"Where do you think the big players get their nukes and Xenonite and death rays and laser grade Diamandium? At a black auction"
This will end up being a double page spread, I'll set the pages up with the text on the Gun Page tomorrow . . .
Little change of pace, this and the next page are digitally colored.
Fear not, in the comic's DNA is the whole watercolor/analog technique, but for this little bit when Rook is breaking down the plan, I pictured it rolling out like a Steven Soderbergh montage, kind of slick and glossy, very Ocean's 11.

The link image is an outtake, I decided after I inked and painted the first third of the page that I kind of liked the pencil roughs better. The Agent's apartment is meant to look chaotic and unkempt and I kind of wanted the pages to match that texturally with the art.
The bead curtain, did you ever see the Luc Besson movie 'the Professional' (called 'Leon' out of the states or by film snobs)? It was Natalie Portman's first movie? Well anyway, there's this great scene where Gary Oldman's hand snakes though this bead curtain and I wanted to capture some of that eloquence, which is hard to do in a single panel, versus a motion picture.
