InkTober - Burn After Reading - Page 3

Previous page.

As discussed previously, we're working from Simon Fletcher's InkTober prompts, specifically the fourth group of four from the Steampunk list - The Good Copper, The Bad Copper, The Doc, and The Illusionist.

Page 3

1 - Close on Prometheus' forearm as a huge blade slides out, pushing a foot or two beyond its hand.

PROMETHEUS (off-panel): Now, Mr. Fawkes.

SFX: shnkt!

2 - On Cynthia still sitting / lying on the floor, looking on in horror at Prometheus cutting off Fawkes' head (an action that is occurring off-panel). Blood is splattering all over Cynthia and the wall behind and floor below her. It's pretty gratuitous.

PROMETHEUS (off-panel): You have something I require.

FAWKES (off-panel): nonono--!

SFX: SPLRCH!

3 - On Prometheus smashing a hole through the wall to the outside world by throwing his entire body / shoulder through it. Debris flies every which way as the robot sails through with ease. You don't need to draw attention to it, but its arm should be pretty bloody and it should be holding Fawkes' severed head (maybe like a football).

SFX: Krakka-boom!

4 - Cynthia is up and running towards the open hole in the wall, gun drawn and ready. Fawkes' body is lying discarded on the ground, positioned in some way that the fact that it doesn't have a head anymore isn't immediately apparent (maybe behind something or in a shadow). Except, of course for the fact that blood is pooling out around where the head should be.

CYNTHIA: Shit. We gotta go after it, Fer.

5 - Outdoor shot looking at the outside of the building. Ferand and Cynthia are on the top floor. The apartment is generally unremarkable, save for the hole Prometheus made in the wall through which we can see Cynthia. She looks behind her back into the room.

CYNTHIA: ...Fer?
