Transcript

Panel 1:

A woman in a green outfit (Lethal Librarian) stands with her fist clenched. Around her, books are flying through the air. A minotaur wearing green plaid boxers (Angus) recoils in terror.
Cassie Cruz: “What’s happening?!”
Jeremy:
“Lethal Librarian has two main attacks — Check-in and Check-out! — This looks like the former. Using Check-in, she can convey his essence into the world created by any book.”

Panel 2:
A woman with blonde hair and a blue and yellow superhero outfit (Lightning Lady) shouts angrily, face in close-up.
Lightning Lady: “NO! You’ve got the wrong man!”

Panel 3:
Lightning Lady is confronted by Lethal Librarian, who points accusingly.
Lethal Librarian: “How can you defend him?! You caught him cheating on you!”

Panel 4:
Lightning Lady: “Angus is the most honest, loyal, trustworthy man I know.”

Panel 5:
Angus is sucked into a glowing red book titled “Death in the Afternoon,” his body disappearing as red light surrounds him.

Panel 6:
The book now lies closed and giant-sized on the floor, with “Death in the Afternoon – Ernest Hemingway” on the spine. Lethal Librarian and Lightning Lady look on.
Lethal Librarian: “Now he’s a doorstop.”
