An illustration in red, green, and yellow of several characters from ATOMIC ROBO's REAL SCIENCE ADVENTURES: THE NICODEMUS JOB. The camera is above a narrow staircase packed with books. Two characters are traveling up towards the camera, but their attention is on the novels. In the back a third is carrying a heft of books out of scene. A bright light hangs above the stairway.

A black and white illustration of a theater backstage. The camera is looking slightly upwards, with a curvature to the lines like a fish eye lens. At the front, looking down at the audience is Orio, the lead from the webcomic HINGES. She's a doll with reticulated joints.
