Final Round is a riff on Shonen manga—eight pages set at the apex of a tournament arc… That doesn’t exist.
How will Kid beat his rival, Vera, with a broken arm? And how will Vera, who knew Kid’s brother, break Kid’s… heart?
A short form experiment, from Andrew Leamon and Fabian Lelay, lettered by Lucas Gattoni!
Final Round
Andrew and I went back and forth on a few rounds of this script, before Fabian drew up his layouts. I gave notes on those, too. I really like the craft necessary to making a short page count with a big story work—this was a fun set of pages to work on!
