Spicy Kindred Spirits pre-tf story…

So these two pages are a layout for a preamble to the second tf at the museum siege. Gabrielle reveals that she needs answers about the plant and the green creatures of the past as well. This is also the first pass at dialogue which I will polish as I go. The backstory is Gabrielle has been experiencing a slow exposure to gamma radiation at the reservation where she grew up. She has experienced micro-hulkouts throughout her life but they are steadily escalating. Solar flares and super hot summers fuel the hulk within, steadily rising to a boiling point with the arrival of David Banner. Banner’s gamma signature is just what will send Gabrielle over the edge.

In the coming pg 3, the interaction is interrupted as the Navajo malcontents siege the museum. Gabrielle is locked in the display. David is struck after defending Dr. Williams from Rick, Frank, and Little Jim. Outraged, the surge of adrenaline causes Gabrielle to fully hulk-out.

On pg 1, panel 3, that’s a flashback to the first episode after the first tf, where he sees himself reflected in the water as he changes back.

Update next Wednesday.
