We're back!
"Empowered" is Adam Warren's ongoing graphic novel series following the adventures of the titular (insecure) superheroine. Expect laughs, satire of the superhero genre, and drama out of left field.
Oh, and a lot of bondage. (Less, now that we're moving past the early volumes.)
Feel free to comment and respond as much as you like - discussion is what makes a storytime fun, after all. If it goes for a while without anyone other than me posting, a bump would obviously be appreciated.
Last time, Emp dealt with more self-esteem issues, we got more of a glimpse into Thugboy's chequered past, and the Superhomeys discovered the backlog of yaoi doujins based on them. Oh, and Ninjette was captured and nearly made into into a double amputee by scary ninjas, before Emp (or rather her suit) OMGWTFblasted them into oblivion. That happened too.
Let's kick Volume 4 off!

This is the volume where I feel everything starts to get good. All the stories aren't quite as refined as the later stuff, but you can certainly see things start to layer on each other, and there's some direction, instead of just "Action scene, flashback, dream sequence, action scene, flashback, jackalopes, repeat."
Can't stick around tonight, OP, but thanks again.

>>87251423
I don't really like the thick version of Emp, it really just does look fat to me but I have to admit it makes way more sense. Its one thing for Emp to think she's fat when she's thin but for other people to call her fat? At least thick Emp has grounds for her insecurities and it makes her more visually distinct from Ninjette and Sistah Spooky, they'd all have different body types.
>>
>>87260225
>Emp's figure is rounding out more because Sistah Spooky is sending excess body fat to her
It's even justified in canon!

I wonder....
I wonder if the suit turning invisible is the secret to overcoming the fragility of it.
IE, turning the suit invisible also 'phases' it somehow, so that it can no longer be damaged.
So, the only way for Elissa to truly tap the full power of the suit in a reliable fashion...is to super it up in the nude.
Oh, see, that would be hilarious.

Perhaps more a classic case of wish fulfillment not fixing one's problems. Her problems are with self perception, and that's an internal issue rather than an external one. Suddenly becoming sexy like her would give anyone a confidence boost in the short term, but in the long term they'll go back to feeling inadequate without fixing the internal perception of themselves.
>>
>>87274884
Come to think of something...
Are there any other black or mulatto characters in this comic apart from Spooky?
Hard to tell using skin shading, I guess, cause they're all about the same in greyscale.

Which brings us tidily to the end of Volume 4. Gonna be a short hiatus before I forge ahead with #5 - will probably resume with a new thread on Sunday night, or failing that, Monday.

Well, he's gained a reader here, but why do the character's mouths look like anuses?
>>
>>87282076
just a stylistic thing, seems to bother some people a lot more than others. i barely even noticed until i saw people complaining about it here, and even after having it pointed out to me i don't really get the fuss. works with his overall style imo.
>>
>>87282076
That and the Voldemort noses really bothered me alot too at the beginning. Took me a while but I got used to it. Although whenever I start thinking about it too much it starts weirding me out again.
Emp's lips are super-elastic, like a hair scrunchy. If she's not actively making an expression with her mouth her lips just bunch together on their own.

It's time to start shipping Emp and Manny. The edgiest ship!

So is 2spoopy an actual magic user or did she get all her power from selling her soul?
>>
>>87283621
I dont believe magic is all that hard in the Empoweredverse.
She got her hands on a summoning ritual and got her powers by selling her soul.
So i guess the answer is yes and yes.

As I recall, the suit showed up in a FedEx envelope, which dropped out of a huge cloudmass like that.
Was the suit prepping to evac if Emp had quit caping?
>>

Yeah, Thugboy brooding angrily about capes is a baaaad sign.
I'd wager right about here is where he started 'supplementing' his stash of super goodies for sale.
>>
>>87278485
>How old do you think he was at this point, late teens?
He looks maybe sixteen here? Would make him twenty-two which gibes nicely with Elissa's age. (She's 21 as I recall.)

I habe to say
All these panels are extremely motherfucking well drawn.
The anatomy and inking skills are TOP
beside the fact that he draws frog faces on purpose.

The style kinda bothered me at first, especially the pout lips, but I've quickly come to really really appreciate it. Still not huge on the pout lips, but I love the way he draws open and wide mouths.

