If you remember this page from the first edition (in which it was signal -11-), you’ll notice right off the bat that the last two panels have been dropped and replaced with an exterior shot of the Sabrosa. There’s a damned good reason for that – the original panel three stinks to high heavens. When this scene was originally-originally created (oppose originally edited), the ship CG didn’t exist yet, so the idea of doing exterior shots wasn’t something that occurred to me on a regular basis. While the fit feels slightly clunky, the redone page is so much better than the original that I’m not going to get all hung up on it.
