Chapter 8, A Voice in the Dark - November 14, 2018

                                


Commentary for November 14, 2018:

Another page I’m really heckin’ proud of. My only regrets are that I couldn’t get the entire bridge crew in shot in panel 1 -- it would have been good to show Captain Fennec’s XO, Commander Forrest at the tactical station (on Fennec’s right) -- and I also think the “going to warp” effect in panel 5 needs some refinement going forwards. But I’m otherwise very satisfied with this page.

Crewmen returning from previous chapters of Eon’s World Vol. 2 include Lieutenant Nevius at the helm and Lieutenant Hayes at communications. Chief engineer, Lieutenant Commander Hieronymus, who originally appeared in Eon's Comic, makes his Eon's World debut in panel 4. The rest of the crew are all new characters and, while they won’t necessarily be fleshed out in this story arc, I do have names for them all and I know what their roles on the ship are.

Fennec’s line, “The Terran Union expects that everyone will do their duty” is a reference to Lord Nelson’s famous signal from the Battle of Trafalgar, “England expects that every man will do his duty”. Of course, Fennec’s version is a lot more inclusive than Nelson’s. This is not the first time Fennec’s said something like this either. It was a bit of a go-to for him when setting off on a mission Eon’s Comic, too [and will be again in Eon's World Vol. 1].