True story.
This comic isn't inked.
Adam Warren is so skilled, he draws this in pencil, straight on top of his layout sketches, fixes it, reproduces it, and sells it.
These pages are all nothing but pencils and massive gobs of raw talent.
Holy shit.

All things considered, I figure that Thugboy's military unit was the "kludgemind" experiment that created Willy Pete, and that Pete is a projection of his psyche, hence all the "hauntings" by said character.

I hope that one day he gets to tenderly caress Emp's body with his hundreds of kilograms' worth of alien-cancer-tentacles. In a totally 'non-sexual platonically worshipping his idol' way of course!

>>87284554
How? She was only fat in HS because of malevolent magical mojo illicitly imposing itself and the fat of an entire student body onto her and she STILL didn't become Jabba the hut. The only reason she isn't also a muscular tomboy is that she (at least currently due to demonic magic power) probably doesn't exercise that much.
>>
>>87251601
A shame she didn't remember doing that back during volume one.
>>
>>87277628
They generally know they can take down anyone they pull that on. EMP is a special case in that she would actually be able to pull off a Carrie if they actually enraged her to that point.
>>87265784
Generic cowboy to me. I can't think of anything more specific to describe it right now.
>>
>>87291492
Somehow i forgot about the fat imposing part of it and thought all the implied binge-eating over the years would catch up to her
But now that I think about it all that fat is gone forever, probably onto the other Superhomies.
>>
>>87292630
>she would actually be able to pull off a Carrie if they actually enraged her to that point.
"Hey, Demonwolf. You still up for destroying the world?"
Honestly, I'm wondering down the line, which character is gonna cross the despair event horizon and become the new vessel of the Malignant Malefactor.

Fuck, if he ever gets free, could he even go back to being evil? He's just too good at anti-heroics.oh god he's going to pull a noble sacrifice someday isn't he? Don't tell me, I don't think I could take the spoils
>>
>>87293249
I hope he's not just going to noble sacrifice himself, feels like it would cheapen his character. although yeah, i do see it going that direction.
I'm really hoping that he'll still remain 'evil' relative to us though.
Sure he's got some attachment to the monkies, enough to desire to see their filthy copulation and spend a few minutes in each day to yarnspin at them and even shore up their gradually collapsing ego-structures. when they need it.
But how much of this behavior is because he's trapped in the belt on the coffeetable? Does he really care about the Empettes, or are they just a diversion he uses to pass the time?
And even if he does care about them, does his concept of care line up with theirs? Can it be replicated and reciprocated?
>>
>>87281244
The rest of the attendees may not have seen everything, but most of them at least had to know that a) she was one of the only non-powerless capes left standing (much less fighting), and b) she was the only that went backstage to stop whoever was behind the attack.
of course, it could just turn out like when she bested the then-Uncaged Demonwolf, where everybody goes back to treating her like shit almost immediately despite owing her their lives...

But it's easy now. Thugboy's a member of the group now. He can have Emp ask about the name, go on heronet and do some research on the guy like what powers and weaknesses he has. And then BAM! when you shoot him in the toilet! Cut him up into easily carriable pieces and cut all his major muscle groups to prevent function if he reanimates, and then you cane take the corpose away to dispose at your leisure!
The dream is closer now than it's ever been!
>>
>>87293628
Oh, I know he's still sinister as hell at times, and he's privy to nearly all their secrets (including their actual privies) which he does like to leverage against them on occasion.
But even if if it's just a long-game ploy, why would he bother trying to help keep these mewling, malodorous mammals together? Surely, the Supreme Swallower of Stars would be better served by a slow-burning strategem of sowing strife and sundering the simple-minded simians' sickeningly sweet ship of friends?
INDEED WHAT BENEFITS HE, THE DREAD COSMIC CALAMITY, FROM THE CONTINUED CAMERADERIE OF THE FLAXEN-HAIRED WENCH, HER PROFOUNDLY P-WHIPPED BOY OF THUG, AND THEIR THOROUGHLY THIRSTY THIRD WHEEL WHOSE NAME NEED NOT BE SPOKEN (FOR INDEED, IS IT NOT ALREADY EMBLAZONED 'PON HER PRODIGIOUS POSTERIOR)? SURELY, THE CRUMBLING OF SHIP RELATIONS (AND SUBSEQUENT CRUMBLING OF SELF -WORTH) WOULD AFFORD HIM THE GREATER CHANCE OF PARLEYING HIS EGRESS FROM THE WRETCHED DEVICE OF BONDAGE ALIEN, BY WAY OF HIS INCONCEIVABLE INTELLECT AND HIS JAILER'S FRAGILE, FRACTURED EGO?!
BAH.
>>
>>87279041
Most likely because it doesn't want to, It's sentient after all.
>>87277302
Rivet is not against Emp, he just doesn't actively help her enough, sort of on the edge there.
Dr Mclargehuge and the ubernurses are def. on Emp's camp after this volume

