PAGE 2 - PANEL A Kobra and Dorothy are clustered in the middle of the frame, as there is a lot of text on either side, and a bit over them. They are sitting at a table outside a cafe. Each has a white paper cup of coffee with a black plastic lid, and each has one cupcake. The cupcakes are chocolate (brown) with light purple frosting. Kobra is on the left, and Dorothy is on the right. SUNDAY, JULY 12TH, 2015. 9:12 AM. KOBRA OLYMPUS AND HER GIRLFRIEND DOROTHY DIAMOND ARE ON A MORNING COFFEE AND CUPCAKE DATE AT CAFÉ AMORCITO IN THE BELLTOWN NEIGHBORHOOD OF SEATTLE. KOBRA: I DON’T KNOW, I FEEL UNTETHERED. I’VE NEVER GONE THIS LONG WITHOUT GETTING A NOTE FROM THE FUTURE. DOROTHY: MAYBE IT MEANS YOU’RE DOING A GOOD JOB. NO NEED TO CHANGE THE PAST IF YOU NAILED IT THE FIRST TIME. PAGE 2 - PANEL B We’re now much closer to the pair. We are most focused on Kobra, with Dorothy on the right. Kobra looks upset and worried. Dorothy is more casual, taking a sip of her coffee. KOBRA: THE MESSAGES FROM THE FUTURE GAVE ME COMFORT, LIKE I WAS BEING GUIDED. SFX: SIP PAGE 2 - PANEL C We’re the same distance from Kobra and Dorothy, but we’ve turned to face Dorothy instead, and Kobra is on the left. Kobra has just taken a bite of her cupcake. Kobra is thinking deeply about what Dorothy is saying. Dorothy is smiling, trying to comfort her worried girlfriend. DOROTHY: YOU’RE NOT JUST KOBRA OLYMPUS ANYMORE, YOU’RE AGENT THA. TIME CORPS AGENTS FROM THE DEEP FUTURE TRUSTED YOU WITH THE HIGH-TECH PHONE AND ITS SECRET APP FOR A REASON. YOU’RE TRUSTWORTHY.

Saturn is on the right, facing left and forward, holding a shovel. They both look very happy. LATER, SATURN AND JIM ARE SETTING TRAPS JIM: IT’S SO BEAUTIFUL THAT TWO MEN CAN HAVE A BABY. DESPITE TRYING, BO AND I JUST DON’T HAVE THE TACKLE. SATURN: YOU COULD ALWAYS ADOPT. PAGE 8 - PANEL B Closeup of Jim. His body is facing the left, and he’s looking over his left shoulder at Saturn. His head is mostly facing the viewers, with his eyes all the way to the right. JIM: SOUNDS NICE, BUT FROM WHERE? ORPHANAGES DON’T EVEN CONSIDER TWO MEN TO BE A FAMILY. PAGE 8 - PANEL C Closeup of Saturn, looking less assured and more concerned/defensive. SATURN: LOTS OF ORPHANS WHO AREN’T IN ORPHANAGES. YOU NEVER KNOW.

Ash looks concerned and a little upset, while Laney is listening earnestly and sincerely. They each carry a small wooden bucket of rags which are soaked in blood. They’re tossing the bloody rags from the buckets onto the ground. MEANWHILE, ASH AND LANEY SPREAD RAGS SOAKED IN HUMAN BLOOD TO ATTRACT THE VAMPIRES. ASH: I TRUST GOD THAT BEING PREGNANT IS WHAT’S RIGHT FOR ME. BUT . . . IT DOES MAKE ME FEEL LIKE THE WOMANHOOD I TRIED TO LEAVE BEHIND HAS CAUGHT UP WITH ME. PAGE 7 - PANEL B Closeup of Laney, who is trying to be a good friend and give good advice. Comforting, but a little stern. LANEY: THE WITCHES OF THE ORDER GIVE YOU MASCULINIZING POTIONS, AND GIVE ME FEMINIZING POTIONS. PAGE 7 - PANEL C Slightly zoomed out from the last panel so we can see Ash listening intently. LANEY: BUT WE CAN’T CHANGE OUR GUTS. I’LL NEVER HAVE THE ORGANS TO BECOME PREGNANT MYSELF. PAGE 7 - PANEL D Ash on the left, Laney in the center, with the right reserved for the speech bubble. Laney and Ash are smiling modestly, connecting over their transness. LANEY: MY POINT IS, I’M A WOMAN EVEN IF I CAN’T HAVE A BABY. AND YOU’RE A MAN EVEN IF YOU CAN. THAT’S NOT WHAT DEFINES US.

On the left is the cover of Legendary X-Knights #2. The text is as follows: LEGENDARY X-KNIGHTS THREE MARTIAL ARTISTS OF DIFFERENT AGES AND BACKGROUNDS TRANSFORM INTO ARMORED DEMIGODS 100% FUNDED We are having a Kickstarter to publish the First Edition of this comic, with a gold border on the cover so that it is a prized collectible for years to come. Imperialism has been destroying the world. Our siblings in Palestine, Ukraine, and now Venezuela are suffering at the hands of a military-industrial complex that covers the world. Now the imperialist nations are sabre-rattling at Mexico, Cuba, Colombia, and Taiwan. Gender non-conforming people of every age are being targeted for discrimination and even violence on every continent on this planet. Even countries which were once welcoming are now turning against their own citizens for expressing their gender and sexuality differently than the norm. I can't stop this alone. But I do have a voice. I can write stories. And my friend Swaptrap can bring these stories to life with his illustrations. Join me in a chorus to raise our voices and speak out against this rise of hatred by bringing to life this story of resistance. Just as Superman and Captain America once inspired the American public to fight against fascism, we can use these characters and stories to inspire the next generation to reject hatred and use our collective power for peace.
Three panels from the comic Legendary X-Knights #2 PAGE 13 - PANEL A We’re back in the lab.

RK: SURRENDER NOW, ORANGE ROC! WE’RE ARMED NOW! ¡RÍNDETE AHORA, ROC NARANJA! ¡AHORA ESTAMOS ARMADOS! PAGE 13 - PANEL B Very close up to the Orange Roc’s face/helmet/visor. We are looking up at her from an angle, to give her a dominating presence. OK: THIS IS THE LAST MISTAKE YOU’LL EVER MAKE . . . ESTE ES EL ÚLTIMO ERROR QUE USTEDES COMETERÁN . . . PAGE 13 - PANEL C The three hero Knights are ready to attack in the upper left corner. The Blue SeaSerpent is on the left, the Red Dragon is in the middle, and the Pink Unicorn is on the right. They are holding their weapons. The Orange Roc, holding the Roc Halberd with both hands, is flying down to attack the other three. She is taking up the majority of the frame as we look over her from behind. SFX: WOOSH
