Here comes Susannah.

First to say I really liked the cover of it. Having known the story of Odetta and Detta, it was a pleasure to find it reflected in the cover art, together with obvious feminine motives.
Writers decided to go again with the linear representation of Odetta's life, so after the episode at the beginning, we get to follow her from her childhood. Yet the art is very much different than in the Eddie's story arc. Here are the watercolors that settle the mood and reflect the dominant personality. The lines are going from sharp to blurry sketches and back. There is the constant duality and it works a wonder. Great start of the new arc.
