SO. It’s been a week now, so here's some of my favorite lineart from #XFAQtor #1. BEWARE OF SPOILERS, and do not click on the images if you want to get to have an unspoiled reading experience (if you have not read it yet)! Might comment a couple things on them down the thread :)
Those 3 first pages are fully Rachel’s. For some reason I saw her a little melancholic when she uses that power, particularly in this context. Probably Leah’s beautiful lines about oceans made me go for that. I kinda like it.
Also, noticed we never saw Aurora’s full face?

Again, possible spoilers ahead! These two played like a David Fincher scene in my head. It all went to that shot of the car, slowly turning with the camera inside and getting the team in frame through the windshield, her head tilting with the movement. Creepy. Also...
… it gave me a chance to start building some character stuff for Lorna. Have you noticed how Magneto COMMANDS with his power for stuff to move, or whatever? I thought that Lorna, NOT being Magneto, would rather move things herself, rotating with her hands as if holding them.
Of course it is also the scene where they really start to knit themselves together as a team, playing off each other’s powers and, particularly, perspectives.
Lots of moving parts in this book, people, on the surface and underneath. No pun intended :P #XFAQtor

Final bonus: an actual line from my e-mail when I sent this page to @mymonsterischic, @cracksh0t, @annalisebissa and @IsraelSilvaArt, also known collectively as Best FAQtor Team Ever:) #XFAQtor
