Sometimes I wish I could run the script for a page or panel alongside the art. I write full scripts including panel descriptions for my stories, even though I'm the artist too; and in some instances I become (sometimes overly) fond of the descriptions I write into my scripts.

Such as the description I wrote for this panel. Unfortunately the phrase I like most here can't be expressed in dialogue, and using a caption here would seem out of place given the largely caption-free approach to telling the story I'm using here. (My favorite line is indicated in blue text.)

PANEL 4: Pulling up her shorts, Tetsuko turns and faces Winston, her eyes burning with defiance. (Or something, her eyes are definitely burning...)

3. TETSUKO: You BASTARD! I HATE you!!!
