Bought another S&S comic/manga where characters just pose instead of act? Brotherhood of the Wolf: Ottoman Empire S&S that puts you IN the scene, not watching from outside. Unlettered (for now) page from Issue#3: Panel 1, crew notices something, looking at us. Panel 2, camera shifts behind them, suddenly you're looking WITH them at the prisoner. You just lived a POV shift without realizing it. That's what we call immersion, habibi. Issues 1-2 bundled now, get it before Issue 3 drops :

In the Islamic law, it is a requirement to use water to clean oneself after answering the call of nature. Using toilet paper alone is insufficient. Fox News Boomers and ZOGbots will claim this is an example of “creeping sharia”. But these bitches have skid marks the size of NASCAR tracks, so why would you listen to them? #creepingsharia
