Okay,one more page,and that's all! Otherwise,no one will bother to buy the comic when it comes out! :p
Page five of chapter eleven of "The Devil's flower gambit". Alex ,having finished tending to his wounded arm,comforts the innocent he rescued from Lilith's clutches,who has suddenly been overcome by the emotional impact of her ordeal.
Once more,for your convenience,here's the synopsis of the story:
"ACE AND QUEENIE: THE DEVIL'S FLOWER GAMBIT"
What began as a routine surveillance assignment spirals into a labyrinthine nightmare for Alex and Denise when they learn that the shadowy international criminal organization WRAITH has gained possession of the formula for a potentially deadly new psychotropic drug.
Before they can determine their adversaries’ plans for the narcotic the heroic secret agent couple are forcibly separated from each other through the machinations of Countess Lilith Bathory- WRAITH’s unpredictable second-in-command.
However,Lilith is not working alone. For her own purposes she has formed an alliance with “Lord” Tozama Nariaki-the enigmatic head of Japan’s Black Cherry Blossom crime syndicate.

That is a specially formulated Coagulant spray that instantly "heals" over any wound by forming a temporary "Skin" made of an organic non-toxic compound over it,which lasts until the wound begins healing itself naturally,then it falls off harmlessly.like a scab. There is a real world version of this called "Quick clot", commonly used by Military Medics and Civilian EMTs,but "Quick clot" only as a liquid whiich must be fed into the wound via a tube,or as a patch. The spray Alex uses is a slightly more futuristic,not as yet developed idea.
Rusty, this is an unusually 'busy' page, but you make it work. The dialog is broken into small digestible bits, and the small images re-enforce the dialog: The number of panels allow me to see the expressions as Alex or Sarah Jane either talk or react to what the other is saying -- and that really adds an emotional charge to the sequence.
