Battle of Wits #Amelbury

panel 1-2 - a shot from above showing both Ormer and Prime-Ape in astonishment while a figure floats above them. The figure says "Tsk Tsk Tsk"

panel 3- The figure is shown to be some kind of chimpanzee wearing a lab coat who has a clear dome exposing his brain underneath. He is floating above Prime-Ape, who has mechanical limbs unfolding out from behind her. He shouts antagonistically beneath himself, "Prime-Ape once again saving humans!"

panel 4-5 - first a closeup of his villainous face before the next panel he begins to monologue. Prime-Ape's mechanical limbs are lifting her off the ground from below.

He continues, "Your sympathy, it's pathetic. it's what makes you weak. Your love for these lowly humans has slowed you down!"

a single splash page featuring Prime-Ape below shouting up at the dastardly Dr. Omega above.

Prime-Ape - "The Wheel of Justice may turn slowly, but it arrives just the same!"

Dr. Omega - "Ah, but the Slope of Evil is too steep for your wheel to climb!"

Prime-Ape - "Good uses the Four-Wheeled Drive of Justice with the Traction Tires of Truth!"

Dr. Omega - "Fool! Crime is the ice that will slide you to your demise!"

Prime-Ape - "As long as there is virtue, it will always be the anti-freeze to your schemes, Dr. Omega!"

Just Like TV #Amelbury

Amelbury Chapter 1, pg 13 and 14

panel 1-2 - Prime-Ape stands, shadows grow to create a serious tone as she stares dead on

panel 3 - the superhero lights up with a grand smile while she says, "No problem!"

panel 4 - Ormer watches kinda awkwardly while Prime-Ape points towards the air in a declarative manner away from him while saying, "For it is that a hero never rests, never sleeps... does not even sit for a moment until the innocents of our society are safe from the clutches of evil!"

panel 5 - Ormer has a wide smile on his face, agreeing with Prime-Ape. His thoughts however read, "Oh my gosh, she actually talks like this in real life? I thought the shows were just exaggerating."

panel 6- we cut back to Prime-Ape, who seems even more sure of herself, declaring, "Glad to hear not everyone has stopped believing in heroes!"

panel 7- her eyes widen as a large BOOM takes up the frame behind her

panel 8 - Both Ormer and the heroine, Prime-Ape, turn to where the sound came from.

panel 5- Ormer stares on at the wreckage while a hand extends behind him

panel 6-7 - Prime-Ape stares down at him, half of her body cast in shadow from the fire nearby. She is still extending a hand to Ormer to help him to his feet.
She says, "Are you okay, citizen?"

panel 8- Ormer accepts the hand while thinking, "Prime-Ape"

panel 9- now on his feet, Ormer stand a bit awkwardly. He finally responds to Prime-Ape, "uh yeah, thanks."
