And with this splash page we officially wrap up “Leave It All On the Court.” I hope people enjoyed this one. This is the second comic I’ve approached in this style, the first being “Closing Time,” and I think they’ve been largely successful comics both in audience reception and in overall turnaround. That being said, while I would like to do more like this, I will probably wait a bit before starting the next one until my schedule clears up a little bit.

So this is the penultimate page for this comic. The story and action are basically wrapped here, but there’s one last little epilogue thing I wanna do. Hopefully it won’t be too terribly long before I get that page out.

As you might expect, we’re winding down on this project. There’s still a couple pages to go, but I hope y’all are still enjoying the ride.

Here’s the seventh page of this comic! Where’ back over to the hoop, and we’ll be staying here for a bit.

Here’s the sixth page of “Leave It All On the Court.” Not much to add here, but Yoinks and Maki seem to be having fun.

Here’s the fifth page of Leave It All On the Court! Now that Maki’s all warmed up, they can move back to fucking. This first panel is one of the catalysts for the concept behind this comic, and I’m happy to finally get it out.

And here’s page four, with Yoinks returning the favor to Maki before they move back to the fucking.

Also, for anyone interested, here is the Q&A video I did for Subscribers last month:

Here’s the third page, where Maki convinces Yoinks to go at a more reasonable pace.

I hope nobody had their hopes up for several pages of intense basketball action. Instead, we’re skipping the action to get right to the action. I don’t think Maki’s going to put up with this from Yoinks for long, though, so expect things to slow back down a bit in the next page.

So this is an idea I had a while ago, but never did anything with. I couldn’t tell you where it started, but the image of Maki and Yoinks playing some one-on-one just felt kinda right to me. I didn’t have anywhere to use the concept, really, but after doing Closing Time I decided to try and make this work following the approach I did for that comic. This page is a little more complex than any I did for Closing Time, and it won’t be the way the rest of the comic looks, but I wanted to get some stuff out of the way so the rest of the pages can be focused on the action.
