blaqwing asked: When you were writing the ending to the Ares vs Sentry fight in Siege 2 how did you describe the ending to Coipel?
the formatting falls apart on tumblr but here is the script…
Page 16- 17
Double page spread
1- Ext. Asgard
High looking down on Iron Patriot. He is flying up to the battle. Moonstone/ Ms. Marvel at his side. She is as shocked to be looking up to see the horror that is about to happen.
MOONSTONE @#$%, is he going to-?
2- Ext. Sky
Ares is struggling. Fighting with his last breath. The Sentry has him in a death grip.
ARES Ggkk!!
3- Big panel. Across both pages.
The Sentry pulls Ares apart. Just Like he pulled Carnage apart in the first New Avengers arc. A bloody, horrible explosion. The Sentry’s face a blank emotionless void.
Ares is dead.
Olivier- the rest on this spread looks like a crossword puzzle of little square reaction shots of all the players. With a smattering of the squares blacked out completely. Representing the void.
If you want to bleed this motif under the larger panels. Go right ahead.
The pieces of the reaction montage include:
17.
4- Hawkeye/ Bullseye has his arrow up, but he saw it. Ares is dead. Even the psycho Hawkeye takes pause at the shocking sight.
5- Maria hill at the window of a hotel with high powered binoculars. Mouth open.
6- High looking down at the stunned gathered townspeople.
7- The press on the ground. Their mouths wide open.
8- Venom is eating a horse but pauses to see the insanity.
9- The reporters on the roof. Not sure what they have seen.
10- The Ufoes. Look at each other. Is this where they want to be?
11- Balder, his sword covered in blood, is horrified.
12- Sif is getting her second wind but stops to see…
13- The Taskmaster is looking for his next fight. Panicked
14- Iron Patriot is stoic. Emboldened.
15- Heimdell is feeling every second of the mental and physical pain. He cries out in anguish.
16- Tight on the Sentry. Who is now almost completely the void. He turns and looks down. Right for us. Like the reader may be next.
