine inker Jason Martin and the coloring studio Guru eFX, lest I forget) , but as you can see I cranked out insanely tight, fully dialogued, Sharpie-and-pencils layout pages for the series ahead of time; not only was this approach a faaaar from cost-effective use of my worktime, but in retrospect I feel that these layouts constricted Rick from drawing the beautiful faces and figure work he produced for other books. (Oh, well.)
Anyhoo, stand by for more Unnamed Robot Comic layouts later in the month, okay?
NEXT TIME ON THIS HERE PATREON: You can expect a bonus post of I Am Empowered either over the weekend or later next week; beyond that, at the moment I'm not quite sure what's going up when, thanks to the semi-randomized "M/W/F+" posting schedule I'm using nowadays.

Beautiful layouts!

Rereading this is just making me wish there was a ton more of Stem Cell, Social butterfly, and Hollowpoint Ninja to be had.
