Description
Just squeaking in before the deadline, here's page one of my entry for the new and the arrival of a new character - Centauri!This page is a bit of a rush job, but it fulfils the brief of beginning our story with a close up of our hero's closed eyes and moving on to show her waking to the brave new world (although right now we have no idea what that world might actually be like!)

Nice opening page, basically tells it how it is on the first few panels though also gives off an equally mysterious vibe about the past. I'm wondering if the lack of age thing will be explained at some point... which I am sure it will

Er... yeah! Just don't expect it to make any sense!

What on earth is this? A challenge entry by Kostmeyer?!
I must be dreaming!
Very cool start, Kost! I like it already

I think we all remember that classic Jones case.

You've been to Quantico too, eh?

It seemed to fit - I had a much more ambitious opening in mind - but time - and the fact I re-read the instructions and saw I could only do three pages - put a stop to that! Still, I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out.

In some ways, this works very nicely as she's just included in the game. Β In a way, she's getting an origin story here.

Well yeah, exactly - I figured I had to do it this way - much better than just hoping people read the bio to actually show it - although there's a lot more detail to her origin to come if the challenges steer me in that direction!

hehe, yeah, isn't that always the battle with a bio? Β You never know if they're actually going to read it. Β 'sides, origins stories are fun.

Guess I wasn't the only one having their character wake up in a hospital bed.

Have you done that too? I haven't had much of a chance to read many of the other entries - which character did you go with in the end? (That said, I'm sure you have the points to bring in a whole team!)

I had Tsunami wake up in a bed inside the Spire. Think of it like the Baxter Building of the Fantastic Four, only located on the west coast than the east.

Is the Spire the All Stars' base? Should be quite interesting seeing what happens to them in a world where the ordinary people don't like heroes anymore...

It has always been a science institution before the All-Stars used it as their HQ and still has been even when they disappeared.

Got it! I see I have a fair bit of catching up to do! Did you have enough points to bring them all back, or are some missing in the new DU?

The All-Stars that are in the DU are all back in one piece, thankfully.

Is that all the ones I drew in that commission? Or are there some non-DU all stars?
π: 0 β©: 1
There are at least 3 other non-DU All-Stars that haven't made an appearance, but they will once I work up enough points to bring them in.

Trying to outnumber everyone else, eh? Well, good luck!

I'm pretty close, since I've been doing so much work for the DU.

I'll have to ask you for info later on then I suspect - even with the recent streamlining it still seems pretty huge!

Fine with me. I can make time for that.