>Cut him up into easily carriable pieces and cut all his major muscle groups to prevent function if he reanimates, and then you cane take the corpose away to dispose at your leisure!
You've thought about this.
I approve.
Although honestly, I'm dying to learn more about Thugboy's past, it's obvious that some REALLY BAD SHIT happened. I mean, we know the Superhomies busted out their super-alien super-weapon to put a stop to the uprising in San Antonio, with disastrous consequences, but how the fuck did a bunch of normals with (admittedly large) guns take it to such a bad place?
Also, Makro is cute, and I hope she shows up again.

That's impossible. You can't scan that to publish it without smudging everything all to fuck. Is that how he gets all those soft lines like the tips of characters hair? Fuck me if that's true, I've never heard of such wizardry, sauce?
>>
>>87295051
He uses Ninja tricks
(Works with a cutout piece of paper covering finished artwork, and probably some other tricks. There's a spray you can use to fix pencil to paper too)
>>
>>87295051
>That's impossible.
Maybe for normal artists, but this is Adam Warren, who is not a normal artist.
>You can't scan that to publish it without smudging everything all to fuck.
Note I said, "fix it" above. A quick spritz of hairspray or actual fixative is all it takes.
>Is that how he gets all those soft lines like the tips of characters hair?
Why yes, yes it is.
>Fuck me if that's true, I've never heard of such wizardry, sauce?
He's mentioned several times that the only reason he's able to make any money at all on Empowered is because he skips so many steps in the 'normal' process.
And his art is so amazing, it still looks incredible.
Empowered is a real treasure, I hope he's able to finish it before he kicks off.

>Empowered is a real treasure, I hope he's able to finish it before he kicks off.
He's not THAT old, but considering neither was Steve Dillon... ;_;

There it is.
This is the page that got me to read Empowered.
I saw posted alone in a thread years ago, and had to know what the fuck was going on.
Glad I did.
>>
>>87295051
Theres spray that prevents smudging, plus it can also be a mixed technique with some bottled ink and charcoal thrown into the mix somewhere.
>>
DID Empowered win any awards? Let's check!
Oh, it didn't...
Fuck, now I feel like I need to buy all the paperbacks once I have money again just to help out Adam and Dark Horse a little bit.

Adam Warren is theweeaboo Alan Moore!He's actually more like Morrison or Ellis sci-fi writing-wise. But the writing is not self-absorbed enough to come across as wanting to be taken seriously. Objectively Livewires is less silly than Transmetropolitan for example.

Emp is really and truly too good for this world.

>>87298712
>Note that I said “almost upsetting,” as I myself have all the emotional range and intensity of a piece of 2 X 4, being the burnt-out, half-alive, zombie-like shell of a man that I am. My only moods are several Disney dwarfs: Sleepy, Grumpy, Dopey—and Bashful, I suppose, when I must interrupt my isolated, “hissing recluse” lifestyle to attempt interaction with other humans. In truth, my depiction of Emp’s occasional emotional volatility is drawn in part from my twenty-something experiences of interacting with people who clearly experienced a far more—might I say, dramatically more?—dynamic emotional range than I ever did. While such “feels-intensive” folks undoubtedly nurture a richer and deeper and fuller inner life than I do, I gotta say that the experience appears arduous and even grueling to this emotional flatliner’s introverted eye. (I recall almost blurting in the presence of a certain highly emotive artist friend of mine—male, I feel I should add—“Man, it must be exhausting to be so g-d complicated.”) Rather, I prefer to write about characters who enjoy more dynamic emotional ranges than my own, with Emp being a key example of the trend for me.
