For most of my time on Empowered, I would produce, at best, a quick sketch of a new character before drawing a comic page; often, in fact, I would just design new capes on the actual page. ("Just in time" character design, I suppose.)
However, Empowered vol.9 featured so many new characters during Emp's book-long run through a gauntlet of supervillains that I sat down and cranked out twenty-odd pages worth of chara designs before work on the main plotline got underway.
Wellp, here's the next set of said design sketches, along with their introductory shot late in the volume. (Note, alas, that the unrelated supervill Trunkotronic never made an appearance in the volume.)
Pretty sure I might have a few more vol.9 design sketches kicking around somewhere, so you'll likely see one more post in this series.
TOMORROW ON THIS HERE PATREON: More Distressed Damsel content for the $5+ tiers, though at present I have no idea what that content might be. (Trying to get ahead on Empowered vol.12 production is proving to be a bit of a challenge with weekdaily Patreon posting, alas.)
